Description

As in 2008, the access system has been used in different configurations all along the 2009 year, following the machine status: shut-down (plus reparation), powering tests period and finally beam operation. The performances following the different evolutions introduced during the year and the issues, solved or still pending, will be reviewed during the presentation. The list of needed modifications for a more reliable and efficient use of the system for 2010 run will also be presented and in particular the effort for the material detection device (MAD). And finally, the current implementation of the software interlock between the access system and the power converters will be presented reviewed and discussed.
