1. Controls & software
Andy Butterworth

2. RF-CS responsibilities
Controls HW and automation
PLC controls for RF power systems
Digital hardware/firmware development for LLRF systems
Software
PLC supervision/interface to control system: FESA/SILECS
Front-end FESA SW for LLRF equipment
User interfaces (Inspector etc.)

3. Manpower RF-CS Controls HW & Automation Controls software 2 engineers
2 technicians
Controls software
4 engineers (staff)
1 fellow (2017->)?
1 PJAS (->2017)
1 OP second job
1 future post LIU-ions

4. PSB
Finemet
Test stand for 180 power supplies and 150 amplifiers ready start 2017
Production of PLC systems
Software
Some software work left to do for LLRF (FESA3 back-port from LEIR)
C16 cavity blowup
White Rabbit B-train

5. LEIR Software synergy with PSB and ELENA
Phase 1: replace existing system functionality
Phase 2: 2 cavity control
Manpower issue: same SW developer for LEIR, PSB & ELENA
Committed to 1 July deadline

6. PS Software development for LLRF
PS controls consolidation competes for manpower with other controls/automation projects

7. SPS New amplifier controls not yet defined
Clear missing manpower (at least 1 FTE) for Siemens/Philips controls renovation

8. LINAC4 Controls installation complete
Software for LLRF still to finish
Currently SW developer on medium-term sick leave (temporarily replaced by manpower from LHC FESA migration)

9. Conclusions
Software team can manage to follow LLRF developments if we obtain all promised manpower (post, fellow, replacement PJAS)
LEIR software on track but tight for 1 July
Must manage potential conflict with ELENA
HW and automation team stretched due to many projects (Crabs, medical RFQ, multi-beam IOT…)
Clear manpower hole for SPS 200 MHz upgrade if renovation of existing amplifier controls (at least 1 FTE)
LINAC4 on track but short-term SW manpower issue
