The SNS SC linac (SCL) is designed to deliver 1 GeV, up to 1.56 MW pulsed H- beams for neutron production. Beam commissioning of the SNS accelerator systems completed in June 2006 with the maximum linac output beam energy approximately 952 MeV. In 2007, we successfully tuned the SCL for 1 GeV beams during a test run, and the SNS linac achieved its design energy for the first time. During the linac tune-up, phase scan signature matching, drifting beam measurement as well as linac RF cavity phase scaling was applied. In this paper, we will introduce the experiences with the SCL, and we will also briefly discuss beam parameter measurements.
