Abstract
The performance evaluation and analysis of intersystem dependency of the various subsystems of the Superconducting Cyclotron (SCC) demand a well configured data logging, archiving and historic analysis facility for large number of control parameters along with on-line failure analysis facility of every system. Experimental Physics & Industrial Control System (EPICS) is used as development architecture of the control system of these systems with MySQL as database for large amount of relational data management. This combination requires integration between EPICS and MySQL server. For this purpose, MySQLArchiver as an EPICS Extension is developed for data logging and archiving of control parameters into MySQL database. This extension also provides a web based tool for online monitoring of control parameters and historic analysis of archived data. This paper describes the software architecture, implementation, as well as method of configuration for any other EPICS based control system as a utility. This facility is also elaborated with examples, web page views and experiences of deploying it in SCC. © 2012 by the respective authors.
