AT Control activities

Introduction The Control activities within the AT Department for the LHC, the injectors and the test facilities are coordinated by the at control forum wich... is responsible for coordination of the overall strategy for controls activities in the AT Department. provides a forum for discussion of controls issues between equipment groups and the AB Control group. is the alter ego of the AB Control Coordination COmitee (CO 3 ) reports to the MARIC and to AB-CO Group Leader. can make recommendations for decision by the MARIC and AB-CO GL

Covered Topics Identify current and future activities in the AT Department which will involve significant controls effort in AB-CO. Identify resource both in AT groups & AB-CO for new projects including controls. PS renovation, SM18 evolution Coordinate the controls part of these activities to maximize effectiveness and avoid conflicts due to deployment of new hardware, software or tools. Conflict hardware commissioning /usual shutdown activities Promote the control solutions developed by AB-CO for the AT activities to avoid the multiplication of concurrent solutions and development efforts. LSA, FESA, UNICOS,... PLC, VME, Industrial PC,... Identify new control requirements relatives to specific AT activities. Identify the major priorities in the services requested from the CO group, and verify that CO can deliver what is required.

Meetings & Membership Chairman : Philippe Gayet AB-CO-IS Secretary : Hubert Raymond AB-CO-MA Representatives from each of the following groups of the AT Department (from the controls section when possible): ACR, ECR, MCS, MEL, MTM VAC Meetings 3 common meetings in dedicated meetings with all groups as theses groups do not share the same philosophy Outcome On report on the control needs for AT in to be presented soon

AT Control Activities (MEL-MTM) MEL (No control section, only expert for FIP agent) Quench protection system FESA application in Gateway (IS) FIP installation (FE) PVSS support, (IS) hardware commissioning (IS, AP) DB support (DM) FIP agent development Logging (DM) Post mortem (MA) Interconnection to machine interlock (MI) No new projects

AT Control Activities (ACR-ECR) ACR (existing Control section ACR-IN 1-2 PLC expert, FIP agent expert, polish team for HC) refrigerator controls PLC UNICOS developement & maintenance (IS) PVSS UNICOS (IS) sector controls PLC UNICOS, (IS for the tools) (ACR-IN polish team for the logic) PVSS UNICOS (IS + polish team for panel design) FESA application in Gateway (IS) PVSS UNICOS application for CIET (IS) FIP agent (ACR IN) DB support (DM,ACR-IN) Logging (DM) Post mortem (MA) New projects using UNICOS renovation ABB SM18 (IS) Cryogenics for NEW SM18 (IS) ECR (existing control section 3 PLC expert, 1 supervision) Development of PLC application using UNICOS + PVSS synoptic & configuration (AT-ECR) Support Refrigerator and proximity cryogenics PLC UNICOS, (IS) PVSS (IS) Logging (DM) New project using UNICOS (ECR) NA 48 Control North area renovation This 2 groups have started a merging process we are involved in the discussion to determine the new responsibility repartition

AT Control Activities (VAC) VAC (existing control section 2/3 + russian collaboration for supervision) PLC development not unicos (VAC) PLC support a la Guapi (IS) PVSS partially unicos dedicated user interface (IS+ Russian team) Present Vacuum Control for PS (FE) Logging (DM) Configuration database (VAC) New project : PS renovation using LHC solution

AB-CO-IS CERN wide PLC support gestion technique des contrats PLC Schneider et Siemens animation du Groupe des utilisateurs PLC support CERNwide pour les PLC support CERNwide pour Profibus UNICOS Développement du framework UNICOS pour PVSS (utilise JCOP et le spécialise) Intégration de PVSS au système de control LHC Développement du framework UNICOS pour les PLC en vue de sa généralisation Développement des applicatifs suivants Cryo processus pour réfrigérateurs plc et pvss Cryo instrumentation pour GW fesa FIP et PVSS QPS GW fesa et PVSS PIC/WIC PVSS Electrical circuit diagnostics (PVSS) Survey PVSS et GW en collaboration avec FE Environnement Collimateur (plc+pvss) Solution de base pour moteur pas a pas Support des développeurs UNICOS AT-ACR pour cryo secteur AT-ECR pour cryo expérience AT-VAC pour PVSS PH- TA3 pour magnet control system IT-CO-FE pour GCS

MA (measurment & analysis) Développement des applications C ou Labview pour les bancs de test aimant situe au CERN ou dans lindustrie. Mesure magnétique et optique etc. Développement des outils de post mortem pour le Hardware commissioning

Les autres sections de AB-CO sont partiellement concernées MI cette section est en charge des interlocks pour la LHC il y a des similitudes entre les systèmes PIX et WIC et le projet DSS même PLC supervision par PVSS mais implémentation logicielle différentes. Pour cette section il ya sans doute des possibilités de convergence et de mise en commun sison des développements mais au moins de la maintenance des systèmes FE est en charge de la mise a disposition des front end et du Framework FESA qui a un certain recouvrement avec SILK je nai pas dinformation sur lusage de ce framework me terme de nombre de système concernés IN est en charge de CMW middleware de communication à linstar de IT-CO pour DIP/DIM
