Assembling the filter wheel and the OAG
The goal of this task is to mount or dismount the filter wheel and the off-axis guider (OAG) to the CCD.
The procedure in short:
1.
to open the camera, loose the screws from the cover, see Figure 1.
2.
open the case of the filter wheel and mount the backplate of the filter wheel (along with the
mechanics and the electronics) to the CCD, see Figure 2.
3.
insert the individual filters and the spacer rings in the filter holder and mount the cover panel
on top, see Figure 3. and 4.
4.
attach the filter holder to the backplate of the filter wheel (be careful with the sensor for the
filter position), see Figure 2. and 4.
5.
screw the cover of the filter wheel to the backplate of the filter wheel, see Figure 5.
6.
attach the OAG to the filter wheel, see Figure 6.
7.
adjust the mirror of the OAG (the mirror is kept in place by means of a small lateral screw), see
Figure 6.
8.
attach the top cover and the T2 adapter to the OAG, see Figure 7.
9.
connect the cable of the filter wheel to the STF-8300, see Figure 8.
10.
fit the ST-i in the OAG, see Figure 9.
