A layer of software application called the timing manager has been created to track the LEReC beam concerning the RHIC beam and allow instruments to be fired in real-time units instead of bunch timing or RHIC turns. The manager also automates set-tings of different modes based on the RF frequency and maintains the timing of instrumentation with a beam. A detailed description of the bunch structure and scheme of synchronizing the RF and laser pulses will be discussed in the paper.
