In the process of making a detailed design for a synchrotron accelerator in Barcelona, we have designed and implemented the control system for a magnetic measurements system [1], conceived as an evaluation for the accelerator control system which is planned to use the EPICS toolkit [2].In this article, we introduce a new sequencing tool (called Finite State machine Queuing Tool or FSQT) and we discuss its design and its advantages using a new implementation of our test bench applications.FSQT has born from the limitations of the equivalent EPICS tool (the Sequencer).
