== P2.2	Instrument operability and functioning == 

- **Phase**		:	2  
- **Status**		: 	Draft	 
- **Category**	: 	Daytime testing (functionality and operability) (C3)				
- **Recurrence**	: 	once 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 are 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.

**Templates**

**Success criteria**
- Motors and light sources are working as they should.
- The internal alignment is preserved.
- Performance of the system is acceptable.
