== P2.3 TCS communication test == 
•	**Phase**		:	2  
•	**Status**		: 	Draft	 
•	**Category**		: 	Daytime testing (functionality and operability)  (C2)	
•	**Recurrence**	: 	after instrument installation at telescope platform
•	**Duration**		: 	1 day
**Description**
•	Communication with the LBT TCS is tested, with the aim to verify that the interface with TCS works as expected. 
**Prerequisites**
•	All electronics and services up and running.
**Procedure**
•	Test all the TCS functionality needed by SHARK-NIR, which are detailed in AD2.
•	Check if the fits-writer is receiving all the right values from the LBT TCS.
•	Check if the derotator trajectory is received from the LBT TCS. The final testing of the trajectory with optical feedback will be done during the night time commissioning.

**Success criteria**
•	Connection to LBT TCS working well. All the test results are successful.
•	Fits-writer is receiving all the right values from LBT TCS.
**Notes**

**LBTO support**

* Authorize SHARK-NIR, connecting to ASM+LBTI AO system
* Permission to send preset, receiving LBT telemetry (inc. the derotator trajectory) and details for the Fitswriter,
* Support from the LBT SW team

**Associated SHARK-NIR personnel**

**Comments**

MB: perhaps let's add here the check that SOUL can retrieve images from SCICAM

MB: also ADC trajectories might be tested here. Let's ask luca/Vale/depa
