FRIB, East Lansing, USA
The Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) accelerates many different ion species and charge states defining a wide spectrum of operating modes and parameters. The role of the Run Permit System (RPS) here is to examine if a requested state is suitable for the production of beam. The decision to permit beam is based on input from configuration management databases, machine and personnel protection systems, and beam characteristics and destination. Seeded with this information, an appropriate set of operating parameters are deployed to hardware to support the requested mode. This contribution will describe the interfaces, implementation, and behavior of the RPS at FRIB.
