** It is no longer necessary to initialise the XY slides at the start of the night, only if there is a fault, in which case the "Reset" and "Initialize" buttons will turn red, and should be clicked in that order.
** The XY slides centre position is no longer (0, 0) but (7000, 55000). The new "Center" button is now used to bring the XY slides back to that position, no longer the "Initialize" button.
** A '''red marker position of (358, 340)''' is a good place to start in centring an object on SpUpNIC's slit.
** An autoguider camera focus value of 5300 is a good starting point with SpUpNIC.
** It is currently necessary to kill the guide star finderchart image display box on the TSC, before pressing "Read" to import the target coordinates from SpUpNIC in order to load the new guide star finder.
** The area within the green circle on the finderchart no longer marks the usable guide star region - guide stars within parts of the circle are accessible to the XY slides. The XY slide ranges are (0 < X < 14000, 0 < Y < 91000).
