The $\overline{\text{P}}$ANDA experiment is a pillar of the Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR) which is currently under construction in Darmstadt, Germany. $\overline{\text{P}}$ANDA will investigate open questions in hadron physics by studying the collision of a fixed target with antiprotons in the momentum range from $1.5\,\text{GeV}/c$ to $15\,\text{GeV}/c$.
The $\overline{\text{P}}$ANDA detector consists of 30 subsystems which all need several kinds of services (like high voltage, low voltage, cooling, gas etc.) to operate properly. The purpose of a detector control system (DCS) is to monitor and control all these devices, report to the crew on shift and provide insight to subsystem experts to solve any occuring problem.
The control software for the individual subsystem is created by the $\overline{\text{P}}$ANDA members responsible for said subsystem, but in addition components like the operator interfaces, alarm system and archiving system are managed by a dedicated Controls Group within the $\overline{\text{P}}$ANDA Collaboration.
This talk explores the challenges in bringing together heterogenic software components for a variety of different tasks and illustrates the way the $\overline{\text{P}}$ANDA Collaboration is solving these challenges.
This project is supported by the BMBF.
