The LEAR control system - phase II

  • 1. European Organization for Nuclear Research, Geneva (Switzerland)

Description

The LEAR control system and its current status are described briefly. The system consists today of two interconnected PDP 11/73's and one microVAX in an Ethernet-like local area network. For real-time requirements, CAMAC-based microprocessor systems are used. The main point of the paper is the description of an evolutive data base architecture where the emphasis is on access to accelerator physics parameters rather than to power supply parameters.
