Ccd Cameras

Scientific paper

At the beginning of February 1987 a new CCD control camera has been successfully installed at the 3.6-m telescope by R. Reiß and P. Sinclaire. It will be used with all of the CCD-based instruments like CASPEC, EFOSC and the B & C spectrograph. The camera is a so-called generation V system from Princeton Scientific Instrument. It has been interfaced to the standard ESO computer in Garching in such a way that the observers will not detect any difference in the contral programme of the instruments. Notable advantages with respect to the previous system come from the use of electronic components of improved quality, such as the on-chip amplifiers and high speed 16-bit converters, shorter read-out time and a simplified pracedure in the set-up of different CCO types.
