Data Server Application Software for Neutral Beam Injection Control System

The neutral beam injection (NBI) heating is one of the mainly auxiliary plasma heating methods for EAST. In this paper, a data server application software is presented for NBI control system. This application software is developed on Centos OS by C programming language with TCP and multithreading technology. It mainly focuses on storing and querying experimental pulse data and engineering data; experimental user’s operation records; experimental configuration information; the collected data after processing; as well as managing and releasing experimental discharge shot number and so on. By using the unified data header structure, the data server software provides universal information exchange interfaces for different service request terminals with different operating platform, such as WinCC, Labview. With the help of data server software, those problems related on the storage, querying and processing of information and data for NBI control system are well solved.
