The efficiency curves for FOS-I and FOS-II are plotted as a function of wavelength in Figures and respectively. The peak efficiency of FOS-1 in first order is 76 per cent, and for FOS-2 is about 70 per cent.

The efficiency of the total system (atmosphere, telescope and FOS with the extended blue response CCD) derived from observations of flux standards under photometric conditions is 12.5% for FOS-1, and 17% for FOS-2, at 7000Å, measured at the zenith.
The AB magnitude for 1 photon/s/Å/ at the zenith is given in Tables and in Appendix .
