The central solenoid model coil (CSMC) of the China Fusion Engineering Testing Reactor (CFETR) is currently in the manufacturing phase. Once completed, the CSMC will be tested on a testing platform. The testing platform is composed of several subsystems, which are coordinated by a control system to conduct a successful experiment and collect scientific data generated during the experiments. A diagnostic system is employed for the purpose of monitoring the status of a superconducting magnet and triggers the alarm system if an abnormal signal has been detected. The central control system of the CSMC testing platform is called the control data access and communication (CODAC) system. In order to realize the normal data communication between the CODAC system and a subsystem, an experimental physics and industrial control system (EPICS) Channel Access (CA) protocol is needed.
