Along with the expansion of the RARF, RIBF control system has also been extended. Therefore, some stand-alone control systems, for example RF, ECRIS, and etc., are not integrated, though almost all control systems have integrated by EPICS for RIBF operation. These non-integrated systems are grouped into two major categories. One is a group of hard-wired control system, and another is a group based on a two-layer remote control system without middle layer. On the other hand, whole control systems should be integrated by middleware from the view point of efficient accelerator operation. For this reason, we have replaced hard-wired devices with EPICS-available devices, which are N-DIM (originally designed by Nishina Center), and Yokogawa FA-M3. Additionally, to access the data in the two-layer systems from EPICS, we have introduced a MySQL-based system as middle layer, and developed a feature to connect the database through CA protocol. As a result, it is available to obtain all of the data via EPICS and we have succeeded the system integration.
