Model of the control and management system for a linear electron accelerator based on EPICS

A linear electron accelerator was physically launched at the Skobeltsyn Institute of Nuclear Physics with the assistance of the MSU Laboratory of Electron Accelerators to solve problems of fundamental and applied research. This work is devoted to the initial stage of the development of an accelerator control and monitoring system based on the EPICS software package. The created model of the monitoring and control system consists of several controllers used in industrial accelerators, as well as third-party controllers. Within the framework of the model, information is collected and transmitted between controllers and a control computer, and control logic based on virtual finite state machines is implemented.An algorithm has been developed to include new controllers based on the Modbus data transmission protocol in the system for flexible modernization of the future control system.
