The project goal was to develop, commission and operate a complete beam diagnostics system to fully characterize the compact medical linear electron accelerators. An overview of the whole system including the beam diagnostics, linear accelerator and control and supply unit is given. The system was successfully commissioned in July 2013. We report on initial experiences and first experimental results on current measurements, transverse beam size, transverse emittance and momentum and momentum distribution gained during the commissioning phase.
