  The project of a new facility for the Selective Production of Exotic Species (SPES) has started at LNL. Radioactive ions will be produced by impinging an UCx target by a 70MeV, 200μA proton beam delivered by a commercial cyclotron. Then, the unstable ions will be accelerated by injecting them into the LNL superconducting LINAC. The construction of Target and Ion source prototype is at an advanced stage and, after more than two years spent in its construction, preliminary extraction tests were carried out with non-radioactive beams. The control of Target instrumentation is based on EPICS; we describe here the basic choices on hardware and software tools on both IOC and client side and give a brief description of last developments.
