Abstract	Radio fre­quency (RF) con­di­tion­ing is an es­sen­tial stage dur­ing the prepa­ra­tion of par­ti­cle ac­cel­er­a­tor cav­i­ties for op­er­a­tion. Dur­ing this process the cav­ity field is grad­u­ally in­creased to the nom­i­nal pa­ra­me­ters en­abling the out­gassing of the cav­ity and the elim­i­na­tion of sur­face de­fects through elec­tri­cal arc­ing. How­ever, this process can be time-con­sum­ing and la­bor-in­ten­sive, re­quir­ing skilled op­er­a­tors to care­fully ad­just the RF pa­ra­me­ters. This pro­ceed­ing pre­sents the soft­ware tools for the de­vel­op­ment of an au­tom­a­tized EPICS con­trol ap­pli­ca­tion with the aim to ac­cel­er­ate and in­tro­duce flex­i­bil­ity to the con­di­tion­ing process. The re­sults from the con­di­tion­ing process of the ESS Ra­dio-Fre­quency Quadru­pole (RFQ) and the par­al­lel con­di­tion­ing of Drift-Tube Linac (DTL) tanks will be pre­sented demon­strat­ing the po­ten­tial to save con­sid­er­able time and re­sources in fu­ture RF con­di­tion­ing cam­paigns.
