* The SpUpNIC Control interface has a number of tabs:
** The Main View tab, in which you'll spend most of your time.
** The Advanced tab, which may be used if things go wrong.
** The Engineering View tab, which displays various diagnostic settings.
** The Config tab, which you should not need for the most part.
 
* The panel on the right is an interactive schematic of the instrument. Components with in/out or on/off states can be toggled by clicking on the relevant part of the image. The light path is shown in red so that one can easily verify the instrument configuration.
==SpUpNIC User Interfaces==
Normal operations are performed in the "Main View" tab of the SpUpNIC Control interface. On the right-hand-side is a graphical representation of the instrument, which shows the light path through the various components controlled by the GUI. You can click on the guide mirror, arc mirror, rear-of-slit mirror and Hartmann shutters to move them in and out of the beam, and on the arc lamps and slit illumination to switch them on and off. A blue border surrounding the graphic indicates that the spectrograph is configured for acquisition or calibration, i.e. some component is in the beam that would obstruct its path to the science detector. If the system is correctly set up for a science exposure, there will be no coloured frame and the red light-path will go through to the detector.
