  1. CID Retreat (2011)Controls & Instrumentation Elder Matias

  2. Core Values (Proposed 2011) • Safe working environment • Scientific Integrity and Excellence • Respect and Tolerance for all • Equity and Balance in the Workplace • User and Client Friendliness • Teamwork • Accountability (Public & Professional)

  3. CLS Vision (Approved by he Board) • To be a global leader and a recognized centre of excellence in synchrotron science and its applications. CID Vision (2004) • Design, build and maintain control, data acquisition and instrumentation systems that help position CLS as a world leading synchrotron. Achieve our goal by both collaboration and providing leadership both within CLS and externally in the synchrotron and accelerator instrumentation/controls community.

  4. CLS Mission To develop and operate the Canadian Light Source facility to enable the user community to conduct world-leading synchrotron-based research and development. • Synchrotron Expertise: We work with the Canadian and international scientific communities to enhance expertise in synchrotron science and promote the utilization of synchrotron light. • CLS Research and Development: We conduct competitive research and development to keep the Canadian Light Source at the forefront of synchrotron science. • Industrial Competitiveness: We promote industrial involvement and partnerships that support commercialization opportunities and economic development. • Innovation: We provide a collaborative multidisciplinary environment that fosters innovation. • Outreach: We participate actively in educational, social and cultural development of our communities. • International Cooperation: We collaborate internationally and foster the exchange of people and ideas.

  5. CID Alignment with the CLS Mission and Department Priorities (Last update 04/03/2010) • Ensure work is done in a safe way and we meet our professional and regulatory obligations. • Ensure when we have scheduled beam, the machine works within performance parameters. • Ensure that scheduled users making use of commissioned techniques, i.e., can do their experiments. • Ensure that scheduled users making use of special beam (single bunch, time resolve, CSR etc.) i.e., can do their experiments. • Ensure we protect the CLS/UofS assets by doing critical preventative maintenance, acceptance testing, etc. • Ensure that scheduled machine studies can occur. • Major Facility Projects (Phase II, III, etc.). • Contribute to Meeting the CLS mission/vision statement: • Synchrotron Expertise - Participate in internal, external and international projects that build our expertise in Controls & Instrumentation. Publish and share the results of our work within the community. • Undertake CID Internal Projects that maintain the CLS as a competitive state-of-the-art facility. • Partner with Canadian Industry - Support interdisciplinary collaboration within CLS and our government collaborators including: CANARIE, PRECARN, Mitacs, NRC etc. • Outreach - Collaborate with Canadian Universities creating opportunities for Canadian students • International Co-operation - Partner in inter-laboratory collaboration in the Controls and Instrumentation Area to our mutual benefit

  6. UAC Update (2011)Controls & Instrumentation Elder Matias

  7. Improving the Beam • Storage ring dipolestability improved(30ppm -> 15 ppm) • Power supply upgrades oninjection chain - nearly complete • Upgraded orbit correction software in place and ready for commissioning • Absolute power meter 1 % Accuracy and 50 nW Resolution (comp. with PTB)

  8. Front End Electronics • Contract in place for thefirst µTCA system • Continuous scanning nowon VESPERS and SGM • Evaluation underway on RTEMS and motion control platform migration • Evaluation of pre-amps (2011/12)

  9. User Oriented Software • Continue to achieve highuser satisfaction rates • We are moving forward on HXMA improvements • Human factors review are ongoing • Many of the concepts embedded in aquaman are based on the last years user meeting

  10. Compute Canada • Silo disk storage available • Work in ongoing • In collaboration with SharNetthe FOXMAS analysissoftware have been developed and made available within ScienceStudio

  11. AquamanThe Story • Superhero Mission: Transforming beamline software away from "Controlling Machines" to "Supporting Experiments“ • Spawned By: A creative design session of synchrotron users, beamline staff, and software developers in Summer 2010 • Seeks to Protect: The whole experimental process:  From planning and organizing old data, to running experiments on beamlines, to visualization, analysis, and making connections • Sidekick: "Dataman", a take-home version that lets scientists compare, process, visualize, and export their data, using the same interface they see on the beamline • Super Powers: Adapts to new beamlines and techniques in the blink of an eye.   Can run on almost any platform (Linux, Mac, Windows).    • Secret Abilities: Agile development; fast and frequent user feedback; modular design; integrated documentation. • Arch-Nemeses:  8AM mornings. TestBoy (his test suite).  Being confused with Aquaman, the lamest comic book character ever. Developed by: • Mark Boots, David Chevrier, Darren Hunter
