CALIFES is the probe beam linac developed by the CEA/DAPNIA and LAL in the frame of the CFT3 collaboration at CERN. Its objective is to "mimic" the main beam of CLIC in order to measure the performances of the 30 GHz CLIC accelerating structures. The requirements on the bunched electron beam in terms of emittance, energy spread and bunch-length are quite stringent and lead to use the most advanced techniques: laser triggered photo-injector, velocity bunching, RF pulse compression… In order to tune the machine and assess its performances before delivering the beam to the test stand a complete suit of diagnostics is foreseen including charge monitor, beam position and video profile monitors, deflecting cavity, RF pick-up and analysis dipole. All these diagnostics will be interfaced to the CERN command/control network. A special effort has been done on the Video Profile Monitors that make use of both scintillation and OTR (Optical Transition Radiation) screens and are fitted with 2 optical magnifications to fulfill field of view and resolution performances (<20μm). Their performances can be checked via an integrated resolution pattern.
