Beam injections to KEKB and Photon Factory are performed with pulse-to-pulse modulation at 50Hz. Three very different beams are switched every 20ms in order to inject those beams into KEKB HER, LER and Photon Factory (PF) simultaneously. Human operators work on one of those three virtual accelerators, which correspond to three-fold accelerator parameters. Beam charges for PF injection and the primary electron for positron generation are 50-times different, and beam energies for PF and HER injection are 3-times different. Thus, the beam stabilities are sensitive to operational parameters, and if any instability in accelerator equipment occurred, beam parameter adjustments for those virtual accelerators have to be performed. In order to cure such a situation, beam energy and orbit feedback systems are installed that can respond to each of virtual accelerators independently.

Most of the magnet power supplies of the KEKB rings and beam transport lines are connected to the local control computers through ARCNET. For this purpose we have developed the Power Supply Interface Controller Module (PSICM), which is designed to be plugged into the power supply. It has a 16-bit microprocessor, ARCNET interface, trigger pulse input interface, and parallel interface to the power supply. According to the upgrade plan of the KEKB accelerators, more power supplies are expected to be installed. Although the PSICMs have worked without serious problem for 11 years, it seems too hard to keep maintenance for the next decade because some of the parts have been discontinued. Thus we decided to develop the next generation of the PSICM. Its major change is the use of the Ethernet instead of the ARCNET. On the other hand the specifications of the interface to the power supply are not changed at all. The new PSICM is named ePSICM (Ethernet-based Power Supply Interface Controller Module). The design of the ePSICM and the development of the prototype modules are in progress.

Gazing at SuperKEKB project, a new control subsystem was designed and implemented to upgrade the low level RF system of the KEKB accelerator based on Experimental and Industrial Control System (EPICS). The new control subsystem comprises a uTCA, a PLC, and an industrial PC. Each card plugged in the uTCA chassis and the PLC function as an embedded Input / Output Controller (IOC) by running the EPICS core program on the Linux operating system. The industrial PC runs Extensible Display Manger on Linux to serve as an Operator Interface (OPI). This paper describes the details of the design and the implementation of the fully embedded EPICS-based low level RF control subsystem for SuperKEKB.

KEK manages two synchrotron radiation sources, Photon Factory storage ring (PF-ring) of 2.5 GeV and Photon Factory advanced ring (PF-AR) of 6.5 GeV. These rings share an injector linac with the two main rings of KEK B-factory, 8-GeV HER and 3.5-GeV LER. Recently, the linac has succeeded in a pulse by pulse multi-energy acceleration. A top-up operation of PF-ring has been realized as the simultaneous continuous injection to the 3 rings, PF-ring, HER and LER. Development of new injection scheme using a pulsed sextupole magnet continues aiming at practical use in the top-up operation. A rapid-polarization-switching device consisting of tandem two APPLE-II type undulators has been developed at PF-ring. The first undulator was installed in 2008, and the second one will be installed in 2010 summer. PF-AR, operated in a single-bunch mode at all times, has been suffered from sudden lifetime drop phenomena attributed to dust trapping for many years. Using the movable electrodes installed for experiment, we confirmed that the discharge created by the electrode was followed by the dust trapping, and succeeded in a visual observation of luminous dust streaking in front of CCD cameras.

At PF-AR, a bending magnet power supply was updated in 2007. The converter works in the 3 pulsed PWM. A trouble caused by higher harmonics above 40th had occurred. We manufactured filters and installed in 6.6kV ac lines in 2008. Furthermore, a QF magnet power supply was updated in 2009. This paper reports on the update of PF-AR main magnet power supplies.
