  A time-of-flight measurement system has been in use at ISAC-II since 2006 for the phasing of cavities and accurate ion beam velocity measurements across the nuclear chart. This system is heavily relied upon as the primary energy-time domain diagnostic downstream of the ISAC-II linac. Ongoing High Level Applications (HLA) development at TRIUMF has enabled the use of methods that are being applied to these measurements - both for processing and automation of data acquisition. An update will be provided on operational experience with the system over the past 10 years including its recent re-calibration and error analysis. A brief summary of the current HLA framework will be given, including a database for beam measurements and the ability to carry out sequential measurement processes. Finally, the way in which these developments enable beam-based calibration of cavity parameters and a shift to model-based tuning methods is discussed.
