| Abstract |
A compact and mobile weather station has been designed and integrated with EPICS to assist with environmental monitoring at the Australian Synchrotron. This proved invaluable in correlating the dependence of the Storage Ring RF phase with humidity. The device is based on Arduino technology and consists entirely of substitutable parts allowing for easy repair and maintenance by people of any degree of technical skill. The project aim is to deploy several of these devices throughout the facility to enhance the understanding of environmental effects on beam properties and equipment.
