A fast vertical beam profile monitor has been implemented at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring (CESR). Readout is based on the Hamamatsu H7260K multianode photomultiplier. This device has a 32 channel linear anode array with 1 mm channel pitch and sub-nanosecond rise time. It provides the ability to probe individual electron and position bunches which are separated by 14 ns within the trains in CESR. A custom 72 MHz digitizer unit allows synchronous multibunch and turn-by-turn data acquisition. An on-board digital signal processor provides local data processing capability. This system provides the capability to probe a range of single bunch and multibunch beam dynamics issues as well as machine stability issues. In this paper we describe the profile monitor hardware, data acquisition system, calibration of the profile monitor, and data analysis software.
