| and 12 (regular) calibration programs executed after the installation of the NICMOS Cooling System (NCS). The special calibrations on Cycle 13 were focussed on a follow up of the spectroscopic recalibration initiated in Cycle 12. This program led to the discovery of a possible count rate non-linearity, which has triggered a special program for Cycle 13 and a number of subsequent tests and calibrations during Cycle 14. At the time of writing this is a very active area of research. We also briefly comment on other calibrations defined to address other specific issues like: the autoreset test, the SPARS sequence tests, and the low-frequency flat residuals for NIC1. The calibration programs for the 2-Gyro campaigns are not included here, since they have been described elsewhere (see Sembach et al. 2006, in these proceedings). Further details and updates on specific programs can be found via the NICMOS web site. 1. | |||||||||||||
