DEVELOPMENT AND CURRENT STATUS OF THE CONTROL SYSTEM FOR 150 MeV FFAG ACCELERATOR COMPLEX

A control system for a 150 MeV FFAG accelerator com-plex in KURRI has been developed and served for actual commissioning of this accelerator complex with high relia-bility. This control system has been developed using simple and versatile tools such as PLCs, LabVIEW for MMI/DAQ systems, MySQL and Apache, and this can be a good ex-ample for small institutes without specialists on accelerator control. The design and development of our control system are reviewed from the perspective of developers without specialized experience on accelerator control. Also, the current status and applications of this control system are introduced
