Tevatron BPM Upgrade
crate installed in the A3 service building on November 23, 2004. This crate
will be used to commission the new system hardware and software. |
The Tevatron BPM Upgrade Project will replace the current BPM
electronics and the data acquisiton system used to transfer information between
the BPMs and the Accelerator Controls Systems. As part of the project,
the software used to read out, transfer, store, and analyze the BPM data will
be upgraded. The goal of the project is to provide a BPM system based on
modern hardware and software that gives the higher resolution and expanded
functionality necessary to efficiently understand and operate the Tevatron
Collider now and for the forseeable future. Deliverables of the project
include all relevant documentation, manuals, users guides and any other written
records necessary for maintaining the system.
The project includes replacing the Tevatron BLM system interface
hardware and software that is tightly coupled to the BPM system.
