NSLS II injector integrated testing

The NSLS-II is a state-of-the-art 3 GeV synchrotron light source under construction at Brookhaven National Laboratory. Since 2012, the injector system gradually moves to the commissioning stage. To make the commissioning smooth and efficient, an emphasis was put on the sub-system integration test to make sure the injector system components function along with utilities, timing system and control system, to calibrate diagnostics system and to test high level applications with simulated beam signals and required hardware. In this paper, we report our experience with the integrated testing of the NSLS-II injector.
