The second Hispano-Argentinian Meridian Catalogue (HAMC2) contains more than 12.500.000 positions and magnitudes of stars brighter than V=16.5 and with declinations between -30° and 0°. It has been computed from the CCD observations of the San Fernando Automatic Meridian Circle (CMASF) installed at present at the Carlos U. Cesco Observatory (CUC) in San Juan (Argentina). The CMASF is operated jointly by the Real Instituto y Observatorio de la Armada (ROA) of Spain, owner of the instrument, and the Observatorio Astronómico Félix Aguilar (OAFA) of the Universidad Nacional de San Juan (Argentina), owner of the CUC. The catalogue will be published in the first half of 2008. In this paper we present the work carried out to implement the HAMC2, the CCD camera sensor calibration and finally the comparison of its astrometric and photometric results with other modern CCD catalogues in order to detect and to remove possible systematic errors.
