The design of the Advanced Stellarator Wendelstein W VII-AS is based on optimization of the vacuum magnetic field configuration. Essential features of the underlying concept are the reduction of the Pfirsch-Schlueter currents and of the neoclassical heat transport losses. This optimization in general leads to a non-axisymmetric complex magnetic field configuration, which was realized by a set of modul twisted coils. Plasma operation started in October 1988. In the first experimental campaign the experiments concentrated on ECRH alone, combination with NBI is foreseen as the next step.
