The beam interlock system of the LHC is a central system for machine protection since
it provides the interface between user systems and the beam dumping system. This
presentation is focused on the main design concepts and overall architecture of the
LHC beam interlock system. Interfaces to the interlock system users, to the beam
dumping system as well as to LHC injector chain will be...

The Beam Interlock System (BIS) forms the backbone of the LHC
Machine Protection System, allowing 100’s of distributed User
Systems to inhibit beam operation and request Beam Dump from all
around the 28 km circumference of the LHC. The time response of the
BIS is in the order of only 100s of microseconds from any connected
User System to the LHC Beam Dumping System. The rapid time...

For safe operation of the LHC, several critical parameters must be
generated and dependably distributed around the accelerator. These
parameters are principally the SAFE LHC ENERGY, the SAFE BEAM FLAGS
and the BEAM PRESENCE FLAGS.
The presentation explains how we intend to produce and generate the
Safe Beam Parameters. It describes how we are going to ensure a safe
and reliable...
