This summer our team visited La Palma and along with the manufacturer’s crew they successfully installed new telescope array in the second dome. The setup consists of eight fast 40cm/2.4 H400 astrographs on shared DDM500 mount. Each telescope is fitted with LRGB colour filter wheel and 50 MPix CCD camera with pixel scale of 1.28″. Adjusted array footprint gives us instantaneous field of view of ~50 square degrees.
All optics were collimated and mount performance tuned making system ready for the remote operations. Currently, we are in working hard on the final commissioning stages.
