Camera Rotator Integration Work

The Telescope and Site team and System Integration, Test & Commissioning team from LSST, along with personnel from vendor Tekninker, have had success with early integration activities on the summit in recent weeks. The Camera Cable Wrap, the rotator, and the pointing component have been integrated together through the latest version of the Service Abstraction Layer (SAL) for testing. SAL is the intermediary between high-level software control and the hardware. The team identified minor operational restrictions, which will be addressed before the next round of testing, but in general the subsystems are working together well.
