MEDICIS high level control application

CERN MEDICIS is a research facility that will produce radioisotopes for medical research using the primary proton beam at ISOLDE and ISOLDE-like targets. It will start operating later in 2017. In this framework, the high-level application for the new MEDICIS beam line is responsible for the control of various equipment, such as power supplies, Faraday cups and scanners, as well as the monitoring of environmental parameters such as the vacuum level. It is characterized by a single user-friendly interface to facilitate the operators' tasks. In this paper, we provide arguments for the chosen solution and give the latest update on the status of the high-level application.
