  Ap­proach­ing the com­mis­sion­ing of CRYRING, the first ac­cel­er­a­tor to be op­er­ated using the new con­trol sys­tem for FAIR (Fa­cil­ity for An­tipro­ton and Ion Re­search), the new set­tings man­age­ment sys­tem will also be de­ployed in a pro­duc­tion en­vi­ron­ment for the first time. A major de­vel­op­ment ef­fort is on­go­ing to re­al­ize re­quire­ments nec­es­sary to sup­port ac­cel­er­a­tor op­er­a­tions at FAIR. The focus is on the pat­tern con­cept which al­lows con­trol­ling the whole fa­cil­ity with its dif­fer­ent par­al­lel beams in an in­te­gra­tive way. Being able to uti­lize cen­tral parts of the new con­trol sys­tem al­ready at CRYRING, be­fore the first FAIR ac­cel­er­a­tors are com­mis­sioned, fa­cil­i­tates an early proof of con­cept and test­ing pos­si­bil­i­ties. Con­cur­rently, refac­tor­ings and en­hance­ments of the com­monly used LSA (LHC Soft­ware Ar­chi­tec­ture) frame­work take place. At CERN, the in­ter­face to de­vices has been re­designed to en­hance main­tain­abil­ity and di­ag­nos­tics ca­pa­bil­i­ties. At GSI, sup­port for poly­no­mi­als as a na­tive datatype has been im­ple­mented, which will be used to rep­re­sent ac­cel­er­a­tor set­tings as well as cal­i­bra­tion curves. Be­sides func­tional im­prove­ments, qual­ity as­sur­ance mea­sures are being taken to in­crease code qual­ity in prospect of pro­duc­tive use.
