RF systems description… ACS ( superconducting cavities)

16 cavities powered by 16 300Kw klystrons (400MHz)

21 PLC controllers 33 VME chassis controlling the feedback

loops around klystrons and cavities 10 VME Beam control and common

systems ADT (transverse damper)

8 Horizontal and Vertical kickers powered by tube amplifiers

8 PLC controllers and 4 VME chassis controlling the feedback loops

Conclusions

CMW Wrapper:Very stable productEasy to use Good support Documentation Missing version number at VIs level Some Errors propagation missing from

FESA to WrapperIMPORTANT : this is a fundamental product

for RF

Example of error propagation
