Open-source tools for a robust and versatile slow control system — •Jaron Grigat — Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg

Most experiments are equipped with a number of auxiliary sensors to keep track of the experiment's conditions and ensure a secure and stable operation. The slow control system monitors these parameters; the name refers to the relatively low rate at which the values have to be tracked. We present a slow control system developed as an open-source solution for small- to medium-size experiments. Based on the successful operation of the system in three different experiments in the field of direct Dark Matter search, we show how the modular design of the software allows an easy adaptation of the system to new experimental setups.
