WEPOPRPO03	Recent Beamline Interlock System and STARS at the Photon Factory	ion, interface, controls, factory	25
	T. Kosuge, H. Ishii, Y. Nagatani, H. Nitani, Y. Saito KEK, Ibaraki, Japan
	More than 20 beamlines are installed at the Photon Factory for synchrotron radiation research. Each beamline is equipped with an interlock system to protect users from radiation hazards and avoid vacuum-related troubles. The system is controlled by a programmable logic controller (PLC). Currently, touch panels and their corresponding communication protocols comprise the user interface. They work satisfactorily but are expensive. We have developed a new type of beamline interlock system that has a PC user interface based on a simple transmission and retrieval system (STARS). We will de-scribe the details of this new system as well as STARS.

WEPOPRPO10	Personal Safety System in Sesame	ion, controls, radiation, storage-ring	28
	A.A. Abbadi, A. Hamad, I. Saleh SESAME, Allan, Jordan
	SESAME (Synchrotron-light for Experimental Science and Applications in the Middle East) is a third generation synchrotron light source under construction in Allan, Jordan. The personal safety system (PSS) aims to protect the personnel from radiation hazards coming from accelerator's operation by controlling the access to the radiation area and to interlock the operation of accelerator's sub-systems according to the area status. Phase 1 of SESAME PSS has been installed and commissioned successfully for Microtron and Booster tunnel. Rockwell L72s safety PLC (up to SIL 3 applications) has been used for Microtron, Booster and Storage Ring PSS. Phase 2 includes the Installation of the storage ring's PSS; two new PSS cabinets with remote safety IO modules have been installed for the storage ring PSS and connected to the main PSS PLC via Ethernet safety CIP. Phase 3 is the personal Safety System for SESAME day one beam-lines which is currently under construction. Many procedures and interlocks have been implemented in order to allow SESAME Booster, Storage Ring and Beam-lines personal safety to be managed in a systematic, risk based manner.

WEPOPRPO23	Beamline Supervisory System Using a Low-Cost Single-Board Computer	ion, status, storage-ring, software	50
	G.T. Semissatto, H.F. Canova, F.H. Cardoso, J. Souza LNLS, Campinas, Brazil
	Sirius is the new accelerator facility, under construction at the LNLS (Brazilian National Synchrotron Light La-boratory) site, in Campinas, São Paulo. The new machine is a 3 GeV, low emittance storage ring designed to ac-commodate up to 40 experimental stations. During beam-line operation, supervisory systems are an important tool to provide information about machine status and beam-line operation modes for the beamline's users. A modern TV based broadcast system was developed to meet this application, using low-cost single board computers with an interface to EPS/PPS system. The details about hard-ware, software configuration, user's requirements as well suggestions on further improvements, will be presented.

	The control system for J-PARC Main Ring (MR) was constructed in 2007-2008, followed by the first beam in May, 2008. 　In 2007, the VME-bus computers were selected as I/O controllers (Epics IOC).

The total number of controllers in 2016 has reached 170. 　Based on operation experience since 2008, following issues are discussed.
