Abstract
Two Gyrotrons (42 GHz/500 kW/500 ms and 82.6 GHz/200 kW/1000 s) have been commissioned on dummy load for full parameters. The 42 GHz ECRH system has been integrated with SST-1 & Aditya tokamak and various experiments have been carried out related to ECRH assisted breakdown and start-up of tokamak at fundamental and second harmonic. These Gyrotrons are operated with VME based data acquisition and control (DAC) system. The DAC system is capable to acquire 64 digital and 32 analog signals. The system is used to monitor & acquire the data and also used for slow interlocks for the protection of Gyrotron. The data acquired from the system are stored online on VME system and after the shot stored in a file in binary format. The MDSPlus, a set of software tools has been used for data visualization & management for after shot analysis.
