Re: [ATM] oslo edu secondary mirror data input question



Hi Michael,

Thanks again for the successful help on the data
input, may I ask a follow up question?

I am trying to view the spot diagrams over a 1 degree
field of view but the spot diagram screen shows only a
field of view of close to zero (5.72 e-05 to be
exact). I googled on the web and found a few similar
examples that worked but I couldn't see how they did
it.

I eventually want to optimize the design using
aspheric surfaces on the R1 and primary to minimize
the spot size to the edge of the field, any advice on
setting up the OSLO optimizer for aspherics would be
most appreciated.  

Thanks, 

Dave

Note: I had to tweak the file so that it would ray
trace correctly, here is what I am using right now:
