            This paper presents a new digital beam position monitor
            (DBPM) system which is currently under development
            for the Swiss Light Source (SLS). It is designed to
            provide sub-micron position data in normal closed orbit,
            and feedback mode as well as turn by turn information
            for machine studies and real time tune measurements.
            The self calibrating four channel system consists of a RF
            front end, a digital receiver and a DSP module. The same
            electronics will be used in all sections of the SLS accelerator
            complex. The system can be reconfigured in real
            time to perform different kind of measurements like:
            pulsed for linac and transfer lines, first turn, turn-by-turn,
            closed orbit, feedback and even tune mode for booster
            and storage ring. These reconfigurations only involve
            downloading of new signal processing software and will
            be performed via EPICS control system. An independent
            system for monitoring mechanical drifts of the BPM stations
            will be installed as well. The measured data will be
            permanently updated in a database and taken into account,
            when processing the final electron beam positions.
