CAP Owned Vehicle (COV) Orientation for Drivers
This presentation provides essential information for CAP drivers operating Corporate Owned Vehicles (COVs). It outlines vehicle use regulations, driver requirements, and EFS credit card usage instructions. All drivers must comply with CAP regulations and be familiar with the COV Binder contents. The privilege of driving a COV comes with responsibilities and adherence to safety protocols.

CERN-GSI Collaboration Steering Board Meeting Controls Topics J.Fitzek (GSI), C.Roderick (CERN), P.Sollander (CERN) CERN-GSI Collaboration Steering Board Meeting Nov.2022 Controls Topics
Areas of CERN-GSI Controls Collaboration Areas of Active Collaborations Settings Management (LSA) Controls Middleware (CMW, RBAC) Timing (WR Network / Switches) Front-End Software (FESA, SILECS) Industrial Controls Framework (UNICOS) Formal Verification for PLC applications (PLCVerif) Areas of Technical Exchange Controls Software Architecture UI Technologies, Application Services Sequencer Archiving / Logging System Interfaces for Python, C++, REST Software Engineering Tools & Practices Analogue Signal Acquisition Accelerator-Testing Framework Containerization Safety PLC Motion control framework Front-End Linux Platform 2 CERN-GSI Collaboration Steering Board Meeting Nov.2022 Controls Topics
Action Items 1/4: Deliverables / MoU ACTION 4: The FAIR project is progressing and specific deliverables are required in many areas. If the Controls collaboration is to continue, the deliverables and timetable/milestones need to be clearly defined (Chris Roderick for GSI deliverable to CERN and Ralph Baer for deliverables to GSI). No formal deliverables required for the Controls collaboration in general Instead a MoU is favored, draft started description how GSI and CERN intend to continue to generally share knowledge and software with one another, but without any formal commitment to support, maintain or evolve the software according to the others needs Specific requirements needed on the field of Industrial Controls leading to individual addenda to the Collaboration Agreement see second part of this presentation by P.Sollander 3 CERN-GSI Collaboration Steering Board Meeting Nov.2022 Controls Topics
Action Items 2/4: Python A collaboration on Python has not yet been initiated. It could be of interest to reuse the CERN solution for using Python, in the GSI controls infrastructure. Alternatively, a solution could be developed at GSI that could better match the GSI controls infrastructure. Goal at GSI is to support MDs with quick python access to the Control System (a priori not intended for productive operation usage) Prototyping started at GSI on different levels: evaluate, if the CERN solution could be used at GSI 4 CERN-GSI Collaboration Steering Board Meeting Nov.2022 Controls Topics
Python Prototype at GSI Settings Management pjlsa was set-up by A.Oeftiger with support from R.M ller at GSI, contact at CERN: M.Hostettler necessary modifications already backported to CERN: current version of pjlsa works for both labs ! full control loop successfully implemented by S.Appel Schottky measurement readout and analysis that performes an energy trim in SIS18 using pjlsa next step: simplify installation process for GSI Accessing Devices next step: evaluate CERN python libraries for data subscription Goal: have a working prototype for the next beamtime at GSI 5 CERN-GSI Collaboration Steering Board Meeting Nov.2022 Controls Topics
Action Items 3/4 Machine protection and interlock system could be a topic for future collaboration. Some clarification on possible topics inside GSI is required before. Interlock GSI has a working Interlock System, currently no collaboration is foreseen Machine Protection One person moved over to GSI Controls from J lich within the TransFAIR Process will is dedicated to the Machine Protection Topic Topic is picked up again, possible Collaboration aspects to be discussed in future, but expected to be covered in the MoU 6 CERN-GSI Collaboration Steering Board Meeting Nov.2022 Controls Topics
Action Items 4/4: White Rabbit For the timing systems using White Rabbit (WR), CERN is in the early phase of deployment. GSI uses WR as base for its Timing System. Will be covered by the MoU, main aspect is the technical exchange GSI participates in a common pool for a WR collaboration with 10 kCHF/year. Proposal by CERN at the White Rabbit Workshop in Oct/2022: Goal is to establish a general White Rabbit Collaboration with CERN, GSI and other partners that drives further WR development GSI intends to support this initiative Example: 2020-22 White Rabbit Switch firmware development (paid by GSI) 7 CERN-GSI Collaboration Steering Board Meeting Nov.2022 Controls Topics
Industrial Controls with WinCC OA and UNICOS GSI uses UNICOS and WinCC OA to develop industrial control systems since several years for Vacuum, Cryogenic Controls and Access Systems WinCC OA Commercial SCADA software from Siemens / ETM GSI buys the software directly from Siemens No CERN support for incidents, requests or licenses Dependency: follow the CERN WinCC OA version for UNICOS support UNICOS Framework A CERN-developed software framework on top of WinCC OA Freely distributed to GSI Soon to be Open-source licensed to ensure availability long term for GSI and others No official collaboration agreement in place 8 CERN-GSI Collaboration Steering Board Meeting Nov.2022 Controls Topics
UNICOS support UNICOS software available to GSI free of charge GSI has access to UNICOS support lines CERN offers best-effort support Fixes to known problems are distributed Incidents and Requests are accepted, but not necessarily treated with high priority CERN and GSI agree that the current best-effort support is acceptable to GSI CERN invites GSI to join the UNICOS Technical Committee Learn about CERN plans, issues, new developments and strategy Inform CERN about GSI needs, issues and plans 9 CERN-GSI Collaboration Steering Board Meeting Nov.2022 Controls Topics
UNICOS development CERN defines UNICOS Plan of Work yearly GSI may have special needs not prioritised by CERN Collaboration model to be defined Pilot project GSI hiring external help, helping to port UNICOS to new version of WinCC OA ahead of CERNs plans Possible solution for future development help The pilot will be evaluated and conclusions drawn for future collaboration 10 CERN-GSI Collaboration Steering Board Meeting Nov.2022 Controls Topics
UNICOS risk mitigation UNICOS software availability Open-licensing the UNICOS software will ensure availability long term to GSI Support Current best effort support seems sufficient for the time being Operational support needs to be evaluated for FAIR Development GSI benefits from any general UNICOS development Specific developments must be handled by GSI. Pilot project in place Software versioning Changing versions of WinCC OA and the underlying Operating System must be managed. CERN wants to minimise the number of versions supported Different Roadmaps CERN s software release calendar may not be ideal for GSI and FAIR, being in a development stage allowing and asking for more frequent updates than stable operation at CERN 11 CERN-GSI Collaboration Steering Board Meeting Nov.2022 Controls Topics
PLCVerif collaboration successfully completed 2010 agreement K1727/DG: Addendum 17 Verification of Personnel Access System safety PLC programs with PLCverif Guidelines to formalize the requirements Formal verification of these requirements against the PLC programs using PLCverif Analysis of the verification results to find the source of the problem Guidance and support to allow GSI to use PLCverif autonomously Deliverables and outcome of the 6-month collaboration in 2022: Beam Off Group and NE Area PLC programs were formally verified Many discrepancies between the specification and the PLC programs were found (e.g. 26 discrepancies for the BOG project) and the sources of the problems were identified. A detailed report was produced and given to GSI as main deliverable. Knowledge Transfer completed allowing GSI continued autonomous use of PLCverif. New features and improvements were added to PLCverif to fully support the GSI programs. 12 CERN-GSI Collaboration Steering Board Meeting Nov.2022 Controls Topics
