  The Free Electron Laser (SwissFEL) Injector Test Facility at Paul Scherrer Institute has been in operations for more than three years. The Injector Test Facility machine is a valuable development and validation platform for all major SwissFEL subsystems including controls. Based on the experience gained from the Test Facility operations support, the paper presents current and some perspective controls solutions focusing on the future SwissFEL project.

  High brightness electron bunches will be guided in the future Free Electron Laser (SwissFEL) at Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) with the use of several hundred magnets. The SwissFEL machine imposes very strict requirements not only to the field quality but also to mechanical and magnetic alignments of these magnets. To ensure that the magnet specifications are met and to develop reliable procedures for aligning magnets in the SwissFEL and correcting their field errors during machine operations, the PSI magnet test system was upgraded. The upgraded system is a high precision measurement setup based on Hall probe, rotating coil, vibrating wire and moving wire techniques. It is fully automated and integrated in the PSI controls. The paper describes the main controls components of the new magnet test setup and their performance.
