Description

Presently at the MAX IV laboratory, Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) based synoptic are widely used for monitoring accelerator and beamline statuses due to their intuitive, interactive and easy controllable feature. However, synoptic views have historically been confined to desktop applications, rendering remote access less user-friendly. In addition, supporting and managing updates of synoptic views entails a challenging process to allow scientists to modify the synoptic themselves. Can we simplify access to synoptic and reduce the need for software developers to engage in the development process? Facilitating user autonomy in managing control systems holds high importance at MAX IV. The existing integrated user interface, Taranta, allows scientists to effectively monitor and control their experiment. This paper introduces the SVG based web synoptic solution on Taranta and the applications in the MAX IV laboratory. Synoptic on Taranta enables remote access to control systems and allows for basic component updates through simple configurations. Moreover, it offers users a convenient overview of all connected Tango devices. This solution promises a significant enhancement in user experience and a notable reduction in the development cycle.
