Abstract: The mass separator of super heavy elements also known as MASHA setup from the automation systems point of view is described. The setup uses ISOL (Isotope Separation On-Line) method and represents the modular online mass spectrometer where masses of new elements from helium up to mass A=450 are measured directly in the course of their synthesis with accelerated heavy-ion beams. During the last years the control, the data acquisition and the beam diagnostics systems were modified. The modernization was in changing the platforms to the modern one from the CAMAC to the NI PXI and from the SmartBOX to the Wago PLC and the NI CompactRIO. The TIMEPIX detectors were used with modernized MASHA setup in the experiments with heavy ion beams at cyclotron MC400. The results obtained in these experiments are presented and discussed.
