  Beamlines at LNLS are moving to the concept of distributed control under EPICS. This has being done by reusing available code from the community and/or by programming hardware access in LabVIEW integrated to EPICS through Hyppie. Hyppie is a project to make a bridge between EPICS records and corresponding devices in a PXI chassis. Both EPICS/Linux and LabVIEW Real-Time run simultaneously in the same PXI controller, in a virtualization system with a common memory block shared as their communication interface. A number of new devices were introduced in the Hyppie suite and LNLS beamlines are experiencing a smooth transition to the new concept.
