A mode manager user interface has been created to manage the beamline configuration to transport beam pulses to multiple destinations, which include the numerous intermediate tune-up dumps and safety dumps between the injectors and the final beam dumps. The mode manager interfaces with the timing system which controls the bunch patterns to the various locations, and the machine protection system which prevents excess beam power from being sent to the wrong destination. This paper describes the implementation method for handling the mode switching, as well as the operator user interface which allows users to graphically select the desired beam paths.
