Abstract
The European XFEL development program includes the implementation of an afterburner based on superconducting undulator (SCU) technology for the SASE 2 hard X-ray permanent-magnet undulator (PMU) system. The design and production of the first SCU prototype, called PRE -SerieS prOtotype (S-PRESSO) will be manufactured by Bilfinger Noell GmbH, characterized, and installed at the European XFEL facility. The architecture and conceptual design of the S-PRESSO control system, which is currently underway, is based on the Beckhoff automation solution using the TwinCAT Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) development environment. The results are presented in this contribution.
