X-ray diffraction (XRD) beamline is under commissioning on Indus-2 synchrotron radiation facility. The experimental setup of XRD beamline consists of a six-circle diffractometer and various detector systems such as scintillation detector, ionization chamber and image plate. The diffractometer can be controlled via EIA232 serial interface or Ethernet. Standard data acquisition software with a graphical user interface has been developed using LabVIEW. A firm safety and error handling scheme is implemented for failsafe operation of the experimental station. This paper describes in detail the data acquisition and control software for the experimental station.
