  1. The PHELIX Control System PCS Stefan Götte PHELIX GSI Helmholtzzentrum für Schwerionenforschung GmbH CS-Workshop GSI February 28th, 2013

  2. Beamtime: only 10% downtime 68% of the time related to experiments (total 18: 8 @ Z6, 7 @ PLH, 3 @ xRay-Lab) rest: internal Shot statistics: 3556 shots in total 80 failures (2,2%) 2365 experiment shots 27 failures (1,1%) PHELIX in 2012

  3. OS: Windows XP LabVIEW 2009 CS-V3.21 running on 23 nodes (20 PCS, 1 developer, and 2 hardware test nodes) 25 executables (four types) 70 PHELIX classes about 350 instances about 10000 process variables the PCS is (still) one of the largest CS applications The PCS: Facts and Numbers
