  Continuous energy scanning is an important feature for many beamlines at BESSY II. In 2015 this method was used at 11 Undulator and 6 dipol beamlines.[1] Since then the demand for this feature - especially among new build beamlines - increased, while the availability of the used hardware decreased. In order to tackle this problem, we investigate into alternative solutions for both, hardware and software. By introducing an independent high level controller between the two device controllers, we can compensate for communication incompatibilities and hence increase flexibility. This paper shows the status of our research. The ideas leading to a first prototype, the prototype itself and first results will be presented.

  To maximize beamtime usage motorization of beamline equipment is crucial. Choosing the correct motor is complex, since performance depends largely on the combination of motor and motion controller [1]. This challenge, alongside renewing the twenty years old infrastructure at BESSY II, led to the demand for a motor testbench. The testbench was designed to be modular, so it fits different motors, loads and sensors. It allows independent performance verification and enables us to find a fitting combination of motor and motion controller. The testbench is operated via EPICS and Bluesky, allowing us usage of python for automated data acquisition and testing. An overview of the mechanical and electrical setup, as well as some data from different performance tests will be presented.
