Description

In this paper we present the design and deployment of the software tools used for the automated parallel conditioning of 7 RF cavities on CLARA (Compact Linear Accelerator for Research Applications). The software tools consist of 4 distributed tools with the following responsibilities: Control, Acquisition, Visualisation, and Communication. In combination, these tools enabled the round-the-clock conditioning of all RF cavities with minimal operator intervention, achieving operating parameters for beam commissioning activities.
