  The linear accelerator complex at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory has been upgraded to include LCLS-II, a new linac capable of producing beam power as high as several hundred kW with CW beam rates up to 1 MHz while maintaining existing capabilities from the copper machine. Because of these high-power beams, a new Machine Protection System with a latency of less than 100 us was designed and installed to prevent damage to the machine when a fault or beam loss is detected. The new LCLS-II MPS must work in parallel with the existing MPS from the respective sources all the way through the user hutches to provide a mechanism to reduce the beam rate or shut down operation in a beamline without impacting the neighboring beamline when a fault condition is detected. Because either beamline can use either accelerator as its source and each accelerator has different operating requirements, great care was taken in the overall system design to ensure the necessary operation can be achieved with a seamless experience for the accelerator operators. The overall system design of the LCLS-II MPS software including the ability to interact with the existing systems and the tools developed for the control room to provide the user operation experience will be described.

The Super Conducting (SC) Linac Coherent Light Source II (LCLS-II) facility at SLAC is capable of delivering an electron beam at a fast rate of up to 1MHz. The high-rate necessitates the processing algorithms and data exchanges with other high-rate systems to be implemented with FPGA technology. For LCLS-II, SLAC has deployed a common platform solution (hardware, firmware, software) which is used by timing, machine protection and diagnostics systems. The wire scanner diagnostic system uses this solution to acquire beam synchronous time-stamped readings, of wire scanner position and beam loss during the scan, for each individual bunch. This paper explores the software architecture and control system integration for LCLS-II wire scanners using the common platform solution.
