	HELIOS is the 100 MeV electron linac pre-injector of SOLEIL the new French SR facility. It has been supplied by THALES, as a turn-key system on the basis of SOLEIL APD design. The linac was commissioned in October 2005. This paper will remind the main features of the linac, especially on beam-loading compensation, and will give results obtained during the commissioning tests where a special care has been taken for emittance measurements. Specified and measured beam parameters will be compared to show the performance of the entire system.

	SOLEIL is a third generation synchrotron radiation source, under construction in France near Paris. The storage ring consists of a 357 m circumference ring, with 16 cells and 24 straight sections, out of which up to 21 will house insertion devices (ID). The optics features a low 3.7 nm.rad emittance at the 2.75 GeV operating energy, so as to provide high brilliance, from the VUV up to the hard x-ray domain. To reach a long lifetime, and beam position stabilities in the micron range, significant attention was paid at each design stage (optics, magnets, beam position monitors, vacuum and RF systems…), including on the design of the building, the construction of which is now complete. This resulted in some unprecedented approaches such as the intensive use of NEG coating vessels, or the development of a dedicated SC RF cavity and of 200 kW solid state RF amplifiers. The injector system (100 MeV Linac) and the 3 Hz full energy booster synchrotron have reached nominal operating conditions by fall 2005, while the ring commissioning should start by April 2006. Innovative ID's were designed and built so as to provide the best possible performances in a wide energy range (5 eV to 50 keV).

	The commissioning of SOLEIL's storage ring will start in April 2006. The objective is to reach, within a first phase of two months, stable beam conditions at 100 mA in the multi-bunch mode that can be used for the commissioning of the beamlines. This is a challenging objective, especially because the SOLEIL's ring is incorporating some innovative techniques such as the use of a superconducting RF cavity, NEG coating for all straight parts of the machine and new BPM electronics. Prior to the start of the commissioning, some insertion devices and most of the insertion devices low gap vacuum vessels, including 10 mm inner vertical aperture vessels for the Apple-II type, will be installed on the ring. This paper will review the performances of all these equipment in presence of the beam. The results of the first commissioning runs will be presented.
