Optical elements, Fibers, Calibration unit

A new fiber unit has been ordered. The plan is to test the fibers at ESO before the unit is brought to the NOT. All pieces (small mirrors, micro lenses) needed have been acquired.

The front lens of the camera is being coated by a company in Denmark using a cold coating to avoid risks of breaking the lens. The front window of the CCD camera was send to the same company and, together with some other items, is being coated by normal procedures.

A new design for the ADC unit was made and checked for vignetting.
