Such a high power requires production, efficient acceleration, and almost no-loss transport of a high current beam, thus making design and beam commissioning of this machine challenging. During the the commissioning time in 2022 a campaign for a full characterisation of the ESS Medium Beta Transport session (MEBT) was carried out. Both transverse optics and longitudinal parameters were measured and compared to simulation, amongst them: buncher cavity tunning, trasnverse emittance and initial twiss parameters. In this paper we present the results and future plans.
