Measurements Optical axis : Hartmann test Tube center: Laser zenith plummet & pin-hole During the measurements Displacement(9mm) between the primary mirror center and the optical axis was found. It was fixed by shifting the mirror cell with respect to the telescope tube center. Adjustment Status Shift < 0.4 mm, Tilt < 0.02 deg. Commissioning will start in next spring. 2014/01/14G.W. 2nd TITech14
