BPMs
Complete Linac BPM upgrade with EPICS digitizers
New BPM cableplant from striplines to processor already installed to 3 locations per linac sector
Timing cable plant to each linac sector also installed
Install VME crates with IOC & EVR together with front end and digitizer in remaining sectors
In principal agreed to, awaiting account number.

RF Systems
Upgrade Phase and Amplitude Detectors (PADs) Replace obsolete, unsupported SLAC PADsWith new LCLS higher resolution digitizersVers. 1 LCLS PAD has bottleneck in the Coldfire PUpgrade with better performing DSP – full BSA
Linac upgrade of MKSU & PIOPsReplace obsolete, unsupported hardwareImprove performance with single pulse RF waveform captureUse embedded timing EVR and optimize design for large number of unitsPreliminary conceptual design with embedded processor, FPGA and PCI
Linac upgrades with sold state subboosters Partially implemented at LCLS injector both reliability and control benefits. Performance and flexibility with individual klystron Phase and Amplitude Control (PAC)
Linac modulator and interlocks upgrade

RF Systems (cont.)
Phase reference line and timing fiber backboneBeam based longitudinal feedback on energy and bunch needed to meet performance specificationsFurther stabilizing the reference phase distribution relieves some of the feedback burden and improves performance at low beam rate and recovery from periods of no beam.
Extend the LCLS in-tunnel, temp. stabilized, hard copper phase ref. line to more sectorsDerive new phase reference form the optically stabilized fiber distribution system

LBNL Stabilized Fiber SystemJ. Byrd, L. Doolittle, J. Staples, R. Wilcox
New LLRF receiver uses feedforward on RF phase rather than correcting actual fiber length

Fiber Stabilization Results
Measure 25 fs noise in 1 ns fiber length change
Can compensate for 1 ps group delay error from carrier down to 35 fs

Timing system
The present LCLS Event Generator (EVG) slaves off the SLC Master Pattern Generator (MPG) via PNET
EVG can take over this role but needs to be programmed with non-LCLS beam codes
Event system hardware is proprietary (MicroResearch Finland)
Have started working on an embedded Event Receiver (EVR) into FPGAs used in generic control modules such as the link node chassis

Machine Protection System
LCLS relies on a new MPS
Old MPS works via the MPG, which is going away.
Upstream linac will need to be converted to new MPS
In conjunction with linac RF upgrades we will integrate klystrons into new MPS
Preemptive beam abort when a klystron cycles

New Diagnostics
Restore diagnostics cut from the original planLinac BPMs, Wire scanners, dump screen cameras
As the need arises, support new diagnostics forHigher resolution bunch length measurement
THz spectrometer, X-band TCAV
Bunch arrival time monitoring for both photon and electron bunches
Emittance control: laser heater, foils

Relational Database
Oracle was added after the controls architecture was established
We have now become dependant on the RDBConfig control, online model etc
Validation of consistency between EPICS and Oracle has become key
But, still waiting to hire a DB engineer
Ultimately move to a situation where Oracle is the master of the EPICS distributed DBs.

Further out
Interleaved operation of multiple undulator beamlines
Approval of upstream PPA programs such as FACET, requiring controls upgrades to the remainder of the linac to comply with new systems
Both of these require simultaneous operation of multiple beams on different timeslots
