getSystem() function
Within a matlab script you can use the getSystem function to determine the accelerator system defined in the current working environment. This is useful for writing scripts that can be used for multiple accelerator systems, with conditional actions depending on accelerator.

Wiki Markup\[system,accelerator\] = getSystem();

Return values are:

FACET

system = SYS1, accelerator = FACET

LCLS

system = SYS0, accelerator = LCLS

NLCTA

system = SYS4, accelerator = NLCTA

...

To obtain control system names and values, AIDA is accessible from the linux command line, via aidaWeb https://seal.slac.stanford.edu/aidaweb, through matlab and other language interfaces.
