Description

The EPICS 7 introduces many new features and bug fixes. The Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) controls is expected to benefit from adopting this new version of EPICS base. In this work, we report the experience of upgrading the EPICS version of VME and soft IOCs from 3.14.X to 7.0.4 at SNS. During this upgrade, the VME CPU boards and VxWorks version are upgraded to 5500 and 6.9, respectively.
