11 2006/07/20 MJJ Collimator Control Milestones Basic command-driven controlAugust 2006: Basic command-driven control of single collimators for SPS test, TT40 test and commissioning of transfer line collimators. function-driven, synchronized controlMarch 2007: First tests on function-driven, synchronized control of a collimator ensemble (several 10's of collimators), like required for the LHC. collimator beam-based calibrationAugust 2007: Controls for collimator beam-based calibration. Function- driven, synchronized control for the LHC collimation system for commissioning (no automatic BLM-based setup). March 2008: First tests on automatic BLM-based collimator set-up. Availability of fast automatic BLM-based collimator set-upJuly 2008: Availability of fast automatic BLM-based collimator set-up to allow for efficient machine set-up for luminosity of up to 10 33 (up to 30% of nominal beam intensity).

12 2006/07/20 MJJ Low level control Study by A.Masi (+ A.Brielmann, M.Donze) Requirements driving the choice for the low level system: Reliability (collimators protect the machine) Limited rack space (19” x 12U x 400 mm deep rack should house controls for two collimators The jaws positioning a few μ resolution, 20 μ reproducibility Two modes of operation: –Move a jaw by a predefined number of steps, with start synchronized by a (repeatable) digital trigger from CSS (Beam based alignment). –Download in the low level equipment a function (position-time table). Then all jaws will start after receiving the digital trigger (about 400 motors) Possibility to download a new function while the previous is running

13 2006/07/20 MJJ Low level control Requirements driving the choice for the low level system (cont) Response delay to a digital trigger < 1ms Motors of the same jaw synchronized << 1 ms to reduce vibrations Synchronization between collimators after 15 minutes of a function 10 μ error Possibility to download a new function while the previous is running Acquire LVDT and resolvers within a 20ms cycle, 10 ms if possible, check in real time that the actual position is within a given limit function (synchronized with function execution).

14 2006/07/20 MJJ Low level control Requirements driving the choice for the low level system (cont) Trigger delay Start jitter Profile duration Stop jitter BLM based setupRamp Trigger delay: <1ms<100ms Start jitter: <1ms<10ms (<1ms on the same jaw!) Stop jitter: <10ms (after 15 minutes) Note: 10 ms error @ 1mm/s => 10 μ error Acquire LVDT and resolvers within a 20ms cycle, 10 ms if possible, check in real time that the actual position is within a given limit function (synchronized with function execution).

17 2006/07/20 MJJ low level control Conclusion low level The last collimation project steering meeting, where A.Masi presented the results from the study, adopted the recommendation to proceed with the PXI solution, based on the following criteria: Space, performance and delay for purchasing & implementation Feedback and advice welcome before final decision. Other recommendations: Use this option in the SPS beam test to gain further experience. investigate the user experience of this technology in other industrial domains. On the long term, in case DIM solution is inadequate, replace DIM with IEPLC or by corba/RDA/CMW

18 2006/07/20 MJJ Motors Synch HistorySupervisor ctrp FESA collimator supervisory system Responsible: M.Sobczak PLC Environmental data Environment IEPLC FESA Low Level System, motor control, position acquisition Fiber links cmw Position cmw NetRelay Debug application CCC applications: Trim Display Logging implemented projected BLM UDP BLM Private Logging

19 2006/07/20 MJJ collimator supervisory system Current Status: Implementation of Collimator Supervisory System, controlling: Motor position (No function, no critical settings, no position survey) Motor Synchronisation History recording FESA Server for Control room applications Properties definitions to be finalized Position readout to be implemented BLM transient reading and recording to be implemented Environmental Parameter readout (integrate or resurrect old FESA classes) Replacement of FESA interface to low level (after beam test)

20 2006/07/20 MJJ Control room application Baseline solution (S.Redaelli) Graphical interface that talks directly to the FESA class of the CSS Single collimator control unit, graphical design (S.Redaelli)

21 2006/07/20 MJJ CSS collimator Control room application Preferred solution (S.Redaelli + help of LSA team members): Graphical interface based on LSA core facilities (discrete Settings trim) Avoid creation of “exotically” structured control parameters (use a test server for discrete setting parameters as an example/template) Base this on the class structure and collimator data entered in the LSA database (as define by S.Redaelli).

22 2006/07/20 MJJ BLM requirements Logging/recording of SPS BLMs with frequency > 1 Hz –Precise time stamping Logging/recording of LHC BLM’s with same frequency Recording of motor movement induced transients: n samples over period of 20 – 500 ms. (B.Dehning et. Al.) –LHC BLM electronics (prototype) with a history buffer of 32 samples over a selectable time period (20ms, 80 ms, 320 ms…) (C.Zamantzas) –Sending history in UDP data packet upon timing interrupt (S.Jackson) –Timing interrupt by common timing event or by external trigger from CSS. To be provided by CO: –Library to set up UDP communication with CSS (M.Jonker)

23 2006/07/20 MJJ For Follow up TT40: Collimator under construction (waiting for parts of Cerca, 3 hours access to install) Use midi electronics and control system of 2004 Cables for microphone and Laser accelerometer (S.Redaelli +?) (Re)install local PC for remote access Resurrect environmental control PLC + Fesa Classes (R.Losito, M Sobczak) Microphone readout by NAOS, triggered by extraction event (NEW) Mr? In parallel to standard readout by sound card Logging of all measurement data

24 2006/07/20 MJJ For Follow up LSS5: Collimator already in place, need to be equipped with new LVDTs, new motors (if possible, under study by O.Aberle) Add cabling of new LVDT’s (R.Losito) Use similar power driver as the one that will be selected by tender Motor control and Acquisition based on IPX system (R.Losito, A.Masi) Environmental survey, use PLC system of 2004 (R.Losito) FESA classes for environmental survey data to be resurrected, possibly integrated into CSS (M.Sobczak)

25 2006/07/20 MJJ For Follow up CSS: (M.Sobczak) Define Fesa Interface with High Level (S.Redaelli) Add position readout and recording Add BLM transient recording client Install FESA Gateway PC with CTRP + timing in LSS5 (M Vanden Eynden) Install synchronisation signals with Low Level Add/install synchronisation mechanism with BLM recording CCC applications: beyond the baseline solution (S.Redaelli) Interactive application based on LSA discrete setting trim application –Fesa test server for discrete (japc) setting parameters (template for Css Fesa Properties) (M.Lamont) –Help required for S.Redaelli to create interactive application based on LSA core (M.Lamont) Standard logging for all Collimator parameters Sequencing for repeated collimator movements?

26 2006/07/20 MJJ For Follow up BLM: Recording with > 1 Hz of SPS beam loss Recording of BLM transient data UDP communication library Logging: Recording off all Collimator related data Dry run: Test of all required software before the SPS MD’s COCOST: (COllimator COntrol Specification Team) will start regular meetings. First priority SPS beam test

27 2006/07/20 MJJ Conclusion Still work to do for the SPS beam test Most urgent decision to be taken: Endorsement of the PXI solution for the SPS beam test With the low level defined we can now proceed more clearly towards our goal.
