48. INCA - The Point of View of the Main Users

Mr Sergio Pasinelli (BE/OP)

23/03/2011, 09:00

20'+10' InCA (Injector Control Architecture) is the new control system built for the LHC injectors which integrates LSA (LHC Software Applications) as well as new functionalities. After an intensive phase of validation and use on LEIR during the year 2009, recommendations and wishes have been formulated for an improvement of the deployment, the communication after release, the configuration...

49. ACCOR: What will change for Operation and Equipment Groups?

Anastasiya Radeva (Unknown)

23/03/2011, 09:30

20'+10' The presentation covers three major aspects related to the ACCOR renovation project. The impact of the new LHC schedule on the Injectors renovation planning is one issue that will be addressed. In addition, the renovation process strategy put in place by ACCOR will be laid out. This regards the active involvement of the three main parties CO, OP and the equipment groups, in which...

54. Industrial Controls in the Injectors - "You (will) know that they are here"

Herve Milcent (CERN)

23/03/2011, 10:00

15'+10' Industrial control components are widely used at CERN, either in complete industrial vertical solutions covering the three tiers, or as one of the tiers such as PLC for acquisition layer or PVSS SCADA as user interfaces. The objective of the presentation is twofold, first to describe the present ICE operational support for the already deployed industrial components both hardware...

53. Databases for Operations of the Injectors - Overview, Dependencies and Strategy for smooth Upgrades of Data-Driven Controls System

Zornitsa Zaharieva (CERN)

23/03/2011, 10:55

20'+10' The presentation will give a brief overview of the main data domains (data for the installed components, controls configuration data and operational data) and corresponding databases used for the Injector Chain controls and operation. The state and ongoing development in some of the data domains will be shown. The presentation will cover as well the interdependencies between the...

51. PS & PSB Cycle Management Reviews

Stephane Deghaye (CERN)

23/03/2011, 11:25

15'+5' In the PS complex, the current number of timing users available is limited to 24. This maximum cannot be increased easily due to hardware limitations. While solutions to replace the hardware exist, it would be very difficult to deploy it before the 1st long shutdown (LS1). In addition, it has been requested to provide double batch LHC beams from 2011 on, worsening the situation...

52. Samplers in a 3-Tier Control System: Plans and First Experience

Rende Steerenberg (CERN)

23/03/2011, 11:45

15'+5' Presently analogue signals of the accelerator components are acquired using two systems, OASIS and samplers. The second is widely used in the PS complex and with the introduction of the new MEN A20 platform the strategy for the deployment and renovation of samplers has been reviewed. This presentation will briefly outline the ACCOR strategy for analogue signal acquisition, in...

50. Application Development for Operations in the Coming Years

Mike Lamont (CERN)

23/03/2011, 12:05

15'+5' At Chamonix 2011 draft planning for the coming years included a long shutdown spanning 2013 and part of 2014. The entire accelerator complex will not be operational for most of this shutdown. Operations manpower will be redeployed during the shutdown to support the major LHC consolidation effort and other shutdown activities. Operations has traditionally performed application...
