  Constants of beam motion help as cross checks to analyze beam diagnostics and the modeling procedure. Pseudo-constants, like the betatron mismatch parameter or the coupling parameter det C, are constant till certain elements in the beam line change then. This can be used to visually find the non-desired changes, pinpointing errors compared with the model.

  In order to benefit from further reduction of the vertical IP beta function of the PEP-II HER the bunch length should be reduced. This will be achieved by changing the phase advance from 60 deg to 90 deg in the four arcs not adjacent to the IR region, thus reducing momentum compaction by about 30% and reducing bunch length from a present 12 mm down to 8.5 mm at low beam current. In preparation to implement the 90 deg lattice the main HER quadrupole and sextupole strings and their power supplies have been reconfigured. Compared to the 60 deg lattice it was expected that dynamic aperture and injection will be more difficult. The synchrotron tune initially will be lower but can be brought back by raising the rf voltage. Beam emittance is held at 48 nmr by introducing a significant dispersion beat in the arcs. The lattice was successfully commissioned at currents up to 800mA in August 2007. In this paper we will compare the actual machine with the predicted behaviour, explain the correction strategies used and give an overall assessment of the operation and the benefit of the new lattice configuration.
