# ARGUS
2+
3+
This page collects information that will be useful for the implementation of the IBEX control system on ARGUS.
4+
## Background & Timeline ##
5+
ARGUS is a general purpose muon spectrometer at ISIS, on TS1. The [ARGUS](https://www.isis.stfc.ac.uk/Pages/argus.aspx) web page describes the background to the instrument.
6+
7+
## Control System ##
8+
ARGUS will migrate from the SECI control system to the IBEX control system in MMMMMMMM YYYY.
9+
10+
## ARGUS Equipment ##
11+
The equipment listed below is used on ARGUS. Please add new information (e.g. new items of equipment, new notes, information about drivers, etc. to this table).

93+
1. On muon instruments, the Triton fridges have an additional Lakeshore controller (the 372) to allow control and continuous readout of the sample temperature (the OI software doesn't allow this using the in-built Lakeshore, despite the unit having a dedicated channel for the sample thermometry).

## Obsolete ARGUS Equipment & SECI Configs ##
137+
The equipment listed below is referenced in SECI config files on ARGUS. It is highly likely that the config files are no longer relevant (they are old, dating from 2011 or 2012), therefore, the references are to devices that are obsolete or simply not used on ARGUS.
