Linac Coherent Light Source That was then … Accelerator Controls and Beam Instrumentation ACBI This is Now! Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory Stanford Linear Accelerator Center • web based, interactive browser • accepts graphics and text • searchable • backed up • cheaper!

Linac Coherent Light Source Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory Stanford Linear Accelerator Center Electronic Logbook Development The elog came to us from DESY Developed by the Controls Group for TTF Kay Rehlich and Raimund Kammering are the authors DESY/SLAC collaboration for LCLS lead to its introduction at SLAC for the SPPS commissioning 1 year ago New elogs quickly cloned for PEPII, ACCELerator, E 164 experiment, and now SPEAR 3 Accelerator Controls and Beam Instrumentation ACBI Patrick Krejcik, LCLS pkr@slac. stanford. edu

Linac Coherent Light Source Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory Stanford Linear Accelerator Center Implementation at SLAC The elog software is installed on a server on a Sun Solaris platform, lclselog. slac. stanford. edu Platform supported and maintained by SCS Sun Solaris platform is robust, and is on a UPS backed up daily uses commercial server software: Apache, Tomcat. . . For security, server resides behind SLAC firewall and only viewable within the SLAC domain remote users can only view it if they have a SLAC account operating, for example, with VPN anyone at SLAC can in principal write to the logbook (this has not proved to be a problem) archiving requirements: can be printed for hardcopy backup if desired logbook entries can be edited afterwards (intention is to make a notation that an earlier problem has been fixed, for example) Accelerator Controls and Beam Instrumentation ACBI Patrick Krejcik, LCLS pkr@slac. stanford. edu

Linac Coherent Light Source Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory Stanford Linear Accelerator Center Setting up print queues It is a unix print queue Example for Windows XP “add printer” Local printer (not plug and play) Create a new port select LPR (this driver not always installed with XP) Prompted for the following Name of server: lclselog. slac. stanford. edu Name of printer: spear 3 log Prompted for a printer driver Give it a standard color Post. Script e. g. HP C Laserjet 4500 -PS Use the existing driver Name you printer e. g. spear 3 log Share printer - No Accelerator Controls and Beam Instrumentation ACBI Patrick Krejcik, LCLS pkr@slac. stanford. edu

Linac Coherent Light Source Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory Stanford Linear Accelerator Center Future developments DESY shares a common interest in maintaining and enhancing the elogbook software We are trying to make a “mirror” site for a read-only version of the elog that can browsed outside of SLAC Caveat – this elog is not supported by the Controls Software group in SLAC’s Technical Division. They are working on another package that came from TJNAF. That leaves the software support with the accelerator physicists!
