Abstract

The purpose of the analog monitoring system (AMS) is to provide CEBAF operators the ability to monitor voltage signals from the RF control modules, beam loss monitors, and other dedicated systems from the accelerator service buildings with a 10 MHz (-1 dB), bandwidth. The signals are presented at the AMS receiving crate in the Machine Control Center (MCC). The system, when completed, will allow the operator to monitor any 4 signals from available channels in each location. At present these locations provide 800 signals in each of the linacs, 16 signals in each of the arcs, 120 signals in the injector, and 16 signals in the beam switchyard. This provides a total capacity of 1768 signals, with an upgrade ability of 3740 total signal capacity
