Towards an EPICS based Detector Control System for the CBM Micro Vertex Detector — •Philipp Klaus for the CBM-MVD collaboration — Goethe-Universität, Frankfurt

The Compressed Baryonic Matter experiment at FAIR (CBM) is a dedicated fix-target experiment designed to explore the QCD phase diagram in the region of high net-baryon density. Operating the CBM Micro Vertex Detector requires a well integrated dedicated Detector Control System (DCS) to guarantee maximum detector performance. The main aspects that require control and monitoring comprise powering, vacuum conditions, the cooling system, the detector positioning, and diagnostic information from the readout/DAQ. The Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System (EPICS) was chosen to implement the DCS. A full-fledged control user interface will be provided in a Control System Studio (CSS) environment, complemented by a monitoring-only real-time web interface.

This constribution will present the status of the MVD DCS excercised with an actual prototype called PRESTO.

This work has been supported by BMBF (05P15RFFC1), GSI, HIC for FAIR and HGS-HIRe.
