  A diagnostic tool to determine the longitudinal particle filling pattern has been installed at the 1.5 GeV electron storage ring DELTA. The instrument is PC-based using an ADC-conversion at a sampling rate of 2 GS/s and a nominal bandwidth of 1 GHz which is applied to the sumsignal of a single storage ring beam position monitor. By sampling over successive turns the resolution is enhanced by one order of magnitude allowing an easy access to the longitudinal particle distribution inside the ring. The data obtained turn-by-turn over hundreds of revolutions can be further analysed by FFT-techniques allowing a very fast detection (~ 1 s) of longitudinal coupled bunch mode (CBM) instabilities from the phase modulated spectrum. The application of the FFT to the amplitude modulated particle distribution moreover allows a "post mortem"-investigation of CBM induced beam loss. The paper will present the layout of the diagnostic system and will report on filling pattern measurements as well as on investigations of longitudinal CBM-instabilities.
