Spatial resolution Diffraction limit in each optical arm
FOV 60″ × 60″ (60″ diameter for polarimetry)
Cycle time 1. Up to around 60 FPS in spectroscopy mode
2. 10~20 s per spectral line and 1 × 10−3 of Icont in polarimetry
Spectral resolution Minimum of 50 000
Wavelength samples 10 per line including a nearby continuum point
Number of filters per module At least 5
