Abstract :
The basic design and status of the machine protection system for the Advanced Photon Source (APS) storage ring are discussed. The machine is passively safe to the bending magnet sources, but the high power of the insertion devices requires missteering conditions to be identified and the beam aborted in less than one millisecond. The basic aspects of water flow, temperature, beam position, etc. monitoring are addressed. Initial commissioning of subsystems and sensors is statused
