== P2.1 Basic functionality and shutdown procedure test, cryostat cooldown == - **Phase** : 2 - **Status** : Draft - **Category** : Daytime testing (functionality and operability) (C3) - **Recurrence** : once after instrument installation at telescope platform - **Duration** : 1 day **Description** - Activating the instrument after the installation of SHARK-NIR at the telescope platform. Verification of the shutdown procedure. **Prerequisites** - SHARK-NIR is installed on the LBT telescope platform. **Procedure** - Switch on all the cabinets, follow the instrument telemetry and see if the telemetry is logging. - Turn all the hardware subsystems turned on and start all the corresponding services. Check all the logs from the services. - Check the shutdown procedure. - Testing the electronics and SW rotation of the knob controlling the cool down process (LBTI side). - Cool down the cryostat. **Templates** **Success criteria** - Activating instrument successfully. - All systems are turned on, and the services are all running without any errors. - The shutdown procedure is checked and working as it should be. - Cryostat cooling started and is on track. **Notes** **LBTO support** - Testing the working of the knob (motor or manual) controlling the cooldown. - Liquid Nitrogen fill. - Vacuum pump (See activity P1.4 and P1.5 for more details). **Date performed and by whom**
