Summary
October 30, 1997 1 1 System Overview The University of Hawaii (UH) QUick Infrared Camera (QUIRC) utilizes a 1024 1024 pixel HgCdTe Astronomical Wide Area Infrared Imaging (HAWAII) array produced by Rockwell ScienceCenter. This array is sensitive to radiation from 1 to 2.5 m. The reimaging optics pro...
October 30, 1997 3 2.2 Dewar Temperature The dewar now has a temperature sensor and heater. For normal operation, the temperature controllershould be used to set the detector temperature to 80.0K. If the controller is not used, drifts can occuras the telescope is moved, resulting in dark current ins...
4 QUIRC User Guide 3.1 Workstation setup The program is run from a workstation in the control room, currently io (or halley on the 88”). There is one configuration file that qcdcom reads upon startup to determine the telescope, secondary, and other information. There are four preset configuration fi...
