Description
Karabo is a device-based distributed control system used to implement the control and data acquisition systems of the 3 tunnels and 7 instruments of European XFEL.
Motion systems, both PLC and non-PLC-based, are controlled through single and multi-axis Karabo devices with standardised interfaces and behaviour.
Combined motion of multiple motors is provided through multi-axis devices, which are presented as a number of virtual axes. A device framework using Karabo's middlelayer API facilitates the creation of multi-axis devices with minimal code, ensuring the expected interface and behaviour, and includes motion coordinated at the PLC level, hardware and software limits, automatic operator panel generation and a unit testing framework.
