Figure caption: Model of the 4 m Mayall Telescope with the new instrumentation built for the DESI project. All of the main components are labeled and described in this paper. The major subsystems are the new, 8 deg2 corrector (see Section 3), the new top ring, vanes and cage that support the corrector (see Section 4), the FPA (see Section 5), the fiber system (see Section 6), and the spectrograph system (see Section 7). Also labeled are the Fiber View Camera (see Section 5.8) and the calibration lamp system (see Section 7.6). The 10 spectrographs are located in a thermally controlled environment called the “Shack” (see Section 7.5) that was custom built in the Large Coudé Room of the Mayall building.
