I WANT MY SWIS TV!

The dissemination of information is a hot topic at Jefferson Lab. To aid in providing accelerator information to employees and users, the Physics and Accelerator Divisions have jointly launched the SWIS Screen. SWIS, an acronym for Site Wide Information System, is a television system that displays up-to-date information about the accelerator and the experimental halls. The system alternates between two screens; one displays how much current is being delivered to each hall in microamps, and the other displays the energy that the beam is running in each hall. Each screen is accompanied by a line graph that displays how much beam current has been delivered during the past eight hours. The screens have the capability to display other types of information, but are mainly designed to support Jefferson Lab's scientific purpose. Thirteen televisions are located throughout the site.
