The Taiwan Photon Source (TPS) is a modern, high brightness 3 GeV light source. A data acquisition program for the radio frequency (RF) system, including a transient data recorder, a long term data archiver and real time data monitoring, has been developed for the analysis of RF trips and RF system debugging. A soft alarm system is implemented as well utilizing EPICS and python packages. The hardware architecture and the functionality of the RF data acquisition and soft alarm system will be discussed in this article.
