Abstract
The control system of the VEPP-4 facility was designed more than fifteen years ago and based on the home-developed CAMAC-embedded minicomputers Odrenok [1]. Five years ago, all computers were connected via Ethernet network. This step allowed us to force an integration of PCs into the VEPP-4 control system. This paper reviews new tools running on the PCs under Linux. The beam diagnostics tool described in this paper provides the data about position and dimensions of e-/e+ beams from CCD matrix controller via 100-Mbit Ethernet. The next tool provides measuring of beam energy at the VEPP-4M collider using a well-known method of resonance depolarization by the observation of the polarization degree on the effect of internal scattering of particles. Data visualization tools are based on CERN ROOT framework. Hardware and software aspects of the systems are presented in this paper.
