Abstract The accelerator of the SAGA Light Source (SAGA-LS) consists of a 255 MeV injector linac and a 1.4 GeV storage ring. The energy of the electrons is ramped up to 1.4 GeV in 4 minutes in the storage ring. The electron beam current stored in the storage ring is about 300 mA. At the begging of the energy ramp-up, the electron beam was lost like step function. The lost beam current was normally about 5 mA to 30 mA. To understand the beam loss mechanism, we developed simultaneous image logging system of beam profile in addition to the beam current, the magnets power supplies, and the beam positions using National Instruments PXI. It was found that the vertical beam size was growing in the step-like beam loss process. The small perturbation of the output currents of the quadrupole power supplies caused the vertical beam size growth. By optimizing the ramp-up pattern of the quadrupole power supplies, sextupole power supplies, and the steering power supplies for the orbit control, we have achieved the reduction of the step-like beam loss and total time of the ramp-up.
