The Spallation Neutron Source at Oak Ridge National Laboratory has been operating since 2006. The integrated EPICS based control system has performed well but now requires a variety of upgrades to maintain high availability and support facility upgrade projects. These upgrades are largely possible due the flexibility of the EPICS architecture. This talk covers recent system improvements along...
Fermilab has historically not been an EPICS site. A new superconducting linear accelerator, PIP-II, is being built as a high intensity proton source to serve the accelerator complex and EPICS will be used as its framework for controls. I will present how we build, provide template IOCs, test, deploy for different platforms using Continuous Integration and Deployment practices. I will also...
Accelerator Controls at the ISIS Neutron and Muon Source is transitioning from our current Vsystem control system to EPICS. Operations must continue uninterrupted during our transition, requiring the two control systems to be run simultaneously. We present our work in bridging between the two control systems, automating the conversion of our existing control screens, creating our first novel...
