	The H⁻ source and the low energy beam line will determine to a large extend the performance of Linac-4, the new machine foreseen as injector into the PS Booster. For this reason a test stand will be set up consisting of the source, Low Energy Beam Transport (LEBT), RFQ and chopper line. Up to now only the source and LEBT are installed. First measurements have been performed using a Faraday Cup to measure the total source intensity, a slit-&-grid emittance meter for transverse emittance measurements and a spectrometer for energy spread measurements. This paper discusses the results from measurements on H⁻ beams at 35kV extraction voltage as well as protons at 45 kV, showing the emittance dependence on source RF power as well as the influence of a solenoid in splitting the beam into its various constituents: protons, H0, H²⁺ and H³⁺. Energy spread measurements are also presented.
