The magnetic configuration of TJ-II in vacuum is completely determined by the currents flowing through the external coils. Magnetic configurations are labelled as 'xxx_yy_zz', where
- 'xxx': 10 times the current (in kA) in the circular coil
- 'yy': 10 times the current (in kA) in the helical coil
- 'zz': 10 times the current (in kA) in the vertical field coils
The current in the toroidal field coils is not specified, as its value is adjusted to guarantee central absorption of the Electron Cyclotron Resonant Heating source (requiring a specific 'resonant' value of the magnetic field at the magnetic axis, ).

Flexibility

TJ-II has considerable configurational flexibility, as observed in the 'flexibility diagram'[1]. Some of this flexibility space has been explored, as in the 'magnetic well scan' experiments[2]. More recently, the rotational transform in the plasma edge region was found to be of importance for L-H confinement transitions[3].
