  The industrial control systems of CERN’s experiments are undergoing major renovation since 2017 and well into CERN’s second Long Shutdown (LS2) until the end of 2019. Each detector power-supply control system runs several hundred software instances consisting of many different components in parallel on a large scale, broadly distinguishable as servers and clients. Our accumulated experience during LHC runs proves that some complex control issues are impossible to detect using stand-alone components on a small scale only. Furthermore, new components must be developed well before the electron-ics becomes available, without impact on operations. Moreover, during LS2, the improved and now widely established Open Protocol Communication Unified Ar-chitecture (OPC-UA) replaces OPC-DA as middleware protocol. For these reasons, we developed a simulation environment to emulate the real, and valuable, CAEN power-supply electronics underneath the OPC-UA serv-ers. This distributed simulation is configurable to mimic and exceed the nominal conditions during production and provides a repeatable setup for validation. This paper discusses the functionality and use of this simulation service.

  TPS is 3-GeV synchrotron light source which have opened for public users since September 2016 and now offers 400 mA top-up mode operation. The requirements of the long term orbit stability and orbit reproducibility after beam trip have been gradually more and more stringent and become a challenge from users’ request. Furthermore, the thermal effect would be expected to be worsen after 500 mA top-up operation which should deteriorate the orbit drift. The report investigates the long-term orbit stability observed from eBPM and XBPM and also evaluates the possibility of the local XBPM feedback.
