• Done by vendor at vendor facility.
– Align components and single elements to the optical bench.
– Align optical bench to the telescope.
• Done by Gemini on the telescope at Gemini south.
• Final Alignment (optimize image)
– Wave front analysis using source simulators and wave front
sensors.
– Image analysis using stars and science detector.

Error Budget points of interest
MCAO
•Most areas meet goals. All goals are met at the zenith
position.
•Flexure at 45º and 60º are about 50% over the goals. This
suggests special design effort at a few areas.
•Science path tip/tilt errors must be carefully calibrated out.
•Within goals for:
•LGS pupil displacement (input to simulations)
•LGS WFS boresight errors (input to simulations)
•LGS RMS pupil distortion (input to simulations)
•RMS wave front errors in LGS and NGS paths
•DM adjustments
