Tango Controls has been adopted as main system for supervisory control and data acquisition at the Center for Advanced Laser Applications (CALA) in recent years. As an open-source, free and software independent toolkit it is highly customizable and applicable for almost any measurement device. In its current implementation at CALA the main laser system, as well as each experimental cave, has independently operating database servers that supervise the measurement instruments in a decentralized manner.
The developed Tango Controls architecture allows communication between experimental devices and laser instruments, while enabling the inclusion of security features. Such security features help prevent the destruction of experimental equipment and laser components. Furthermore, Tango Controls allows for a simple and streamlined integration process of new measurement instruments.
In this poster, the overall design of Tango-Controls as well as its specific implementation in CALA will be presented.
