The [http://shoc.saao.ac.za SHOC website] may well have more extensive detail about this instrument.
Dr. Marissa Kotze has written some [http://shoc.saao.ac.za/Pipeline/ pipeline] software which may help with reduction of SHOC data but from August 2020 due to IRAF dependency the SAAO will no longer provides provide support for this pipelinefrom August 2020 onward. Users are now encouraged to use [https://bitbucket.org/DominicBowman/tea-phot/src/master/ TEA-phot] developed by Dominic Bowman and Daniel Holdsworth. [[TEA-phot|Here]] are some installation instructions and basic "how-to" tips. Users MUST cite If you use the pipeline [https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/201935640 paper] if TEA-phot was used Phot code to produce results for any data reduction or photometrya scientific publication, we ask that you please adhere to the citation requests of the developers that are on their main repository page.

'''==Run Shocboxswitchthe shocboxswitch.sh When Shoc Is Moved Between Domes'''script when SHOC is moved between telescopes==
Run the script shocboxswitch.sh. The default option reverts to the standard mapping between shoc computers and telescopes. If the default is not chosen , you'll be prompted for the name of the telescope the shoc computer is being mounted on.
* Check the log entry to make sure the configuration was changed to the telescope you chose. In a terminal type:
 
less /var/log/shoc-camera.log
 
[[image:Camera-log.png|500px]]
 
* Check and make sure that the configuration file points to the telescope name that you chose. In a terminal type:
 
less /etc/init/shoc-camera.conf
* Take test data to make sure the data is written to '''/data/<telescope_name>/<instrument_name>/YYYY/MMDD/'''.
