AB  - For some time now, we have also been using the EPICS control system in small laboratories in order to be able to guarantee data recording and processing in accordance with the FAIR guidelines and thus to increase the overall quality of the data. It was necessary to overcome many reservations and, above all, to counter the prejudice that such systems are only suitable for large-scale installations. We are now trying to communicate the idea behind this kind of data acquisition (distributed systems, open protocols, open file formats, etc.) also in the studies of physicists, chemists and engineers and are extending our activities to universities. We also hope that in the future, users who use the individual user facilities will be able to make optimal use of the options available there. In our talk we will present the use of EPICS in small laboratories.

AB  - After its first release in 2017, EPICS version 7 has been introduced into production at several sites. The central feature of EPICS 7, the support of structured data through the new pvAccess network protocol, has been proven to work in large production systems. EPICS 7 facilitates the implementation of new functionality, including developing AI/ML applications in controls, managing large data volumes, interfacing to middle-layer services, and more. Other features like support for the IPv6 protocol and enhancements to access control have been implemented. Future work includes integrating a refactored API into the core distribution, adding modern network security features, as well as developing new and enhancing existing services that take advantage of these new capabilities. The talk will give an overview of the status of deployments, new additions to the EPICS Core, and an overview of its planned future development.
