52X0.1 Aperture

Description

This slit is supported with use of first-order and medium-resolution echelle gratings. This aperture is the 2 pixel-wide slit in the dispersion direction for the CCD first-order modes. 

Special Considerations

Observations with this slit require a PEAKUP prior to science observations.
