Abstract :
This paper briefly outlines the current status of CODAC system of the EAST tokamak. Integrated central system has been working for synchronizing all the subsystems and responsible for the integral safety protection by interlock. Data acquisition system has been established for the discharge with duration up to 100 seconds. Various data visualization tools such as EASTVIEWER to view the flux surfaces, RTSCOPE to view plasma boundary and CCD image in real-time, WEBSCOPE to view the diagnostic data via a web browser and EASTVOD to view and search plasma discharge image at different time, haven developed for EAST operation. Plasma control system is inherited from DIII-D, and has been matured to a stage to feedback control the EAST plasma shape, density and current in real time.
