Various more tests were made to identify the source of the noise in the ALFOSC detector. The tests included swapping the ALFOSC dewar+detector with the StanCam detector. No noise was detected in the StanCam detector, and when re-installing the ALFOSC detector the noise had disappeared. It is still not clear what the cause of the noise was, but the noise has not been seen again.
