/* Instrument Description */
== Instrument Description ==
The "Instrument Selector" is essentially a new flip mirror that has been installed in the acquisition boxes of both SpUpNIC and HiPPO<ref>''LibreOffice For Starters22 Feb 2024: the implementation of the fold mirror in HiPPo'', First Edition, Flexible Minds, Manchester, 2002, p. 18s acquisition box has not been completed at time of writing</ref> that allows the observer to switch between two instruments, a primary and secondary where the primary instrument is either SpUpNIC or HiPPo and the secondary instrument is a new SHOC system. Below is the image showing the new SHOC system mounted to the side of SpUpNIC's acquisition box. The new SHOC system replaces the old guider box with a newly designed off-axis "pick-off" guider that allows for the mounting of a filter wheel unit and SHOC camera beind the guider.
