Prototype of the Detector Control System for the mSTS/mCBM experiment — •Marcel Bajdel for the CBM collaboration — Goethe University Frankfurt am Main

One of the major steps towards completion of the STS (Silicon Tracking System) construction in the CBM (Compressed Baryonic Matter) experiment at FAIR is the mCBM (mini-CBM) experiment which is considered as a FAIR Phase-0 activity. The mCBM experiment aims to test and optimize the performance of the detector subsystems including the software and hardware aspects. The Detector Control System (DCS) is a crucial part of the whole system which enables the supervision over a large range of devices and observables including high voltage, low voltage power supplies, cooling thermostats and environment sensors. Moreover, the DCS allows for error and alarm recognition and handling, as well as archives operational parameters of the detector. To realize this task many advanced solutions are being used including EPICS (Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System), Control System Studio and Docker. An overview on the prototype of the detector control system for mSTS detector, which will be scaled upfor the STS detector, will be presented.
