A free open source device-oriented controls toolkit for controlling any kind of hardware or software and building SCADA systems...
Because it is easy to use, flexible, and highly scalable. It provides a complete set of features for controlling equipment and lot of services for managing systems.
Just download it and install it. Then reuse or write a device server, deploy and marvel at how it works!
Tango is an Open Source solution for SCADA and DCS. Open Source means you get all the source code under an Open Source free licence (LGPL and GPL). Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems are typically industrial type systems using standard hardware. Distributed Control Systems (DCS) are more flexible control systems used in more complex environments. Sardana is a good example of a Tango based Beamline SCADA.
We are pleased to announce the immediate availability of a new release candidate for the upcoming cppTango release 10.3.0.
This release comes with new features for device server telemetry, improving the support for the OpenTelemetry standard.
See Release-of-cpptango-10-3-0-rc1 for more information.
The Tango Controls are meeting at ICALEPCS2025, the main event for the accelerator and large experiments controls community. Here are some highlights from the event.
The 39th Tango Community Meeting was hosted by INAF (Italian National Institute for Astrophysics) and INAF - Osservatorio Astronomico d'Abruzzo, in Giulianova (Italy). All the materials are now available on the Indico event page, including the recordings of all sessions, the presentations, and the Miro board used during open discussion:
