Description
Before the first LHC beam operation and following the LHC hardware
commissioning a cold checkout period is required to check the
simultaneous functioning of the various LHC subsystem in their final
configuration. Following this cold checkout period a set-up period
with beam is required to verify the proper operation of all
equipment, including the machine protection system, with beam. The
tests required in both phases and the estimated overall time
necessary to perform these tests is described. The same estimate is
also made for the subsequent years of LHC operation.
