  A scalable system for real-time analysis of electron temperature and density
based on signals from the Thomson scattering diagnostic, initially developed
for and installed on the NSTX-U experiment, was recently adapted for the Large
Helical Device (LHD) and operated for the first time during plasma discharges.
During its initial operation run, it routinely recorded and processed signals
for four spatial points at the laser repetition rate of 30 Hz, well within the
system's rated capability for 60 Hz. We present examples of data collected from
this initial run and describe subsequent adaptations to the analysis code to
improve the fidelity of the temperature calculations.
