Abstract
The control system for the Stony Brook Superconducting Heavy-Ion LINAC is described. Familiar response characteristics and convenient operation have been given high priority in the design. A star network of 9 LSI-11 microcomputers forms the basis of the system which in addition comprises a PDP 11/34 minicomputer, one 6502 microprocessor-based RF controller for each of 43 resonators, and several I/O devices such as graphics display and reassignable control knobs.
