The beam commissioning of the SPring‐8 synchrotron was started in December 1996. In the first ten days, the coarse tuning of the pulse magnets for beam injection from the linac, and the excitation pattern of the dipole and the quadrupole magnets, were accomplished during energy ramping of the beam. The acceleration of the beam up to 8 GeV proceeded smoothly. From January to February 1997, the fine‐tuning of the synchrotron was continued and the operating parameters of all of the synchrotron equipment were decided.
