RF conditioning of the RF Electron Source started successfully on March 17th. The conditioning process continued during April 2026 to reach a peak power of 4.7 MW with pulses of 4.3 micro-seconds duration and 1 Hz repetition rate. This milestone was the successful result of mechanical installation & alignment, development of a limited remote-control and interlock system, and cooperation of the LINAC subsystems including LLRF, vacuum, cooling water systems, and high-power RF units.
