Summary:The architecture of the ELSA control system is developed as a hierarchical, distributed microcomputer network. The ELSA FEL is divided into subsystems, each one having its own microcomputer to operate and control only the equipment within that system. Control functions are divided into two levels: supervisor and local. This article describes the hardware and software architectures of the ELSA control and data acquisition system.
