== P2.8	Science detector calibrations and total check up == 
•	**Phase**		:	2  
•	**Status**		: 	Draft	 
•	**Category**		: 	Daytime testing (functionality and operability) (C3) + Daytime calibration (C4)
•	**Recurrence**	: 	once at commissioning
•	**Duration**		: 	1 day
**Description**
•	After the installation of the SHARK-NIR at the LBT platform, the science detector is tested for all its read-out modes, windowing possibilities. Also, some of the calibration scripts are rechecked.
**Prerequisites**
•	SCICAM cooled down.

**Procedure**
•	Repeat the science calibrations below (some of these are performed when SHARK-NIR was in the LBT cleanroom. Check [wiki:/docs/CommissioningPlan/P1.11 P1.11]) for details.

**Success criteria**
•	All calibrations successfully tested.
* All the read-out modes and windowing possibilities of the SCICAM are tested successfully.
* All relevant information (files) are saved in the repository.
**Notes**
•	The time dedicated to this activity has to be considered in combination with other activities. Parallelism is possible.
