  Beam energy ramping in Synchrotron Radiation Sources (SRS) requires synchronous increase in power supply currents attached to various magnets. This paper describes the implementation at various layers of control system architecture, experience of ramping beam energy from injection energy to 2 GeV. The total Ramping system hardware and software for both Magnet power supplies and RF cavity voltage are described with problems faced during the energy ramping. The implemented ramping system provides a tracking uncertainty less than 10μsec in time.

  This paper presents the Beam Diagnostics Control System for Indus-2 that monitors and controls the parameters related to Beam Profile Monitors (BPM), Beam Position Indicators (BPI), Direct Current Transformer (DCCT) and XZ-selection for strip-lines. The system has three-layered architecture. The middle and lower layer have VME stations with CPU cards having RTOS OS-9. The lowest layer has nine stations that house various Analog and Digital I/O boards connected to the actual devices in the field. The boards include 4-channel 16-bit ADC cards developed for BPI interfacing. The middle layer collects the data from lower layer and passes to top layer and passes the commands from top layer to the lower layer. The top layer has the GUI for operator control built using a SCADA software PVSS. It provides various features to the user for graphical display, trending, configuring, controlling, data-logging and selective data monitoring of the parameters. This system finds use right from the beam injection stage to the Orbit correction stage in addition to the normal operation stage of the machine.
