9. Icepapcms: Concepts Connection to multiple controllers  Wysiwyg: Graphical representation of crates controllers and drivers.  For each controller Show motor drivers present  Status Match between local configuration and the one present in the database  Current configuration of each driver  Historical configurations.  Catalogs  Motors  Axis Beamline environment:2 different data formats  Database  Networkless computer. Test tool  Move motors with the given configuration

10. Icepapcms: Features  Add / remove an icepap to your list Host name and port number (and desc..)  Verify consistency: New driver present Driver not present Driver configuration has changed

11. Icepapcms: system/crate view System/Crate level  Name of the driver  Status  Current…  Limit switches For each driver:  Enable/disable  Double click to configure it.

12. Icepapcms: Driver config Read/write configuration parameters  Filters depending on the user modes  Automatic and manual Historical tracks. Load/Save previous configs  Motor catalogs Database or files.

13. Icepapcms Single-Axis Test Tool Set conversion factor Configure Speed and Acceleration Move to absolute/relative position  Abort/Stop Set position Show driver status

14. Databases Database Structure Icepap structure Driver configuration Historic configuration Motor templates

15. Databases and files Select where to save the data Catalogs  Save/restore motor templates in a catalog.  Make simpler the configuration of known motors.

16. Fixed stretched wire bench Continuous scan:  FSW Icepap + Linear encoder MUSST Keithley

17. Highlights and future Using already the step/direction interface  Fixed stretched wire uses an icepap controller with a Middex power driver getting 13000 half steps/second Implement signatures Catalogs Views and permissions
