The APS radio frequency test stand control system
Abstract
A 7 GeV Advanced Photon Source is being designed for use as a synchrotron radiation source in basic and applied research. An RF Test Stand that uses a 250 kW RF source is being constructed to test the 352-MHz cavities and other high power RF components. How EPICS (Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System) is being used for control, monitoring and data acquisition in the RF Test Stand control system is described. Applications are discussed to demonstrate the use of the EPICS software tools.
