===== Update / item tracking =====
Tasks identified February 2025:
Spectrograph
- continued work on alignment, esp with "point" source
- installation of prism
- installation of camera
- installation of focuser + detector
- testing with calibration source? solar source?
Calibration channel
- assembly of relay optics / stage at focal plane
- development of calibration source : Shelyak possibility? Selectable sources by stage? Integrating sphere?
Fiber
- getting long fiber run + ferrule. All circular fiber? match 125 micron cladding or not? Fusing 50/75/125 micron cladding onto other 50 micron fiber at focal plane side? Fusing hexagonal fiber onto circular 50 micron fiber at ferrule side?
- running fiber through conduit
Spectrograph room
- legs for table
- insulating box for spectrograph
- making room in APO room
- confirming power (UPS) and Ethernet
- relay/thermocouple control/computer packaging
- location of pump
- more thermocouples for monitoring instrument
FPU box
- cover
- cabling
Dome
- lower slit control
- packaging of dome control
- spare computer and Raspberry Pi?
Software
- interfacing Aarhus with APO
