| Detector: | 2048 x 2048 pix, e2v back-illuminated CCD 42-40 | |
| Pixel scale: | 0.08 arcsec/pix unbinned | |
| Field-of-view: | 2.7 x 2.7 arcmin | |
| Dark current: | 0.55 e-/s/pix at -20 C | |
| Electronics gain: | 1.26 e-/DN | |
| Read-noise: | 9.5 e- | |
| Saturation: | 65,536 counts, or 82,500 e- | |
| Linearity: | XXXX | |
| Binning: | Default binning is 2x2, unless requested otherwise. | |
| Pre-flash: | Pre-flash is required to minimize image persistence. Can be disabled for a rapid time-series. | |
| Overhead: | 14 sec binned 2x2 with pre-flash; 7 sec without pre-flash. | |
| Cooling: | Thermal electric cooler stabilizes at -20 C in 30 min. | |
| Filters: | u (data), g (data), r (data), i (data), | There is no z-band. IR LEDs on the Hecto robots produce an overwhelming z-band background. |
| Shutter correction: | Shutter correction is required for short <10 sec exposures. | |
