Rapid application development by KEKB accelerator operators using EPICS/Python

  • 1. Mitsubishi Electric System and Service Co., Ltd., Tsukuba, Ibaraki (Japan)

Description

In the KEKB accelerator facility, the control system is constructed based on the framework of EPICS. By using EPICS/Python API, which is originated from KEK, we can develop an EPICS channel access application based on simple Python technology with only a few knowledge of EPICS channel access protocols. The operator's new tuning ideas are quickly implemented to the control system. In this paper, we introduce the EPICS/Python API and report the effectiveness of rapid application development by the KEKB operators using the API. (author)
