Description
A computer control system of the JT-60 neutral beam injection system(NBI) is presented. The neutral beam system consists of 14 beam line units with 28 ion sources. The computer system supports system monitoring and ion source operation. Although our usual neutral beam system had been needed at least two operators for operating one unit, at the JT-60 NBI system only five operators can control all beam line units by the computer. Major characteristics of the computer system is as follows; 1. Keyboard-free operation and visual graphics for supporting easy operation. 2. Automatic ion source conditioning function. 3. Beam energy control during beam extraction. The computer system has successfully worked over one year, and supported reliable injection of over 20 MW neutral beam power and low density experiments with beam energy control injections. (author)
