Spectra are presented for the cataclysmic varible IP Peg for the period while the system was reaching the peak of an outburst. The average characteristics of the spectra are discussed and the orbital parameters are solved using the emission line profiles. The line profile evolution during and outside of the eclipse is examined and changes in the intensity of the continuum and the emission lines are studied as a function of phase. Also, the emission from the red dwarf secondary is discussed. 21 refs.
