 **Description**
-•       Evaluate the NCPA working and performance using the baseline approach, phase-diversity approach using the Wollaston prism & dual-band imaging, and measurement of NCPA using SHARK-NIR internal calibration sources.
+- Verify the acquisition sequence for SHARK-NIR
 
 **Prerequisites**
-•       Atmospheric conditions: TBD
-•       Authorize SHARK-NIR on the SX side.
-•       AO working.
-•       Target(s) at different Zenith distances with different magnitudes.
-* look up tables of already calibrated NCPA measurements.
+- Atmospheric conditions: should be able to see bright stars in the sky (preferably close to zenith?).
+- Authorize SHARK-NIR on the SX side.
+- Suitable bright enough target (including the possibility of performing AO).
 
 **Procedure**
-•       Acquire star of a given magnitude. Start SOUL-AO. Start internal-TT loop.
-* Check the working and performance of the NCPA (already calibrated) baseline approach. Take images at SCICAM.
-* Check the phase diversity NCPA approach using Wollaston prism + DI-DBI (already calibrated). Take images at SCICAM.
-* If the PSF after applying the calibrated NCPA is bad, we could close the SHARK-NIR shutter (can have the SOUL-AO running parallel) and do a quick internal NCPA measurement (either till the NCPA modal coefficients or until the new shape on ALPAO-DM) to confirm that the alignment of SHARK-NIR is still good. This would mean that the NCPA already calibrated is not good enough!
-* Measure the phase diversity NCPA approach using Wollaston prism + DI-DBI  and using real star (need to do on the spot, but script exists). Take images at SCICAM.
-* Check the pupil position inserting the pupil lens.
-* Repeat for a different star (of different magnitudes and for a different elevation of the telescope). It is also good to do this for different seeing conditions.
+- Start the acquisition sequence: collimating the telescope to reduce the aberrations, close the loop and produce better ASM flat, NCPA estimation using phase-diversity algorithm, close SHARK-NIR tip-tilt+NCPA loop, and check the PSF quality at SCICAM. 
+- Save telemetry (open and closed loop of the ALPAO DM).

 **Success criteria**
-• NCPA estimated and applied on the ASM / ALPAO DM.
-* Cross-check the NCPA performances with the daytime activity [wiki:/docs/CommissioningPlan/P2.6 P2.6].
-* The total residual after NCPA correction should be <30nm.
+- Successful acquisition sequence.

-**comment**
-* perform for 5 cases eg Rmag 8, 10, 10, 12, 14. These five cases where the star has different mag and at different zenith angles over different nights (so different seeing).
