Fasti - The Global Controller.


Inside Fasti there is a central controller for start-up, general housekeeping, global control of operations data collection, formatting and buffering, and data pre-processing, when needed.

The basic ideas of the proposed design are:

  • The system is a Intel or Alpha based standard PC
  • It has plenty of built-in or easily available interfaces.
  • It is cheaper in money and in work compared to alternate solutions based on custom interface adapters.
  • It is seen by the instrument controller computer as a socket in a standard (or fast) Ethernet.
  • Can be easily upgraded as computing request increase.
  • It has no moving part (such as hard or floppy disk drivers)
  • It is programmable, so can accommodate very different tasks.
