Abstract

The on-line control software for BEPC beam transport lines are developed and incorporated in the BEPC control system. The polynomial fitting for the excitation curves of the transport line magnets are carried out, and the polynomials are loaded into the BEPC database. The programs TRANSPORT, MAGIC, COMFORT serving as the tool for the beam transport line computation are compared in the point of on-line control. The design and debugging of the software are accomplished and the operation results are analyzed. As a result, the development of the on-line software provides a powerful tool for BEPC commissioning and operation
