Description
With the completion of the assembly of silicon detector modules and their
supporting structures, the focus of activity has moved to the production and
operation of large assemblies of multiple modules. This involves the physical
mounting of modules onto their supports, the connection of their services and the
subsequent testing. This paper describes the assembly and test procedures for these
complex arrays and draws conclusions on the transition from the operation of single
modules to large scale structures with in excess of 100 individual modules each.
The current status of the final testing of the barrel and endcap sections of the
detector at CERN, comprising a total of 4000 modules, is described.
