  The EtherCAT real-time Ethernet technology is now widely used in the field of industrial automation. This paper is to evaluate and establish the EtherCAT (Ethernet for Control Automation Technology) solution for digital and analogue I/O and motion control in accelerator applications. Thanks to developments at the Diamond Light Source, EtherCAT is integrated into EPICS with support for most devices of a general data type. Preliminary tests and plans are summarized in this report.

  To eliminate long distance cabling for improving signal quality, the remote waveform access supports have been developed and applied on the TPS (Taiwan Photon Source) and TLS (Taiwan Light Source) control systems. Waveforms include pulse magnets power supplies waveforms, AC waveforms of main power supplies, LLRF waveforms, beam signals, etc., and these are necessary to be monitored during routine beam operation. One is that use the EPICS-embedded data acquisition systems which are formed by the Zynq System-on-Chip architecture to capture the waveform signals; the other is that a dedicated EPICS IOC is used to communicate with the present Ethernet-based oscilloscopes to acquire each waveform data. According to specific purposes use, the different graphical applications have been developed and integrated into the existing operation interfaces. These are convenient to observe waveform status and to analyze the acquired data on the control consoles. The efforts are described at this paper.
