BEST
The non-critical tasks are, as mentioned earlier, performed in the embedded industrial
PC running a Linux OS. The communication between the PC and the FPGA is
performed trough a PCI Express protocol, therefore all elaborated data and
configurations of the high speed hardware are accessible from the dedicated Linux
graphic software. The
which allows to:
• configure the
• configure the system feedback actuation (i.e. PID parameters, detector
configuration);
• monitor main physical quantities data (i.e raw
position and intensity, FFT, CSP);
• control the beam position with a simple "point and click positioning" feature
or by entering a setpoint manually.
Remote control of the Central Unit is also possible using a dedicated EPICS driver
using a standard 10/100/1000 Ethernet link. This provides the possibility to connect
the
BEST
Central Unit directly to the beamline control system.
