Abstract With the installation and commissioning of the third accelerating cryomodule in summer of 2014 the first phase of the radioactive ion beams postaccelerator ReA at National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory (NSCL) at Michigan State University (MSU) will be completed. ReA was integrated in 2013 into the Coupled Cyclotron Facility providing unique low-energy rare isotope beams. After the fast rare isotopes are stopped in a gas stopping system, mass separated and their charge state boosted in an Electron Beam Ion Trap (EBIT), the ions are reaccelerated in a compact superconducting (SC) LINAC. For rare isotope operations, the LINAC is pre-tuned using stable pilot beams with a similar mass to charge ratio as the rare isotope beams and consequently the system is scaled. Scaling steps of up to 5\% are needed to change to the radioactive beams. To preserve the stringent beam characteristic on the experimental end station a precise online model is required. We will present the status of this online model.
