== P2.2	Instrument operability and functioning == 
•	**Phase**		:	2  
•	**Status**		: 	Draft	 
•	**Category**		: 	Daytime testing (functionality and operability) (C3)				
•	**Recurrence**	: 	after instrument installation at telescope platform
•	**Duration**		: 	2 days
**Description**
•	The functionality and operability of individual components/subsystems are tested. This is followed by the checking of the internal alignment of the instrument using the light source within. The final step is the performance of the system.
**Prerequisites**
•	All electronics and services up and running.
**Procedure**
•	Initialize all the motors/sub-systems.
•	Check the functionality of all the motors (home position, named/nominal positions, and reaching software limits).
•	Check the working of all the light sources.
•	Using the on-axis diffraction-limited light source, check the internal alignment of the SHARK-NIR.
* Check of on-axis optical quality using phase diversity and of the relative positions of the coronagraphic masks.
**Success criteria**
•	Motors and light sources working as they should.
•	The internal alignment is preserved.
•	Performance of the system is acceptable.
