Description

In this paper,a motor control system,formed by a S3C2440 computer, the Linux operating system and a MAXnet motor controller,is developed in EPICS at SSRF(Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility). A detailed analysis of the system design, and software development, are provided. It indicates that an ARM-based motor control system is feasible. Test results show that it has an equivalent performance in position control, with greatly reduced cost and volume, though the time response is not as good as the present motor control system. It provides a reference for designing new motor control systems of SSRF. (authors)
