The protection system reacts to signals from various elements of the machine according to rules established in a setup database filtered by the program Mode Controller. This is achieved in accordance with commands from the operator and governed by the firmware logic of the MPS. This paper describes the firmware logic, architecture, and implementation of the program mode controller in an EPICs based environment.
