  The Australian Synchrotron (AS) is aiming at implementing Top-Up operations in 2012. To reduce costs only one of the two klystrons in the linac will be used. The electron beam in the linac will only be accelerated to 80 MeV, instead of 100 MeV achieved currently. The injection system will need to be recommissioned. The beam position monitors in the booster have been upgraded and YAG:Ce screens have been added to the booster-to-storage ring (BTS) transfer line. In addition the injection efficiency will be optimized and monitored. For this purpose another Fast Current Transformer has also been installed at the end of the BTS.
