Popis:	We present a report on a laser calibration system of DELTA spectrometer that has been designed and developed in the Laboratory of High Energies, JINR, Dubna. The system is intended for monitoring and continuous stabilization of the outputs of the detectors of the spectrometer. The UV nitrogen pulse laser along with optical filters, collection of optical fibers and plastic scintillators serving for conversion of UV light pulses to longer wavelength and for diffusion of the light beam to illuminate 300 photomultipliers are used. We stabilize the positions of laser peaks by corrections of high voltages of the corresponding photomultipliers. The proposed system allows one to accomplish the stabilization during the experiment with the use of the same electronics. The control software together with the first results from test runs are described as well.
