  Nuclotron is a 6 GeV/n superconducting synchrotron operating at JINR, Dubna since 1993. It will be the core of the future accelerating complex NICA which is under development now. The report presents details of the Nuclotron injection hardware and software upgrade to operate under future NICA control system based on Tango. The designed system provides control and synchronization of electrostatic and magnetic inflector devices and diagnostics of the ion beam injected from 20MeV linear accelerator to Nuclotron. The hardware consists of few controllable power supplies, various National Instruments acquisition devices, custom-designed controller module. The software consists of few C++ Tango device servers and NI LabView client applications.
