Abstract: For the future Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR), which is currently under construction, a new Control System is being developed and already used at major parts of the GSI facility. The central component for Settings Management within the FAIR Control System is based on CERN’s framework 'LHC Software Architecture' (LSA) and enhanced by FAIR specific features. One of the most complex features is the control mechanism of storage ring operations, the so-called Storage Ring Mode. This operation mode allows to manipulate device settings while the beam is circulating in the ring. There are four different types of possible changes in the Storage Ring Mode: skipping, repetition, breakpoint and manipulation. The Storage Ring Mode was developed in late 2019 and first used with beam in 2020 at the existing heavy ion Storage Ring ESR at GSI. This contribution illustrates in detail how the Storage Ring Mode is implemented within LSA and other subsystems. It also shows how it is operated using the Expert Storage Ring Mode application.
