MC09: Experiment Control and Data Acquisition
Contributed Oral Presentation

areaDetector is an EPICS framework for 2-D and other types of detectors that is widely used in synchrotron and neutron facilities. An overview of areaDetector and enhancements since the last ICALEPCS presentation in 2017 will be presented. These include:
- HDF5 file writing plugin:
o Support for Blosc, lz4, bitshuffle/lz4, and JPEG compression.
o Support for Direct Chunk Write which...

MC09: Experiment Control and Data Acquisition
Contributed Oral Presentation

At MAX IV, we have developed a high-performance data acquisition (DAQ) system to handle the high rate detectors exploiting the brightness of the fourth-generation source. This system integrates multiple detector types, including photon counting and charge integrating detectors as well as sCMOS cameras, into a unified DAQ framework. Data are streamed to a central Kubernetes cluster which mounts...

MC09: Experiment Control and Data Acquisition
Contributed Oral Presentation

With the High Energy Upgrade project in the installation phase at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS), soon the repetition rate of the X-ray beam will exceed the capability of the present motion control system to reliably deliver samples. We describe the design of a motion control system which aims to deliver solid crystal samples within 5 um of the...
