For LCLS-II two undulators were installed at SLAC, one for soft and one for hard x-rays. Before the superconducting linac gets turned on the copper linac is providing beams at 120 Hz to these two beam destinations. The 120 Hz can be split in many different ratios between soft and hard via a pulsed magnet. To get an optimized beam for the quite different photon energies the pulsed linac components like modulators and RF can provide many different beam parameters, mainly energies and bunch lengths for the two undulator lines. How this was implemented with timing setups of triggers and finally after the split the necessary matching of the transverse phase space will be discussed., Proceedings of the 12th International Particle Accelerator Conference, IPAC2021, Campinas, SP, Brazil

The Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory is currently undergoing a major upgrade. In order to facilitate the development of new software that will be needed to operate the upgraded machine, a simulator has been developed to simulate the LCLS electron beam and the accelerator devices that measure and manipulate it. The simulator is comprised of several small "services" that simulate different types of devices, and provide an EPICS interface identical to the real control system. All of the services communicate with a central beam line model to change accelerator parameters and retrieve information about the simulated beam., Proceedings of the 17th International Conference on Accelerator and Large Experimental Physics Control Systems, ICALEPCS2019, New York, NY, USA

PyDM (Python Display Manager) is a framework for building control system user interfaces. A user interface for the LCLS (Linac Coherent Light Source) simulator has been built in PyDM. The simulator interface gives a realistic experience of operating many parts of the LCLS accelerator, and can be used for training new accelerator operators on routine tasks. This interface also provides a good demonstration of the experience of using PyDM in a real-world environment., Proceedings of the 17th International Conference on Accelerator and Large Experimental Physics Control Systems, ICALEPCS2019, New York, NY, USA

PyDM (Python Display Manager) is a Python and Qt-based framework for building user interfaces for control systems providing a no-code, drag-and-drop system to make simple screens, as well as a straightforward Python framework to build complex applications. PyDM developers and users can easily create complex applications using existing Python packages such as NumPy, SciPy, Scikit-learn and others. With high level interfaces for data plugins and external tools, PyDM can be extended with new widgets, integration with facility-specific tools (electronic log books, data logger viewers, et cetera) as well as new data sources (EPICS, Tango, ModBus, Web Services, etc) without the need to recompile or change the PyDM internal source., Proceedings of the 17th International Conference on Accelerator and Large Experimental Physics Control Systems, ICALEPCS2019, New York, NY, USA

PyDM (Python Display Manager) is a Python and Qt-based framework for building user interfaces for control systems providing a no-code, drag-and-drop system to make simple screens, as well as a straightforward Python framework to build complex applications. In this brief presentation we will talk about the state of PyDM, the new functionality that has been added in the last year of development, including full support for EPICS PVAccess and other structured data sources as well as the features targeted for release in 2020., Proceedings of the 17th International Conference on Accelerator and Large Experimental Physics Control Systems, ICALEPCS2019, New York, NY, USA
