The coordination for the Hardware Commissioning (HC) activities will
involve the handling of a large quantity of documents (test sequences
and procedures, technical notes, schedules, test results, etc) which
must be related to both the hardware baseline databases and the
general planning files. This talk will describe the main ideas on how
all the information related to the...

The installation of the LHC control system hardware is a major step
to be completed before the start of the LHC hardware commissioning
phase. The control of the core LHC systems involved during hardware
commissioning (power converters, power interlock system, quench
protection system) requires in practice the full installation of most
of the LHC control system hardware and associated...

Applications for LHC hardware commissioning are being built as part
of the development effort put in place since 2002 for the LHC era
applications. For classic operations, like Power Converters controls,
we aim to reuse the software developed for TI8. At the same time a
huge effort is underway to introduce new industrial controls for the
supervision of several important systems like...

The presentation will cover the state of readiness of the LHC
utilities: AC distribution, cooling and ventilation, transport
(lifts), safety and access systems. The request of the survey group
for a strong overall co-ordination will be presented. A brief
overview of the commissioning tests, in particular for the cooling
and ventilation, safety and access systems will be given. The...

A description of the individual system tests and
HC tests will be given, including the equipment, manpower &
conditions required to perform the tests. Failure scenarios and their
impact will be enumerated. The overlap between RT vacuum system
installation & HC will be highlighted and the potential difficulties
explained.

The prerequisite, requirements and constraints for a sector cool-down
will be reminded. The different phases of cool-down, commissioning
and operation for magnet powering will be reviewed with particular
emphasis on what will be tested or verified for the first time (i.e.
tests which could not be performed on String 1 & 2 and tests on
equipments which are commissioned for the first...

This talk will address the current status of the controls for the
LHC, the schedule for the procurement of the tunnel electronics and
control logic, the tasks associated with both the QRL reception test
and the full LHC sector commissioning, and will give some comments on
the feasibility with respect to the official LHC schedule. The
cryogenic instrumentation and controls are...

The DFBs, DSLs and connection cryostat, once installed and connected,
form an integral part of the magnet powering scheme as well as the
cryogenic system. This is reflected in the hardware commissioning.
The test activities comprise: pressure and leak tests, high voltage
tests (warm, before and after connecting and cold), instrumentation
checks, control procedure validation...

Hardware commissioning of the magnet systems comprises the test of
its individual components as much as their interaction within the
system.
Only the latter operation shall be addressed in the Hardware
Commissioning Review. The tests of the magnets are therefore
discussed as a pre-requisite. On this basis, their initial state is
defined and shall be taken into account for the...

The basic problems in operating electrical circuits containing
superconducting elements and the essential safety issues are
recalled. There from, the relative importance of the various safety-
related components are deduced and their impact on the schedule and
operation, in case of failure, explained.

The main topic of the talk is the validation for operation of the
electrical circuits as a single system. In the light of the previous
talks and the hardware commissioning documentation, each step of the
powering tests will be revisited and their time durations justified.
Risks, failure scenarios, and foreseen fall back solutions will be
presented.
The requirements and priorities for...

The Beam Interlock System (BIS) forms the backbone of the LHC Machine
Protection System, allowing 100’s of distributed User Systems to
inhibit beam operation and request Beam Dump from all around the LHC.
he requirement for rapid response time of the BIS is coupled with
very high safety constraints, as whilst providing a secure and robust
protection. The system should not be a source...

Installation of the various accelerator equipment will begin
shortly. It is based on a very tight schedule.
In order to be ready for hardware commissioning many basic equipment
tests will have to be done during this installation period, such as
cabling, basic hardware operation and some of the power tests. Those
will all be done under the responsibility of the corresponding...
