  To check the feasibility of X-FEL(SCSS), the 250 MeV prototype accelerator was constructed at SPring-8. The low level RF control system with a 5712 MHz pulsed RF signal was built to achieve very-tight requirements that were phase stability and resolution of less than 1 deg.. These requirements correspond to a beam energy variation of 10-4 at the crest acceleration and time stability and resolution of less than 500 fs. To realize the requirements, IQ modulators/detectors, arbitrary wave form generators/detectors of VME modules to handle an IQ function were developed. The PID control and the adaptive control method, which the modules can manipulate, were employed to obtain the requirements. We finally achieved the phase setting and detecting resolution of the IQ detectors/modulators of ± 0.5 deg.. Decreasing the phase drift was achieved by the PID control program, and reducing the phase variation within a pulse width of 2 us was achieved by the adaptive control function on the VME modules. The unnecessary time jitters of the pulse were also automatically detected by the module function. In this paper, we describe a summary of the system and its phase control performance.
