Abstract

This paper describes the control system for magnet power supplies and many beam lines in two experimental halls at the 12 GeV proton synchrotron at KEK. In the experimental halls, many beam lines have been constructed, cleared away or modified every year since 1974. With this experience, in order to reduce construction time, cost, maintenance and manpower, we are now using a distributed control system, with the following features: - each power supply is equipped with a microprocessor and communications interface, - each beam line has an independent control system, - each beam line controller is connected to a central controller, providing a unified system.
