A snapshot of the current ID status of all beamlines can be viewed from the ID Overall Status screen. To view this screen, from the APS Storage Ring Display, under the ID section, left click the blue "ID" button to get the below menu. Scroll to "ID Overall Status" and click.

This will produce the below screen which lists every ID (some beamlines have 2 ID's, upstream ID indicated by "us", and downstream ID indicated by "ds"), the ID Access Mode (User, Operator, Machine Physics, or System Manager), the beamline commissioning limit, current gap (mm), energy (keV), and much other status information.
