Description
The ESRF EBS upgrade has meant a tremendous increase in X-ray photon flux in the experimental beamlines (BLs), requiring faster and more advanced DAQ techniques. Faster and larger 2D detectors are being developed and need to be integrated into the BL control system. The BLISS control software, designed to push the BL instrumentation to its limits, fulfills the opportunities offered by this upgrade. As a result, the control of 2D detector DAQ must meet the challenge of an increasing frame rate, data throughput, online data reduction (ODR) tasks, as well as the simultaneous access from Online Data Analysis (ODA) software. This work presents the latest optimizations in LIMA (a.k.a. LIMA1) in order to cover the 1-10 kHz frame rate range, efficiently deal with the increasing demand of ODR tasks and the coexistence with advanced ODA applications such as Ewoks. Furthermore, we cover the recent developments in the LIMA2 project components: the core library, the detector plug-ins and the processing pipelines. New core features include the state machine and an improved control of the processing pipeline Tango clients. In addition to the PSI Jungfrau detector, in production since 2023, while the Dectris Eiger2 and the ESRF Smarpix detectors are starting to be used on the BLs, new detectors like the Rigaku XSPA-1M and the Fraunhofer IIS LAD (Large Area Detector) for BM18 are being integrated. New processing pipelines for XPCS and tomography are under development as well. Finally, the LIMA2 integration into BLISS is also presented.
