Tuner control >1deg. Detuning, tuner control starts. Stop tuning control when the detuning becomes <0.2deg. A klystron drives 2 cavities. ADC_1,2:cavity field monitors ADC_3,4:cavity input monitors Detuning is calculated from the difference between input and cavity by DSP. -> Tuner control is carried out by DSP.
