Abstract Modern digital BPM detectors measure not only the beam positions, four buttons SUM signal can be very helpful for machine developments and operations. At NSLS-II, BPM SUM signal has been used from commissioning stage, to investigate localized beam losses. During top-off operation, precise beam lifetime measurement within relative short period of time becomes important. With many BPMs along the ring, BPM SUM can be a much more accurate tool to measure the beam current and lifetime. BPM SUM signal shall be proportional to beam current, and it may depends on button sizes and BPM chamber geometry, cable attenuations, electronics attenuations, beam position, bunch lengths, fill pattern etc. Experience of BPM SUM signals measurements will be presented.
