	The vacuum group is responsible for the operation and consolidation of vacuum systems across all CERN accelerators. Concerning over 15 000 pieces of control equipment, the maintenance management requires the usage of an Enterprise Asset Management system (EAM), where the life-cycle of every individual equipment is managed from reception through decommissioning. On vacuum SCADA, the operators monitor and interact with equipment that were declared in the vacuum database (vacDB). The creation of work orders and the follow up of the equipment is done through inforEAM, which has its own database. These two databases need to be coupled, so that equipment accessible on the SCADA are available in inforEAM for maintenance management. This paper describes the underlying architecture and technologies behind vacDM, a web application that ensures the consistency between vacDB and inforEAM, thus guaranteeing that the equipment displayed in the vacuum SCADA is available in inforEAM. In addition to this, vacDM performs the management of equipment labelling jobs by assigning equipment codes to new equipment, and by automatically creating their corresponding assets in inforEAM.

	Funding: This work was supported by the U.S. Department of Energy, Contract No. DE-AC02-06CH11357. This research used resources of ANL's ATLAS facility, which is a DOE Office of Science User Facility. The installation of a new Electron Beam Ion Source (EBIS) to the Argonne Tandem Linear Accelerating System (ATLAS) at Argonne National Laboratory requires a vacuum system capable of providing pressures in the region of 10^-10 Torr. Historically, vacuum interlocks have been provided via analog logic chassis which are difficult to upgrade and maintain. In order to provide sufficient interlocks to protect high voltage components of the EBIS, a new programmable logic controller (PLC) based Vacuum control system has been developed and integrated into the rest of the accelerator supervisory control system. The PLC interfaces not only with fast acting relay based interlock signals but also with RS-485 based serial devices to monitor and control lower priority parameters such as pump speeds, vacuum pressure readout and set points, run hours and more. This work presents the structure and interface logic necessary to communicate with a range of vacuum gauges, turbo-molecular pumps and ion pump controllers. In addition, the strategy to interface vacuum control with the rest of the accelerator control system is presented.

	A. Pettersson, D.P. Brodrick, T. Brys, M.A. Hartl ESS, Lund, Sweden
	The European Spallation Source ERIC (ESS) will consist of 22 different neutron instruments. Each instrument is able to use a large variety of devices to control the environment parameters of the sample during the experiments. Users must be able to control this equipment and the instruments as well as storing and retrieving experiment data. For this purpose, Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System (EPICS) will be used as the backbone control system. This work shows a typical use case where a Sample Environment System (SES) comprised by a Closed Cycle Refrigerator (CCR), spectrometer, temperature and pressure controller has been integrated into the ESS control system, from hardware to user interface.

	The ATLAS Forward Proton (AFP) detector is one of the forward detectors of the ATLAS experiment at CERN aiming at measuring momenta and angles of diffractively scattered protons. Silicon Tracking and Time-of-Flight detectors are located inside Roman Pot stations inserted into beam pipe aperture. The AFP detector is composed of two stations on each side of the ATLAS interaction point and is under commissioning. The detector is provided with high and low voltage distribution systems. Each station has vacuum and cooling systems, movement control and all the required electronics for signal processing. Monitoring of environmental parameters, like temperature, is also available. The Detector Control System (DCS) provides control and monitoring of the detector hardware and ensures the safe and reliable operation of the detector, assuring good data quality. Comparing with DCS systems of other detectors, the AFP DCS main challenge is to cope with the large variety of AFP equipment. This paper describes the AFP DCS system: a detector overview, the operational aspects, the hardware control of the AFP detectors, the high precision movement, cooling, and safety vacuum systems.

THPHA003	Installation and the Hardware Commissioning of the European XFEL Undulator Systems	ion, undulator, controls, quadrupole	1344
	M. Yakopov, S. Abeghyan, S. Karabekyan, J. Pflüger XFEL. EU, Schenefeld, Germany
	This article describes in detail the steps of hardware installation and commissioning of components for undulator systems at European XFEL. In general, the work can be divided into 3 different steps: installation, alignment, and commissioning. During installation step, the following main components were rolled into the tunnel: - undulators with the control cabinets, intersection control cabinets, phase shifters, quadrupole movers, correction coils. They have been mounted according to the designed positions. Then all mentioned components have been aligned according to the specifications. Finally, the cabling has been done and basic tests were performed. As part of the commissioning, the calibration of the temperature sensors, as well as the measurements of the quadrupole mover travel distance has been done in the tunnel. Afterwards, the undulator limit switches and hard stops were adjusted to secure the vacuum chamber by closing the undulator gap up to 10mm. Eventually, the system was handed over to the global control system in order to perform all functional tests. The main focus is given to the components which are controlled or monitored by the undulator local control system [1].

THPHA012	Upgrade of Vacuum Control System for Komac Linac and Beamlines	controls, ion, PLC, interface	1358
	J.H. Kim KAERI, Gyeongbuk, Republic of Korea Y.-S. Cho, D.I. Kim, H.-J. Kwon, S.G. Lee, Y.G. Song, S.P. Yun Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI), Gyeongbuk, Republic of Korea
	Funding: This work was supported by the Ministry of Science, ICT & Future Planning of the Korean Government At Korea Multi-purpose Accelerator Complex (KO-MAC), we have been operating a proton linac since 2013 [1]. It consists of a 100 MeV accelerator and 5 operational target rooms. Beam operation at KOMAC is carried out by a home-grown control system with a machine protection system which affects the accelerator the least when the machine suddenly fails. Our work is mainly concentrated on interlock sequence of vacuum related equipments based on a programmable logic controller (PCL). PCLs monitor vacuum status and control vacuum pumps and gate valves. By applying interlock sequence to PCLs connected to the vacuum equipments, we close gate valves to isolate a failed part so the the rest of the accelerator remains under vacuum, and safely shut down the vacuum pumps. Then the MPS receives a signal to safely stop the beam operation to protect the accelerator. We describe in this paper architecture of our PLC on interlock sequence of vacuum related equipment and its implementation. "vacuum", "Interlock"

	The vacuum control of the Large Hadron Collider and its injectors is based on PLC and SCADA off-the-shelf components. Since late '90s, CERN's vacuum group has developed a dedicated control framework to drive, monitor and log the more than 10 000 vacuum instruments. Also, in 1998, CERN's industrial controls group developed the UNICOS framework (UNified Industrial Control System), becoming a de facto standard of industrial control systems and gradually deployed in different domains at CERN (e.g. Cryogenics, HVAC…). After an initial prototype applying the UNICOS-CPC (Continuous Process Control) framework to the controls of some vacuum installations, both teams have been working on the development of vacuum-specific objects and their integration, together with new features, into the UNICOS framework. Such convergence will allow this generic framework to better fit the vacuum systems, while offering the advantages of using a widespread and well-supported framework. This paper reports on the experience acquired in the development and deployment of vacuum specific objects in running installations, as a prototype for the vacuum controls convergence with UNICOS.

	S.C. Alverson, P. Bellomo, K.J. Mattison SLAC, Menlo Park, California, USA
	Funding: SLAC National Accelerator Lab The Klystron Bake Station at SLAC is a facility for baking out klystrons (high power RF amplifiers) among other equipment in preparation for installation in the linac. The scope of this project was to upgrade the 30 year old controls (based on VMS and CAMAC) to utilize PLC automation and an EPICS user interface. The new system allows for flexible configuration of the bake out schedule which can be saved to files or edited real time both through an EPICS soft IOC as well as a local touch panel HMI. Other improvements include active long term archiving of all data, COTS hardware (replacing custom-built CAMAC cards), email notification of fault states, and graphical user interfaces (old system was command line only). The first station upgraded came online in November 2016 and two more stations are planned to follow this year. Year poster discusses the improvements made and problems encountered in performing the upgrade.

	Linac4 is 160 MeV H⁻ linear accelerator replacing Linac2 as the first injector to the CERN accelerator complex, that culminates with the Large Hadron Collider. This new linac will increase the beam brightness by a factor of two. The vacuum installation consists of 235 remotely controlled pumps, valves and gauges. These instruments are either controlled individually or driven by pumping stations and gas injection processes. Valves and pumps are interlocked according to gauge pressure levels and pump statuses. The vacuum control system communicates with the beam interlock system, the ion source electronics and the Radio Frequency control system, through cabled digital and analog signals. The vacuum control system is based on commercial Programmable Logical Controllers (Siemens PLCs) and a Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition application (Siemens SCADA: WINCC OA). This paper describes the control architecture and process, and reports on the control requirements and the implemented solutions.

	Q. Tura, C. Berthe, O. Danna, M. Faye, A. Savalle, J. Suadeau GANIL, Caen, France
	The phase 1 of the SPIRAL2 facility, extension project of the GANIL laboratory, is under construction and the commissioning had started. During the run phases, radioactive gas, mainly composed of hydrogen, will be extracted from the vacuum chambers. The radioactive gas storage system function is to prevent any uncontrolled release of activated gas by storing it in gas tank during the radioactive decay, while monitoring the hydrogen rate in the tanks under a threshold. This confinement of radioactive materials is a safety function. The filling and the discharge of the tanks are processed with monostable valves, making the storage a passive safety system. Two separate redundant control subsystems, based on electrical hardware technologies, allow the opening of the redundant safety valves, according to redundant pressure captors, redundant di-hydrogen rate analyzers and limit switches of the valves. The redundancy of the design of the control system meets the single failure criterion. The monitoring of the consistency of the two redundant safety subsystems, and the non-safety control functions of the storage process, are then managed by a Programmable Logic Controller.

The European Spallation Source ERIC (ESS) will consist of 22 different neutron instruments. Each instrument is able to use a large variety of devices to control the environment parameters of the sample during the experiments. Users must be able to control this equipment and the instruments as well as storing and retrieving experiment data. For this purpose, Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System (EPICS) will be used as the backbone control system. This work shows a typical use case where a Sample Environment System (SES) comprised by a Closed Cycle Refrigerator (CCR), spectrometer, temperature and pressure controller has been integrated into the ESS control system, from hardware to user interface.

The ATLAS Forward Proton (AFP) detector is one of the forward detectors of the ATLAS experiment at CERN aiming at measuring momenta and angles of diffractively scattered protons. Silicon Tracking and Time-of-Flight detectors are located inside Roman Pot stations inserted into beam pipe aperture. The AFP detector is composed of two stations on each side of the ATLAS interaction point and is under commissioning. The detector is provided with high and low voltage distribution systems. Each station has vacuum and cooling systems, movement control and all the required electronics for signal processing. Monitoring of environmental parameters, like temperature, is also available. The Detector Control System (DCS) provides control and monitoring of the detector hardware and ensures the safe and reliable operation of the detector, assuring good data quality. Comparing with DCS systems of other detectors, the AFP DCS main challenge is to cope with the large variety of AFP equipment. This paper describes the AFP DCS system: a detector overview, the operational aspects, the hardware control of the AFP detectors, the high precision movement, cooling, and safety vacuum systems.

This article describes in detail the steps of hardware installation and commissioning of components for undulator systems at European XFEL. In general, the work can be divided into 3 different steps: installation, alignment, and commissioning. During installation step, the following main components were rolled into the tunnel: - undulators with the control cabinets, intersection control cabinets, phase shifters, quadrupole movers, correction coils. They have been mounted according to the designed positions. Then all mentioned components have been aligned according to the specifications. Finally, the cabling has been done and basic tests were performed. As part of the commissioning, the calibration of the temperature sensors, as well as the measurements of the quadrupole mover travel distance has been done in the tunnel. Afterwards, the undulator limit switches and hard stops were adjusted to secure the vacuum chamber by closing the undulator gap up to 10mm. Eventually, the system was handed over to the global control system in order to perform all functional tests. The main focus is given to the components which are controlled or monitored by the undulator local control system [1].

At Korea Multi-purpose Accelerator Complex (KO-MAC), we have been operating a proton linac since 2013 [1]. It consists of a 100 MeV accelerator and 5 operational target rooms. Beam operation at KOMAC is carried out by a home-grown control system with a machine protection system which affects the accelerator the least when the machine suddenly fails. Our work is mainly concentrated on interlock sequence of vacuum related equipments based on a programmable logic controller (PCL). PCLs monitor vacuum status and control vacuum pumps and gate valves. By applying interlock sequence to PCLs connected to the vacuum equipments, we close gate valves to isolate a failed part so the the rest of the accelerator remains under vacuum, and safely shut down the vacuum pumps. Then the MPS receives a signal to safely stop the beam operation to protect the accelerator. We describe in this paper architecture of our PLC on interlock sequence of vacuum related equipment and its implementation.

The vacuum control of the Large Hadron Collider and its injectors is based on PLC and SCADA off-the-shelf components. Since late '90s, CERN's vacuum group has developed a dedicated control framework to drive, monitor and log the more than 10 000 vacuum instruments. Also, in 1998, CERN's industrial controls group developed the UNICOS framework (UNified Industrial Control System), becoming a de facto standard of industrial control systems and gradually deployed in different domains at CERN (e.g. Cryogenics, HVAC…). After an initial prototype applying the UNICOS-CPC (Continuous Process Control) framework to the controls of some vacuum installations, both teams have been working on the development of vacuum-specific objects and their integration, together with new features, into the UNICOS framework. Such convergence will allow this generic framework to better fit the vacuum systems, while offering the advantages of using a widespread and well-supported framework. This paper reports on the experience acquired in the development and deployment of vacuum specific objects in running installations, as a prototype for the vacuum controls convergence with UNICOS.

Funding: SLAC National Accelerator Lab
The Klystron Bake Station at SLAC is a facility for baking out klystrons (high power RF amplifiers) among other equipment in preparation for installation in the linac. The scope of this project was to upgrade the 30 year old controls (based on VMS and CAMAC) to utilize PLC automation and an EPICS user interface. The new system allows for flexible configuration of the bake out schedule which can be saved to files or edited real time both through an EPICS soft IOC as well as a local touch panel HMI. Other improvements include active long term archiving of all data, COTS hardware (replacing custom-built CAMAC cards), email notification of fault states, and graphical user interfaces (old system was command line only). The first station upgraded came online in November 2016 and two more stations are planned to follow this year. Year poster discusses the improvements made and problems encountered in performing the upgrade.

Linac4 is 160 MeV H⁻ linear accelerator replacing Linac2 as the first injector to the CERN accelerator complex, that culminates with the Large Hadron Collider. This new linac will increase the beam brightness by a factor of two. The vacuum installation consists of 235 remotely controlled pumps, valves and gauges. These instruments are either controlled individually or driven by pumping stations and gas injection processes. Valves and pumps are interlocked according to gauge pressure levels and pump statuses. The vacuum control system communicates with the beam interlock system, the ion source electronics and the Radio Frequency control system, through cabled digital and analog signals. The vacuum control system is based on commercial Programmable Logical Controllers (Siemens PLCs) and a Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition application (Siemens SCADA: WINCC OA). This paper describes the control architecture and process, and reports on the control requirements and the implemented solutions.

The phase 1 of the SPIRAL2 facility, extension project of the GANIL laboratory, is under construction and the commissioning had started. During the run phases, radioactive gas, mainly composed of hydrogen, will be extracted from the vacuum chambers. The radioactive gas storage system function is to prevent any uncontrolled release of activated gas by storing it in gas tank during the radioactive decay, while monitoring the hydrogen rate in the tanks under a threshold. This confinement of radioactive materials is a safety function. The filling and the discharge of the tanks are processed with monostable valves, making the storage a passive safety system. Two separate redundant control subsystems, based on electrical hardware technologies, allow the opening of the redundant safety valves, according to redundant pressure captors, redundant di-hydrogen rate analyzers and limit switches of the valves. The redundancy of the design of the control system meets the single failure criterion. The monitoring of the consistency of the two redundant safety subsystems, and the non-safety control functions of the storage process, are then managed by a Programmable Logic Controller.
