The standard injection scheme of SOLEIL is made of 2 septa and 4 kicker magnets installed in a 12 m long straight section. Tuning the 4 kickers, to reduce perturbations, revealed to be almost impossible since it requires having 4 identical magnets, electronics, and Ti coated ceramic chambers. To reach the position stability requirement of the stored beam, a single pulsed magnet with no field on the stored beam path can replace the 4 kickers. Such a device, called MIK (Multipole Injection Kicker), was developed by SOLEIL and successfully commissioned in the MAX-IV 3-GeV ring as the key device used in the standard injection scheme for user operation, reducing the beam orbit distortion below 1 micron in peak value in both planes. A copy of the MIK has been installed in a short straight section of the SOLEIL storage ring, in January 2021. We report MIK positioning studies, the constraints of the project, sapphire chamber coating challenges and the first commissioning results. The R&D MIK is a demonstrator for the injection scheme of SOLEIL upgrade as well.}}, }
