 Besides slow and simple I/O RW settings for device id, polarity and gas flow the requirement for the range setting needs careful consideration. The ranges have to be switched within a cycle pause (Fig. 1). The exact duration of that pause is so far not known, but is assumed to be between 50 and 100ms for a cycle rate of 4 Hz, SIS-18. The new I/O system should be able to do that in real-time to assure the right range setting for every virtual accelerator. The new range values may be changed at any time by the operator/user, the final set to the hardware has to be triggered with a SIS-18 machine event, foreseen is #55. Besides slow and simple I/O RW settings for device id, polarity and gas flow the requirement for the range setting needs careful consideration.

 In addition other users of I/O shall have their own I/O module ready to fit in the new crate. This can be the timing for the BPM preamplifiers (DPX).  In addition other users of I/O shall have their own I/O module ready to fit in the new crate.

 So far a stand-alone solution for the SIS-18 collimator system is available. This non-intelligent modular system is accessed via a Lantronix TCP/IP to RS485 interface. The modules in the crate are all addressed by this RS485 bus. The bus can be enhanced by daisy chain to max. 64 x 8 channels which would be more then required. So far a stand-alone solution for the SIS-18 collimator system is available.

 There is also a possible solution to use existing control system software with FESA by integration of the dedicated gateway, which already exists at GSI (Cosylab development). There is also a possible solution to use existing control system software with FESA by integration of the dedicated gateway, which already exists at GSI (Cosylab development).
