Short summary
We present the wavelength calibration of the travelling reference Brewer spectrometer of the Regional Brewer Calibration Center for Europe at PTB in Braunschweig. We compare these results to those of the standard procedure for the wavelength calibration of the Brewer. The results of the laser-based calibrations reproduce those obtained by the standard operational methodology and show that there is a underestimation of 0.8 %, due the use of the parametrized slit functions.
