-    * While it is not possible to use TAO over the solar limb (or for neighboring prominences), in 2026 tests have been carried to observe prominences with the AO was focused on granulation in an offset disc region of THEMIS FOV. EVen though the TAO isoplanatic region is located far from the targeted prominence, TAO nonetheless provided significant improvements as shown in the [[science:imofmonth#August 2025|August THEMIS image of the month]].+    * While it is not possible to use TAO over the solar limb (or for neighboring prominences), during the 2025 campaign, tests have been carried to observe prominences while TAO was focused on granulation in an offset disc region of THEMIS FOV. Even though the TAO isoplanatic region is located far from the targeted prominence, TAO nonetheless provided significant improvementsas shown in the [[science:imofmonth#August 2025|August THEMIS image of the month]].

 In this mode, up to 4 (old) EMCCD Andor iXon camera (512x512) and up to 2 (new) Andor Zyla (2kx2k) cameras are available. Both 6 cameras can be setup and used at the same time (with their respective specs),  in accordance with the SP2 output physical limitations.   In this mode, up to 4 (old) EMCCD Andor iXon camera (512x512) and up to 2 (new) Andor Zyla (2kx2k) cameras are available.
