Abstract
The setup of two different small scale teststands for measurements regarding an electron Cherenkov detector as part of the ILC polarimeters is presented. Component measurements already carried out are analyzed and others, foreseen for the near future, are discussed. The larger one of the two teststands features the old Cherenkov detector of the SLD experiment, which will be used as a reference for a number of crucial measurements. Especially, the requirements for the non-linearity of the read-out chain are studied in greater detail and methods for its precise measurement before and during operation are being developed accordingly.
