Slit viewing

The normal method of acquisition when ISIS is being used is to view the slit, which is tilted by 7.5 degrees, and can be imaged via a one to one transfer lens and flat into the same TV camera used for direct viewing acquisition, with field sizes identical to those provided by the acquisition system.
