(Color online) Schematic view of the \gls{ALICE} \gls{EMCal} mini-module at the \gls{PS} T10 beam line. The beam enters from the right. The Cherenkov detector was used for identification of the beam particle. The mini-module could be moved in the directions indicated by the red arrows in order to scan different towers.
