Hi
I tried the link and it works well. Make sure you dont use decimal places in your specs

It looks like the mask is acting as a diffraction grating that splits the white light into its Blue, Green and Red components, presumably generating mono chromatic diffraction rings located at the points indicated by the respective coloured arcs.
Remember, whilst this particular mask was designed with the formula of Focal Length (=2160mm)/180, resulting in a Bar Width=6mm and Bar Gap=6mm, the image was captured at x3 the focal length, 6480mm.
