The macromolecular crystallography beamline BL17U1 of Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility (SSRF) is an important platform for structure biological science.High performance of the beamline would benefit the users greatly in their experiment and data acquisition.To take full advantage of the state-of-the-art mechanical and physical design of the beamline

we have made a series of efforts to develop a robust control and data acquisition system

with user-friendly GUI.These were done by adopting EPICS and Blu-Ice systems on the BL17U1 beamline

with considerations on easy accommodation of new beeline components.In this paper

we report the integration of EPICS and Blu-Ice systems.By using the EPICS gateway interface and several new DHS

Blu-Ice was successfully established for the BL17U1 beamline.As a result

the experiment control and data acquisition system is reliable and functional for users.
