	The Free-Electron Laser in Hamburg (FLASH) at Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron (DESY), Hamburg Germany is a user facility providing ultra-short, femtosecond laser pulses up to the soft X-ray wavelength range. For the precise regulation of the radio frequency (RF) fields within the 60 superconducting cavities, which are organized in 5 RF stations, digital low level RF (LLRF) control systems based on the MTCA.4 standard were implemented in 2013. Until now experiences with failures potentially due to radiation, overheating, and ageing as well as with the general operation of the control systems have been gained. These have a direct impact on the operation and on the performance of FLASH and will allow future improvements. The lessons learned are not only important for FLASH but also in the scope of European X-ray Free-Electron Laser (X-FEL), which will be operated with the same LLRF control system.

	High voltage RTM Piezo Driver has been developed to support special diagnostic applications foreseen for XFEL facility. The RTM is capable of driving 4 piezo actuators with voltages up to ±80 V. The solid-state power amplifiers are driven using 18-bit DACs and sampling rates of 1 MSPS. The bandwidth of the driver is remotely tunable using programmable low pass filters. The 4-channel Piezo Driver unit provides the information of piezo output voltage and current. Three independent test setups have been built to test 4-channel Piezo Driver performance. In the paper we are presenting EOD laser lock to 1.3 GHz FLASH master oscillator using bipolar piezo stretcher (fine tuning). The piezo motor based course tuning has been applied for the long term laser stability measurements. The unipolar piezo actuator operation has been demonstrated for the Origami Onefive laser locked to 1.3 GHz LAB MO. The preliminary results of active stabilization of 3 km fiber link laboratory setup are shown.

	The European X-ray free electron laser (XFEL) at the Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron (DESY), Hamburg Germany is in its construction phase. Approximately a third of the super-conductive cryomodules have been produced and tested. The RF gun is installed since 2013; periods of commissioning are regularly scheduled between installation phases of the rest of the injector. The first linac, L1, consisting of 4 cryomodules powered by one 10 MW klystron is installed and being commissioned. This contribution reports on the installation and preparation work of the low-level radio frequency system (LLRF) to perform the commissioning of the XFEL first components. The commissioning plans, schedule and first results are presented.

	In the Accelerator Module Test Facility (AMTF) at DESY in Hamburg RF cavities and accelerating cryomodules are tested for the European X-ray Free Electron Laser (XFEL). Measurements are done by a team of physicists, engineers and technicians from The Henryk Niewodniczanski Institute of Nuclear Physics Polish Academy of Sciences in Kraków, Poland, as a part of Polish in-kind contribution to the XFEL. The testing procedures providing information about maximum available gradient and heat loads measurement are performed for the high gradients (up to 31MV/m). During these tests the cavity deformation caused by the Lorentz force is compensated by piezo (fast) tuners. For this purpose automated high level software was developed. This paper describes a method used to tune automatically the cavities during the RF tests. It was validated with the XFEL cryomodules. This improvement was implemented into the testing software and it is successfully used for testing of serial production cavities.

	Accelerators are affected by the cavities detuning variation caused by external mechanical disturbances (microphonics). The paper presents microphonics estimation and prediction methods applicable for superconducting accelerators operating in pulsed mode. A mathematical model is built using the estimates of detuning during previous RF pulses. The model can be used for predictions of disturbances for the future time step and setup of the fast tuners accordingly. The proposed method was successfully verified with measurements conducted at the FLASH linac.

	The XFEL accelerator will be equipped with 100 accelerating modules. Each accelerating module will host 8 superconducting cavities. Every single cavity will be equipped with a mechanical tuner. Coarse tuning will be supported by a step motor; fine tuning will be handled by double piezoelectric elements installed inside a single mechanical support, providing actuator and sensor functionality or redundancy. Before the main linac installation, all its subcomponents need to be tested and verified. The AMTF (Accelerator Module Test Facility) has been built at DESY to test all XFEL cryomodules. In total 1600 piezos need to be tested. Test procedures for fast frequency tuners have been developed to check their basic performance in cryogenic conditions (tuning range, polarity, acting and sensing abilities). High level applications perform fully automated tests including report generation. After the successful completion of the acceptance tests, the cryomodules will be prepared for tunnel installation.
