Abstract In DC ion beam tandem accelerator facilities commonly Helix Rotating wire Beam Profile Monitors (BPM) are used to monitor the shape and location of the beam. These BPM's are used in combination with a BPM Selection station which activates and conditions signals for display on an Oscilloscope for visualization. At ANSTO we have been developing an alternative system to allow management of concurrent off the shelf NEC BPM's, and to construct a 2D approximation of the particle beam based on programmable hardware and software. This paper will review the current status of the development, and the potential features which can be gained with this technological approach.
