Framework Components

The Controls Framework is composed of a set of Guidelines and Tools that will help developing the control systems of LHC Experiments.

It provides standard predefined components, that can be configured to control standard equipment, like power supplies or temperature sensors. It also provides tools for developers, for example sub-detector teams, to build and integrate their own equipment control.
