Development of EPICS package for small systems

  • 1. High Energy Accelerator Research Organization, Tsukuba, Ibaraki (Japan)

Description

EPICS is a control software toolkit, which was developed for large accelerators. The original EPICS assumes to use VME-bus computers and a commercial license of a real-time operating system (VxWorks). However, recent EPICS (version 3.14) can run on many operating system, such as Linux. Thus, EPICS can be introduced at a considerably lower cost than before. We are developing a customized EPICS package, miniEPICS, for small-scale accelerators and experiments. In this paper, we report on the development status of miniEPICS. (author)
