 - **Category**  :       Nighttime testing (functionality and operability) (C5)
 - **Recurrence**        :       once at commissioning
-- **Duration**  :       1 night
+- **Duration**  :       2 hours
 
 **Description**
-- Evaluate the performance of the SHARK-NIR ADC.
+- The field stabilized mode, or in other words, the working of the bearing tracking service, will be tested.
 
 **Prerequisites**
-- Atmospheric conditions: photometric.
+- Atmospheric conditions: AO working conditions.
 - Authorize SHARK-NIR on the SX side.
-- Photometric stars as targets for every filter.
-- AO is working.
-- Target(s) at different Zenith distances?
+- Targets (star cluster) near zenith and horizon (say airmass of 2).
 
 **Procedure**
-- Check the working of the ADC using different targets in varying zenith distances and observing using different science filters?
+- Select the target near airmass 2. There should be stars spread across the entire SCICAM, preferably close to the edges as well.
+- Start the bearing tracking services (field-stabilized mode). 
+- Take short-exposure images for a duration of ##minutes.
+- Check the positions of these stars.
+- Repeat the same for the target close to the zenith. 
+- Repeat the same steps for a target where the rotation of the bearing is in the opposite direction.

 **Success criteria**
-- xxx
+- The bearing tracking service works well, and the field is stabilized within the precision needed.
