13 Autocreated VC Tango Devices All the devices of the Vacuum Control System has been automatically created using the information from our Cabling Database (CCDB): 424 Ion Pumps 230 Gauges 409 Thermocouples 48 Racks full of controllers 16 Industrial PCs 16 PLCs cables CCDB stores documentation and diagrams or devices, configuration, equipment, connector, racks, We automated not only device creation, also the setup of connections between them (serial lines, interlock DO, sensor/ps links) GC - ELI-TANGO Workshop Feb Art Hotel, Szeged 13

CCDB stores documentation and diagrams or devices, configuration, equipment, connector, racks, We automated not only device creation, also

14 From CCDB to TANGO DSs Device names are extracted from spreadsheets exported from the cabling database. A lookup table is created for all connections between devices. The cable types are used to convert cabling connections into control properties (assign serial lines to PC ports, link each Ion Pump to its power supply, ) Control scripts are used to automate Tango Device creation; and also check for changes periodically (new ID inserted, power supply replaced,...)

16 TANGO for PANIC PANIC, The Alba Alarm System Distributed in PyAlarm Device Servers, each managing a collection of alarm formulas. Each Alarm is unique in the system and can be managed by only 1 PyAlarm device. Each PyAlarm device performs locally both Logging and Notification ( /sms) Additional actions are passed to external devices (SnapArchiver, PopupDevice) Configuration is stored in the Tango Database. Alarm logging in the Tango Snapshoting database. The Panic API provides an homogeneous view of the system for devices and GUI. host1 DS DS DS PyAlarm PyAlarm Tango / Panic API Database BL24/VC/VGCT-01/P1>3e-5 GC - ELI-TANGO Workshop Feb Art Hotel, Szeged 16
