SuperKEKB is the upgrade of the KEKB asymmetric energy e⁺e⁻ collider, for the B-factory experiment in Japan, designed to achieve a 40-times higher luminosity than the world record by KEKB. The KEKB control system was based on EPICS at the equipment layer and scripting languages at the operation layer. The SuperKEKB control system continues to employ those features, while we implement additional technologies for the successful operation at such a high luminosity. In the accelerator control network system, we introduce 10GbE for the wider bandwidth data transfer, and redundant configurations for reliability. The network security is also enhanced. For the SuperKEKB construction, the wireless network is installed into the beamline tunnel. In the timing system, the new configuration for positron beams is required. We have developed the faster response beam abort system, interface modules to control thousands magnet power supplies, and the monitoring system for the final focusing superconducting magnets to assure stable operations. We introduce the EPICS embedded PLC, where EPICS runs on a CPU module. The design and status of the SuperKEKB accelerator control system will be presented.

The timing system of the KEKB accelerator will be upgraded for the SuperKEKB project. One of difficulties at SuperKEKB is the positron injection. It takes more than 40ms since positron pulse must be stored at newly constructed damping ring for at least 40ms. Timings of whole accelerators are precisely synchronized for such a long period. We must manage highly frequent injections even with this situation. Typically beam pulse is delivered to one of rings at every 20ms. Besides, the new system must have a capability of realtime selection of injection RF-bucket - we call it "Bucket Selection" at KEKB - for equalizing bunch current at main rings. Bucket Selection also will be upgraded to synchronize buckets of damping ring and those of main rings. This includes the expansion of maximum delay time up to 2ms and the pulse-by-pulse shift of RF phase at 2nd half of injection Linac. We plan to upgrade the Event Timing System from "2-layer type", which simply connect one generator and one receiver, to "cascade type" for satisfying the new injection requirements. We report the basic design of the new timing system and recent studies about key elements of Event Timing System instruments.
