Description
The old radiation dose rate monitor system of the Hefei Light Source (HLS) was designed for the decay operation mode. To better serve for user experiments, the HLS is undergoing an upgrade for the top-off operation mode. In order to meet the requirement of the top-off operation, the radiation dose rate monitor system is overhauled in the upgrade. The new system is developed based upon the Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System (EPICS), and is comprised of the detectors, communication modules, data sampling and monitoring software, and data analysis system. This system can be used not only to monitor the radiation dose rate in the light source and surrounding areas, but also to perform integral dose calculation, history data query and interlock protections. More than three months of operation indicates that this system is reliable and well fulfills the demand of the top-off operation of the HLS. (authors)
