	Phase 1 of TRIUMF Advanced Rare Isotope Laboratory (ARIEL) was completed in September 2014. At phase 1, the Low-Level RF (LLRF) system of ARIEL's electron linear accelerator (e-Linac) consists of a buncher and a deflector, one single-cavity injector cryomodule and the first cavity of two dual-cavity accelerating cryomodules. The model for the e-Linac LLRF system is largely based on the experience gained from the fully-commissioned TRIUMF ISAC-II linear accelerator (linac). Similarly, the EPICS-based Controls for the e-Linac LLRF builds on the lessons learned with the linac LLRF Controls. This paper describes the interface between the ARIEL Control System (ACS) and the e-Linac LLRF using EPICS ASYN/StreamDevice and a SCPI-like protocol. Also discussed are the ACS EDM displays and future plans for LLRF Controls.

The Advanced Rare Isotope & Electron Linac (ARIEL) facility at TRIUMF has now reached completion of the first phase of construction; the Electron Linac. A commissioning control system has been built and used to commission the electron e-gun and two stages of SRF acceleration. Numerous controls subsystems have been deployed including beamlines, vacuum systems, beamline diagnostics, machine protect system interfaces, LLRF, HPRF, and cryogenics. This paper describes some of the challenges and solutions that were encountered, and describes the scope of the project to date. An evaluation of some techniques that had been proposed and described at ICALEPCS 2013 are included.
