TUPPC036 | A Status Update on Hyppie – a Hyppervisored PXI for Physics Instrumentation under EPICS | 635 |
|
||
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. | ||

TUPPC037 | LabWeb - LNLS Beamlines Remote Operation System | 638 |

Funding: Project funded by CENPES/PETROBRAS under contract number: 0050.0067267.11.9 LabWeb is a software developed to allow remote operation of beamlines at LNLS, in a partnership with Petrobras Nanotechnology Network. Being the only light source in Latin America, LNLS receives many researchers and students interested in conducting experiments and analyses in these lines. The implementation of LabWeb allow researchers to use the laboratory structure without leaving their research centers, reducing time and travel costs in a continental country like Brazil. In 2010, the project was in its first phase in which tests were conducted using a beta version. Two years later, a new phase of the project began with the main goal of giving the operation scale for the remote access project to LNLS users. In this new version, a partnership was established to use the open source platform Science Studio developed and applied at the Canadian Light Source (CLS). Currently, the project includes remote operation of three beamlines at LNLS: SAXS1 (Small Angle X-Ray Scattering), XAFS1 (X-Ray Absorption and Fluorescence Spectroscopy) and XRD1 (X-Ray Diffraction). Now, the expectation is to provide this new way of realize experiments to all the other beamlines at LNLS. |
