To ensure the excellent performance of the ATLAS Pixel detector during the next run periods of the LHC, with increasing demands, two upgrades of the pixel detector are foreseen. One takes place in the first long shutdown, which is currently on-going. During this period an additional layer, the Insertable B-Layer, will be installed. The second upgrade will replace the entire pixel detector and is planed for 2020, when the LHC will be upgraded to HL-LHC. As once installed no access is possible over years, a highly reliable control system is required. It has to supply the detector with all entities required for operation, protect it at all times, and provide detailed information to diagnose the detector’s behaviour. Design constraints are the sensitivity of the sensors and reduction of material inside the tracker volume. We report on the construction of the control system for the Insertable B Layer and present a concept for the control of the pixel detector at the HL-LHC. While the latter requires completely new strategies, the control system of the IBL includes single new components, which can be developed further for the long-term upgrade.
