Description

In this paper, we report a mirror box platform for controlling the beamline mirrors in visual and remote mode at Beijing Synchrotron Radiation Facility (BSRF). The platform is based on Client/Device Server structure and, to ensure the safety, only the clients examined by Server can access the devices. The 3D mirror adjustments and simple ASCII message protocol are designed for implement of the platform control in visual and remote mode. Test results show that the time to update the position status is 0.2 s and the position error in visual control is less than 5%. The performance meets requirements of the mirror box control in BSRF beam lines. By increasing the device drivers in the server and developing programs in the clients, the platform can be used to control the whole beam line. (authors)
