This paper describes the first vertical electron cyclotron emission measurement of non-thermal electron distributions in the Tokamak à Configuration Variable. These measurements were conducted in runaway electron scenarios and in the presence of electron cyclotron current drive. Measured intensities of linearly polarized X- and O-mode radiation from fast electrons allow the analysis of the energy distribution. The measurements were made possible through the creation of an operational regime for the diagnostic that is free of thermal background radiation, in relaxed electron density operations. This operational regime notably enables the cross-calibration of the diagnostic system, relying on thermal plasma measurements and modeling with the ray-tracing code SPECE.
