'''In the Warm Room:'''
Install the computer systems as per Fig. 7 below.
* Fire up the TCS software and check functionality as follows:
# Check that the XY slide initializes correctly (reset button on the emergency stop box on the north pier)
# Lodestar Acquisition CCD camera operational – start exposures, check the readout occurs properly. (Note that the regular control box for the acquisition mirror is empty since it is not present.)
* On the SpUpNIC computer:
# Ensure that the SpUpNIC fibre is plugged in. When the fibre is correctly connected AND BOTH the computer and CCD controller are powered up, a green LED is ON on the interface (Fig 8).
# Ensure the dual monitors, keyboard & mouse are connected.
# Ensure the LAN cable and RS232 connector (to the PLC) are connected (Fig. 8).
* Check that the Lodestar industrial PC is installed (Fig. 7).
* At the back of the TCS-rack:
# check that the RS232 PLC cable is connected to the fibre, and the channel selector switch is correctly set (Fig 9, bottom insert box).
# check that the USB connection to the Lodestar rear-of-slit camera is plugged in to the USB-to-fibre convertor (Fig. 9, top insert box).
# check that the USB connection to the Lodestar acquisition camera is plugged in to the USB-to-fibre convertor, located on the right-hand side of the rear-of-slit camera fibre convertor.
1. Fire up the TCS software and check functionality as follows:
a. Check that the XY slide initializes correctly (reset button on the emergency stop box on the north pier)
b. Lodestar Acquisition CCD camera operational – start exposures, check the readout occurs properly. (Note that the regular control box for the acquisition mirror is empty since it is not present.)
2. On the SpUpNIC computer:
a. Ensure that the SpUpNIC fibre is plugged in. When the fibre is correctly connected AND BOTH the computer and CCD controller are powered up, a green LED is ON on the interface (Fig 8).
b. Ensure the dual monitors, keyboard & mouse are connected.
c. Ensure the LAN cable and RS232 connector (to the PLC) are connected (Fig. 8).
 
3. Check that the Lodestar industrial PC is installed (Fig. 7).
4. At the back of the TCS-rack:
a. check that the RS232 PLC cable is connected to the fibre, and the channel selector switch is correctly set (Fig 9, bottom insert box).
b. check that the USB connection to the Lodestar rear-of-slit camera is plugged in to the USB-to-fibre convertor (Fig. 9, top insert box).
