The Stanford 2 GeV electron-positron storage ring is equipped with 20 beam position monitors. The principle of beam coupling is analysed and a calculation is made here for the sensitivity to beam current and position, as well as for the intrinsic distortion of this type of monitor. Beam orbit coordinates are reconstructed by scanning the monitor's four electrode signals and the 20 stations around the machine. Normalization of the data and electronics nonlinearity compensation are one of the routine tasks of the computer control system.
