  • Page 9: Bcm-Ihr Set

    BCM-IHR version This manual applies to newer BCM-IHR-E Beam Charge Monitor, Integrate-Hold-Reset versions. These BCM-IHR sets usually consist of at least one BCM-IHR-E electronics module and one BCM-RFC/xx 3U x 19” chassis. This User's manual does not describe older BCM versions, housed in an ABS plastic enclosure.
  • Page 10: Db9 Remote Control Key

    A "DB9 Remote control key" is supplied with the Beam Charge Monitor. Its purpose is to control the BCM-IHR-E ranges when the accelerator control system is not connected. It is a small auxiliary printed circuit board attached to a DB9 connector. An 8-bit switch is mounted on the printed circuit board.
  • Page 11: General Description

    It supports pulse/macropulse repetition rates up to 1 kHz. System components ICT Integrating Current Transformer is the sensor matching BCM-IHR-E. ICT is available in two styles: • In-flange ICT to be bolted in-line with the vacuum chamber •...
  • Page 12: Operating Principle

    BCM-IHR-E User Manual Version 4.0 OPERATING PRINCIPLE Integrating Current Transformer ICT Integrating Current Transformer is a passive transformer designed to measure charges of very fast pulses with high accuracy. Beam pulses may have any length shorter than the ICT output signal.
  • Page 13: Cable Connection

    Signal processing The BCM-IHR-E input signal is amplified by the Charge Amplifier. The amplified signal enters the Bunch Signal Processor, which integrates this signal every time the BCM-IHR-E is triggered by an external trigger. This gives the possibility to measure selected pulses only, not necessarily at a fixed repetition rate.
  • Page 14: Timing Of The Bcm-Ihr

    The Hold time or Cycle duration T can be adjusted by potentiometer "Cycle (Hold) Time". It is located on the BCM-IHR-E board. The cycle duration T must not be made shorter than the sum of the trigger delay and the two integration windows.
  • Page 15: Beam Charge Monitor Output

    To locate on-board potentiometers, please refer to chapter "Settings", in this manual. On-line calibration On-line calibration of the BCM-IHR-E is possible at any time when there is no beam. Even when the no-beam time is short, on-line calibration may still be possible.
  • Page 16: Bcm-Ihr System Check

    BCM chassis is equipped with Minmax AKF-15D15 power supply units Their AC mains input range is 85Vac to 263 Vac, 50/60Hz. If the mains voltage does not fall within those limits, contact Bergoz Instrumentation at info@bergoz.com. Quick Check You can check immediately that your BCM system is working. This is what you need: •...

    In ex-factory conditions the hold time terminates 400 µs after the trigger. • Final step, falling edge: The hold time has finished. The BCM-IHR-E output is reset to zero. The Beam Charge Monitor is ready to receive another trigger.
  • Page 21: The Bcm-Ihr System Does Not Behave As Described

    The BCM-IHR system does not behave as described If your BCM-IHR-E is in ex-factory conditions, it should behave as described above. If it does not, check the switch settings on the "Remote Control" key: All switches should be in the OFF, i.e., “0”...
  • Page 22: Sensitivity Of The Bcm-Ihr-E

    BCM-IHR-E gain: • two core ICT with 5:1 turns ratio (= 10 Vs/C sensitivity), • BCM-IHR-E set to maximum gain (+20 dB on first stage and +20 dB on second stage) The achievable performance is: • Full scale is ±400 pC for ±8V output •...
  • Page 23: Remote Range And Calibration Switching

    Version 4.0 REMOTE RANGE and CALIBRATION SWITCHING All BCM-IHR-E functions can be controlled via a DB9 connector located on the back of the BCM chassis by applying TTL levels to the available 8 bits. An 8-bit DIP switch, attached to a DB9 male connector, is provided for user convenience, to simulate the presence of the control system.
