Action items:
- Carel will start some document for software functionality and touch base with Chris to move things forward.
- Nic/Hannah/Hitesh need to go through Iains optical design pdf and give go-ahead with design.
- LJMU will send list of peripheral components: where, what, cables etc. Kathryn wills send current cable wrap design.
- Kathryn will send slide design incorporated into their CAD, Kathryn will finalise design in next 4 weeks.
- Nic will check 300 (600, 900) um shift of dust spec effect on flat field using Iain Zemax file to verify 300um position repeatability of filter actuators is
