Description
ATLAS is a particle detector which will is being built at CERN in
Geneva. The muon detection system is made up among other things, of
600 chambers measuring 2 to 6 m2 and 30 cm thick. The chambers'
position must be known with an accuracy of +/- 30 m for translations
and +/-100 rad for rotations for a range of +/- 5mm and +/-5mrad.
In order to fulfill these requirements, we have designed different
optical sensors.
Due to (i) the very high accuracy required, (ii) the number of
sensors (over 1000) and (iii) the different type of sensors, we
developed one user interface which manages among other things
several control command software. Each of this software is
associated with an accurate calibration bench. In this conference,
we will present only the most complex one which combines command
control, an analysis module, real time processing and database
access. These softwares are now currently used for sensors
calibration.
