The first instruments to be commissioned are the RATCam optical CCD Camera and a prototype low dispersion integral field spectrograph. Future instrumentation will include a near infrared imaging camera (SupIrCam) and the FRODOspec dual beam, medium resolution, integral field spectrograph. On sky testing of the telescope has been carried out at the assembly factory, with first light at the facility obtained on 1st May 2001.
