Detector Control System
The MPD DCS should provide control and coherent operation of NICA infrastructure and all MPD subsystems
SLIDE 8 Technical requirements for subsystems:
For IT:
- HV power supply system for
silicon detectors
- LV power supplies for powering
- f digital and analogue
electronics
- Cooling system to provide
silicon detector stable working temperature
- FE temperature monitoring
system
For TOF and TPC:
- HV power supply system
- LV power supply system
- Gas mixing system
- FE control
SLIDE 9 Aim of our project
Testing systems based on NI devices supported with dedicated LabView software that could be used in DCS:
- NI Elvis II+
- NI myDAQ
- NI myRIO
SLIDE 10
Why these devices ?
Provide powerful and portable measurement, control of DCS parameters and can be use as stand-alone part of this system (especially myRIO with real time control).
SLIDE 11
NI software support
There are several embaded instruments in LabView to make NI devices even more versatile e.g. Oscilloscope, Function Generator, Digital Multimeter/Reader/Writer, Impedance Analyser, Two and Three-Wire Current- Voltage Analyser and more...

SLIDE 14 NI myDAQ specification
- 2 differential or 1 stereo audio I/O 3.5 mm jack
- 8 Digital I/O
- General Purpose Counter/Timer
- Embaded Digital Multimeter ended with banana jacks
- 2 analog channels
- 15V, -15V and 5V power supplies

NI myRIO – Krystian Rosłon
SLIDE 16 Work
- Testing of this devices required creating
interfaces to control them properly
- We made general purpose programs to
control most options of these devices

SLIDE 21 Conclusions
- NI Devices can be irreplaceable in area of testing
and prototyping
- NI myRIO provides real time control – faster
detectors control with no computer needed
- Testing of these devices confirm that its
specification fulfill most of requirements set by SC system
