Over the past few years an integrated framework has been developed to better connect machine physicists to VELA/CLARA at the STFC’s Daresbury laboratory. This framework is comprised of a number of tools, including, a c++/Python API to interface to the EPICS control system with which all High Level Software can be developed. The API is encapsulated, extensible and designed to grow as further Phases of CLARA are installed. The API is seamlessly integrated with the VELA/CLARA virtual accelerator and other activities by the simulations group. As well as presenting the design choices and methodology we will give an overview of the first control room applications built using our tools and how they will form the basis for a new programme of machine learning and optimisation on CLARA.
