Development of a VME and CAMAC based data acquisition and transfer system for JT-60 control

Abstract

Development of a VME and CAMAC based data acquisition and transfer system for JT-60 Control is reported. The present data acquisition and transfer system in JT-60 control is basically composed of CAMAC devices. Since the system equipped with 16-bit microcomputers was manufactured more than ten years ago, the performance and program development environment of the system are apparently worse than those of modern 32-bit microcomputers. To improve these disadvantages, a new data acquisition and transfer system using VME-based 32-bit microcomputers and CAMAC drivers is under design. Corresponding to this design, a CAMAC handler, which runs on the microcomputer, for the VME based CAMAC driver was newly developed. Moreover, the functions of the driver and data transfer performance of the VME and CAMAC complex system were tested. The test results shown that the VME based microcomputer and CAMAC serial driver can be applied for the fast and reliable acquisition and transfer system for JT-60 control. (author).
