It relies on accelerating cells installed in three straight sections of each of the four accelerating rings of PSB. Each cell is powered by one solid-state RF amplifier. This modularity is also embedded in its controls architecture, which is based on PLCs, several FESA (Front-End Software Architecture) classes, and specialized graphical user interfaces for both operation and expert use. The control system was commissioned during the Long Shutdown 2 (LS2) and allows for the nominal operation of the machine. This paper describes the design and implementation of the control system, as well as the system performance and achieved results.
