Status of the BPM Upgrade at ANKA — •Sebastian Marsching, Nicole Hiller, Erhard Huttel, Vitali Judin, Benjamin Kehrer, Marit Klein, Christina Meuter, Anke-Susanne Müller, Michael Nasse, Marcel Schuh, Nigel Smale, and Max Streichert — Karlsruhe Institute of Technology

A new beam-position monitoring and diagnostic system is being commissioned at ANKA, the synchrotron light source of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology. This system uses Instrumentation Technologies' Libera Brilliance devices for the BPM read-out electronics. This data-acquisition devices provide turn-by-turn information about the beam position. This information can be used for beam diagnostics (e.g. finding the position where the beam is lost during injection phase) and can also form the base of a fast orbit-correction scheme.

We present studies comparing the performance of the new BPM electronics with the old devices and provide an insight into the experience gained during the commissioning process.
