  The non-invasive diagnostics in the ALBA Booster-to-Storage (BTS) transfer consist of Beam Position Monitors (BPM) and Synchrotron Radiation Monitors (SRM), which together provide position, size and shape of the beam. However, they were not reliable enough for a systematic improvement of the transfer efficiency in the BTS, which has been fluctuating since day one. In order to optimize it, two major upgradse have been performed: first, the BPM electronics have been upgraded for single-pass beam detection, showing a factor 10 better position resolution than the former units. Secondly, the SRMs mechanics and automation were significantly improved to provide a more robust optics alignment. Both BPMs and SRMs are now routinely used to keep transmission efficiency along the BTS constant over weeks.
