2. LabVIEW Core I with RADE introduction EN/ICE/MTA

3. ADE Rapid Application Development Environment based on LabVIEW

4. Why was RADE developed?

5. Users applications domains: LabVIEW, MatLab, scripts, etc. Beam Operation JAVA SCADA PVSS Test & Development RADE

6. Test & Development applications characteristics  Punctually used applications (i.e. expert diagnostics)  Rapidly evolving applications (i.e. machine development)  Stand-alone systems (i.e. test facilities)  Short development time applications (i.e. specific analysis)

7.  Fast programming  Rapid learning curve  Drag and drop GUI development  Wide range of analysis libraries  Light/independent environment Test & Development applications requirements LabVIEW programming language  Integration with CERN infrastructures our effort

8. Other reasons for choosing LabVIEW  We have a long experience (more then 10 years) EPICS and Tango have made a LabVIEW interface to their environments, mainly for the same reason (rapid application development)  Commonly used for control in other research labs:  Officially supported at CERN

9. What is RADE today?

10. 4. Development help  Trainings (cta)  RADE events (indico)  Documentation (edms)  Defined GUI  Application templates  Configuration files The building blocks 3. Support  Webpage (http://cern.ch/rade)http://cern.ch/rade  Mailing list (rade-users@cern.ch)  Direct user support 1. Installation  Clear LabVIEW version policy  NFS install for Linux  TS install (lvtsco)  Windows install (cmf)  RADE servers (rade1,2,3) 2. Control Integration  Maintained interface libraries - CMW- ALARMS - RBAC- SDDS - SQL- JAPC - PLC- TGM
