We have the electronics and computers setup and GISMO is on the pump. IRAM left the electronics in the cabin which gave us a head start. We also decided to put the cabling above the floor (with a good metal cover) to reduce the chances of breaking thermometry cables while fishing cables and also to make setup/teardown easier. We also cleaned up the IRIG isolation cabling and put the isolator box in the rack. The server was a little stubborn to boot but eventually gave in. The server, client, crate, IRIG, are up and running. We also made some fresh clones of the server disk and tested the backup server (booted and started GISMO software). |

GISMO final version
Same 8x16 pixels as runs 2 to 6, working at 2mm (the –3dB window is 140-162 GHz), with an individual pixel size = 0.9 Fλ.
Same special features from previous runs: Automated observing procedures usable via a dedicated GUI (see observer's manual), CRUSH reduction package, cold baffle, final position in the receiver cabin with corresponding warm optics (M5, M6)
- New cold pupil.
