In hierarchically structured control systems like the one at the PS accelerator complex, it is crucial to dispose of means for local interaction at several levels, for engineering purposes. A versatile and user-friendly device has been developed on the basis of Apple's Macintosh. The device may be used at four levels: autonomously, for checkout of single pieces of process equipment, through a mobile CAMAC crate; through one or more installed CAMAC crates of the control system, acting on entire subsystems of the process; as an intelligent terminal and file server, connecting directly to the microprocessor-based auxiliary crate controller in an installed crate of the controls system; as an intelligent terminal, connecting directly to the front-end process minicomputer.
