The need for monitoring the sun in the prominent Hα-line is evident. For a long time this recording was done on photographic film at Kanzelhöhe Solar Observatory. Now with the evolution of CCDs and digital mass storage devices it is possible and even more economical to do this job digitally. A 1kx1k CCD camera and a standard frame grabbing system on a conventional PC are attached to the established Kanzelhöhe Patrol Instrument with a narrow band Hα filter. At the present state a very simple frame selection mechanism is installed to improve the image quality. The data are archived on CDs. The development of a standard image processing and evaluation system is in progress. Low cadence synoptic images are currently fed into the SOHO synoptic database. Instant data access from the Kanzelhöhe database via WWW is planned.
