Abstract
We present phase-resolved spectroscopic observations of IX Vel (the brighte st known novalike cataclysmic binary of UX UMa type) in the wavelength rang e 810-920 nm. We try to explain the relatively complicated shape of the obs erved emission lines in terms of the three component model of the emission from the system: disk, secondary star, "hot spot". The model reproduces the observations sufficiently well and confirms the presence of a narrow emiss ion components in CaII triplet changing radial velocity in anti-phase relat ive to the orbital motion.
