The storage ring was modified in 2014 for an additional 12 beamlines in two extensions. It is operated with several filling modes with 100mA at electron beam energy of 6 GeV. The horizontal beam emittance is 1.30 nmrad with 1% coupling. During a user run the Machine Protection System may trigger an unscheduled beam dump if transients in the magnet power supply (PS) currents are detected which are above permissible limits. PS controllers provide transient recorder data, showing differences between current set-point and readout values in a time span of several seconds around the moment of a beam loss. We describe automatic management system handling a large number of PSs, performing automatic transient recorder data readout, storing and available for offline analysis. We discuss hardware implementation of transient recorders and its configuration software, a Java GUI application used to investigate the transient behavior of different PSs, which might have been responsible for emittance growth, orbit fluctuations, or the beam dumps seen in a post-mortem analysis.
