  In Forschungszentrum Juelich the control and data acquisition systems for
several neutron spectrometers are being built. Because some of these
spectrometers will be commissioned to the new research reactor FRM-II at the
technical university of Munich, there was a joint effort with the
instrumentation group of the FRM-II to establish the "Juelich-Munich standard",
which is basically a collection of tools and devices which are used for the
implementation of the spectrometers. This includes: Siemens S7 PLCs for all
axis movement issues, PROFIBUS DP for the connection of slow control equipment
in the front end, TACO Middleware running on PC-Systems with Linux, python for
scripting and Qt for the implementation of GUIs. The paper describes the
implementation the control and data acquisition system of the KWS-1, the first
experiment built according to the above standard
