The three FEL lines are operated simultaneously and are powered by a superconducting LINAC based on TESLA technology. Average power levels of up to several W have been demonstrated as well for soft and hard X-rays and can be requested by user experiments on day by day basis. The contribution will report on the results of the commissioning within the last two years as well as on the transition to user operation. Typical operation conditions for parallel operation of 3 SASE lines will be discussed. The perspective for the operation with an extended photon energy range, as well as for full power operation with up to 27000 pulses per second will be presented.
