abstract = {{KAHVE Laboratory has two functional particle sources: thermal electrons and ionized hydrogen. Each of these are followed by DC acceleration sections, for obtaining an electron beam to accelerate electrons MeV energy level and for providing protons to the radio frequency quadrupole accelerator which are being built. So far both systems have keV energy levels. Both systems employ LabVIEW based GUIs to interact with the user and to control and monitor the DC power supplies. The vacuum gauges, turbomolecular pumps, stepper motors and high voltage power supplies are all controlled with PLCs. The equipment under high voltage, are monitored and controlled via Arduino based wifi and bluetooth wireless communication protocols. The proton beamline has additional devices for beam diagnostics which are being commissioned like pepper pot plate, scintillator screen and faraday cup. Both systems are being standardize before MeV energy level for generalize to national labs which are working on detectors and accelerators. We believe such a setup could be a low budget control and readout example for modern small experiments and educational projects.}},
