Diagnostic Use Case Examples for ITER Plant Instrumentation and Control | 85 |
|
||
| ITER requires extensive diagnostics to meet the requirements for machine operation, protection, plasma control and physics studies. The realization of these systems is a major challenge not only because of the harsh environment and the nuclear requirements but also with respect to plant system Instrumentation and Control (I&C) of all the 45 diagnostics systems since the procurement arrangements of the ITER diagnostics with the domestic agencies require a large number of high performance fast controllers whose choice is based on guidelines and catalogues published by the ITER Organization (IO). The goal is to simplify acceptance testing and commissioning for both domestic agencies and the IO. For this purpose several diagnostic use case examples for plant system I&C documentation and implementation are provided by IO to the domestic agencies. Their implementations cover major parts of the diagnostic plant system I&C such as multi-channel high performance data and image acquisition, data processing as well as real-time and data archiving aspects. In this paper, the current status and achievements in implementation and documentation for the use case examples are presented. | ||

Approaching the Final Design of ITER Control System | 490 |
|
||
| The control system of ITER (CODAC) is subject to a final design review early 2014, with a second final design review covering high-level applications scheduled for 2015. The system architecture has been established and all plant systems required for first plasma have been identified. Interfaces are being detailed, which is a key activity to prepare for integration. A built to print design of the network infrastructure covering the full site is in place and installation is expected to start next year. The common software deployed in the local plant systems as well as the central system, called CODAC Core System and based on EPICS, has reached maturity providing most of the required functions. It is currently used by 55 organizations throughout the world involved in the development of plant systems and ITER controls. The first plant systems are expected to arrive on site in 2015 starting a five-year integration phase to prepare for first plasma operation. In this paper, we report on the progress made on ITER control system over the last two years and outline the plans and strategies allowing us to integrate hundreds of plant systems procured in-kind by the seven ITER members. | ||

ITER Contribution to Control System Studio (CSS) Development Effort | 540 |
|
||
| In 2010, Control System Studio (CSS) was chosen for CODAC - the central control system of ITER - as the development and runtime integrated environment for local control systems. It became quickly necessary to contribute to CSS development effort - after all, CODAC team wants to be sure that the tools that are being used by the seven ITER members all over the world continue to be available and to be improved. In order to integrate CSS main components in its framework, CODAC team needed first to adapt them to its standard platform based on Linux 64-bits and PostgreSQL database. Then, user feedback started to emerge as well as the need for an industrial symbol library to represent pump, valve or electrical breaker states on the operator interface and the requirement to automatically send an email when a new alarm is raised. It also soon became important for CODAC team to be able to publish its contributions quickly and to adapt its own infrastructure for that. This paper describes ITER increasing contribution to the CSS development effort and the future plans to address factory and site acceptance tests of the local control systems. | ||
