A slow global orbit feedback using MATLAB has been tested to control the slow orbit movement for the PLS. The feedback program uses MATLAB tools such as matrix algebra, mathematical functions, and graphic display, and uses the SVD (singular value decomposition) method. The PLS uses 70 corrector magnets with the maximum angle of 2-mrad for each plane among which 11 use the 16-bit DAC power supplies for the insertion device orbit control and others the 12-bit corrector power supplies with the minimum step of 1-micro-rad, and thus the orbit feedback is not acceptable to beamline users. For the best performance of the feedback, the major hardware components have been upgraded: the replacement of 12-bit BPMs with 16-bit was completed, and the upgrade of corrector power supplies from DAC 12-bit to 18-bit or higher will be completed soon. In this paper, the orbit feedback test result using the current corrector power supplies is presented and the upgrade plan of orbit feedback is described.
