The LUX beamline is a novel laser-plasma accelerator, built in close collaboration of the University of Hamburg and DESY. Here, we report on the commissioning of a dedicated pump/probe beam for advanced diagnostics and first user experiments. Close to the plasma target we split 1% pulse energy off of the main 200 TW Angus driver laser and re-compress the beam using chirped mirrors. Timing stability was demonstrated to be better than few fs using cross-correlation in a BBO crystal. We will present the current status of the setup and discuss first experiments.
