| الوصف: | The 7-Dimensional Telescope (7DT) is a multi-telescope system designed to identify electromagnetic (EM) counterparts of gravitational-wave (GW) sources. Consisting of 20 50-cm telescopes along with 40 medium-band filters of 25 nm width, 7DT can obtain spectral mapping images for a large field of view (~1.25 square degrees). Along with flexible operation, real-time data reduction, and analysis, the 7DT's spectral mapping capability enables 7DT to follow up GW events quickly and discover EM counterparts. Among 20 planned telescopes, 12 units are deployed at the El Sauce Observatory located at Rio Hurtado Valley in Chile. Since we obtained the first light of 7DT in October 2023, we started its commissioning procedures including examination of bias levels, master flat production, and spectrophotometric standardization. In this talk, we present 7DT instruments and their set-up, commissioning procedures, and data characteristics of 7DT along with our three-layered surveys which are assumed to be initiated in early 2024.
