ZOOM Instrument Details - ISISComputingGroup/ibex_developers_manual GitHub Wiki

This page collects information that will be useful for the implementation of the new control system on ZOOM.

Background & Timeline

The ZOOM web page describes the background to the instrument. Additional material is also available on the ZOOM sharepoint. ZOOM is expected to have 36 motion axes.

The ZOOM shutter is due to open in February 2017 (see Zoom plan 28th May 2016).

Control System

ZOOM will use the IBEX control system.

Note: Fast Shutter

Location: Front End Due: Day 1 As used on: SANS2D

Note: ISIS Double Disk Chopper

ISIS Mk3 Chopper Location: Front End Due: Day 1 As used on: SANS2D

Note: Jaws

Location: Front End Vacuum Tank Due: Day 1 As used on: Many instruments Testing Summer 2015

Note: Polariser, Guide & Collimator

Location: Front End Vacuum Tank Due: Day 1 1 horizontal motion axis controlling four 4m evacuated tubes

Note: SpinFlipper

Location: Fixed Collimation Due: Day 1 4m evacuated tube & Spin-flipper unit Spin-flipper will be controlled by 2 Kepco Power Supplies

Note: Alignment Laser

Location: Blockhouse Due: Day 1 Single in/out axis No control of the alignment laser is required, other than the ability to move it in/out of the beam. It can treated like a monitor.

Note: JJ X-Ray 7-axis Sample Stack

Location: Blockhouse Due: Day 1 7-axis Sample Stack Manual See also LARMOR

Note: SampleStack

Location: Blockhouse Due: Day 1 The JJ X-Ray sample stack will sit on rails to allow the entire sample stack to be translated back & forth along the beam. The rails are not perfectly straight, so there needs to be an axis allowing motion perpendicular to the rails to correct for any slight misalignment in the rails. In other words, there are two axes for wholesale motion of the sample stack (in addition to the 7 internal axes of the sample stack itself).

Across beam (i.e. perpendicular to the rails): Alignment stage for reproducibility.
Along beam (i.e. along the rails): Monitoring only, no control required. See ZOOM_Sample_Stack_Schematic
The axis setup is described here

Note: Pneumatic Shutter

Location: Blockhouse Due: Day 1 As used on: SANS2D

Note: Tank Translation

Location: Blockhouse Due: Day 1 The tank will be moved by a motor connected to a Beckhoff controller. Monitoring only, no control required.

Note: Monitor

Location: Tank Due: Day 1 In/Out positioning - c.f. LARMOR, IMAT,others

Note: Detector Motion System (DMS)

Location: Tank Due: Day 1

7 axes consisting of:

Baffle
Detector translation
Strip Beam Stop
2x Disk Beam stop - x and y movement (total: 4 axes)

Note: DAE

Location: Screened Room Due: Day 1 As used on: Many instruments

Note: CAEN HT

Location: Screened Room As used on: LARMOR

Note: OMRON PLC

Location: TBC As used on: LARMOR, IMAT A full memory map is available There are up to three functions for the PLC(s) - exactly which are to be included in the computing control is TBC. Current expectation is that the PLC will control:

"Fast Shutter" (located at the front end of the beamline). SANS2D has a similar shutter.
"Pneumatic Shutter" (located in the blockhouse). SANS2D has a similar shutter.
Pfeiffer TPG 300 pressure gauges

Note: Galil

Location: Blockhouse x 1, Mezzanine x 4 Due: Day 1 As used on: Many instruments There are at present 39 axes to be controlled via Galil

Note: Beckhoff

Location: TBC As used on: IMAT The Beckhoff controller will control two axes:

the motion of the JJ X-ray sample stack along the rails see SampleStack
the motion of the tank (enclosing the detectors & detector motion system).

IBEX is NOT required to actually control these two axes (that will be done independently). IBEX is required to monitor the locations reported by the Beckhoff system - a read only driver will be required.

Note: Pfeiffer
