Tune - BBQ

OP GUI

Acquisition, control, display, analysis
Dedicated application for tune measurement (both beams).
Will have a dedicated pick-up fitted with a BBQ front-end, which is just used to give continuous tune spectra using either Q-kicker, damper or residual excitation.

     LAFS
 

PLL measurement

OP GUI

4 BPL per beam for PLL tune measurement. & BQK (PLL tune kicker) per beam for PLL excitation

LHC Tune PLL system will also use a BBQ front-end to provide the tune data, but will then have a digital PLL implemented within the digital acquisition part of the chain. Excitation for the PLL is either via the damper or dedicated BI stripline "beam ticklers". The PLL system will use different pick-ups from the ones used for standard tune measurement.
