Description
In 2004 GSI changed the vacuum control- and interlock system from a software to a
hardware based system. It's used to control and monitor around 55 pneumatic sector
and five fast closing valves. The new control system, which is completely integrated
in the GSI accelerator control system, uses total pressure values, determined by the
current of ion pumps, and wide-range ion gauges. In addition 60 ion gauges,
distributed in the SIS-synchrotron and the beam transport system, are used for the
vacuum diagnostic system. This system is web-based and independent of the GSI
accelerator control system.
The RGA-network, existing in the synchrotron will be integrated into the diagnostic
system, when our network problems are solved.
In the talk a short overview of the vacuum control and interlock system and the
diagnostic system will be given. In addition the RGA-network and it's problems will
be discussed.
