THE ADVANCED LIGHT SOURCE ACCELERATOR CONTROL SYSTEM AT TEN YEARS FROM COMMISSIONING

The Advanced Light Source (1) was commissioned 10 years ago using the newly constructed control system (2). Further experience with the control system was reported in 1993 (3). In this publication, we report on recent experience with the operation and especially growth of the computer control system and expansion to accommodate the new superconducting bend magnets and fast orbit feedback for the ALS electron storage ring.
