Beamline Controls and Data Acquisition Group Home Page

Welcome to the Beamline Controls and Data Acquisition (BCDA) group Web pages. The purpose of this group is to develop software and electronic hardware for synchrotron radiation beamlines that serves the common needs of APS researchers, and to implement that software for the APS Beamlines. The BCDA Group is part of the APS Engineering Support Division (AES).

These pages will be evolving as we have time to add content and as we receive feedback. If you have any suggestions please email Pete Jemian
