it is defined in a database.

18

OTHER INSTRUMENTS• Ionization Gas Monitor (BGI)

• generic application, used in SPS Bruno Puccio (AB/CO) responsible for the softwareAlick McPherson responsible for the configuration

– SIS• generic application, used in SPS

Jakub Wozniak (AB/CO) responsible for the softwareJorg Wenninger (AB/OP) responsible for the configuration

• Logging / Alarms/ Post mortem– Responsibility of AB/CO– Generic applications used for hardware commissioning and in SPS.– This tools now have to be configured for LHC operation. The responsible persons

for the configuration have to be defined.

• Radiation monitor– A simple fixed display will be done by OP. The acquisition through japc has been

tested.

22

CONCLUSION

• Some applications are generic, already used and tested in other accelerators or in HWC.

• For most of the applications needed for a sector test and at phase 1, a working version is already in place :– Basic functionality in place.– Needs to be completed and tested.

• RF low level and damper control application– FESA classes have to be completed, – parameters space definition has to be validated.

We need a first version for day 1. • For some instruments, the application development not started

– Some are not critical for day 1, some are expected to be developed quickly.

• Many DRY RUNS are planned, they are essential to– Debug the applications– Test the functionalities, find what is missing– Get the users feedback
