==== Assembling the filter wheel and the OAG ====

The goal of this task is to mount or dismount the filter wheel and the off-axis guider (OAG) to the CCD. The procedure in short:

  - to open the camera, loose the screws from the cover, see Figure 1. 
  - open the case of the filter wheel and mount the backplate of the filter wheel (along with the mechanics and the electronics) to the CCD, see Figure 2.
  - insert the individual filters and the spacer rings in the filter holder and mount the cover panel on top, see Figure 3. and 4.
  - attach the filter holder to the backplate of the filter wheel (be careful with the sensor for the filter position), see Figure 2. and 4. 
  - screw the cover of the filter wheel to the backplate of the filter wheel, see Figure 5.
  - attach the OAG to the filter wheel, see Figure 6.
  - adjust the mirror of the OAG (the mirror is kept in place by means of a small lateral screw), see Figure 6.
  - attach the top cover and the T2 adapter to the OAG, see Figure 7.
  - connect the cable of the filter wheel to the STF-8300, see Figure 8.
  - fit the ST-i in the OAG, see Figure 9.
  - READY :-)

===== ST-8/7 =====

==== Assembling the filter wheel ====

The goal of this task is to mount or dismount the filter wheel to the ST-7 of ST-8. The operation is demonstrated by the following pictures of the ST-8. The procedure in short:

  - open the camera by loosing the screws from the cover, see Figure 1. 
  - open the case of the filter wheel and mount the empty cover of the filter wheel to the CCD, see Figure 2.
  - now attach the filter wheel and the case of the adaptive optics module (AO), see Figure 3.
  - attach the deflecting mirror and AO, see Figure 4. 
  - connect the cables for: 
    * the AO control (flat ribbon cable)
    * the power supply  
  - READY :-)
