	Funding: Work Supported by Department of Energy Contract DE AC03 76SF00515 X-ray / optical laser pump - probe experiments are used for a significant fraction of the scientific work performed at LCLS. The experimental laser systems are locked to the timing of the electron beam through a combination of RF and optical fiber based systems. The remaining ~100 femtosecond RMS jitter of the X-rays relative to the optical laser is measured shot-to-shot by both a RF timing detector, and by direct X-ray to optical cross-correlation, and the result is used to correct the experiment timing to 10s of femtoseconds. We present the present status of the system and plans for future upgrades.
