NIDAS is an acronym for Networked Information Display & Automation Software. It's an OpenComputers HUD program written by Sampsa, capable of running in-game as a control for power networks, fluid/power monitoring, ore processing, notification of [[Maintenance]] issues, AE2 auto-stocking and infusion automation. The source code for NIDAS can be found on [https://github.com/S4mpsa/NIDAS GitHub], and its documentation can be found [https://github.com/S4mpsa/NIDAS/wiki here]. Progress into late [[HV]]-[[tier]], preferably [[EV]], is required to setup NIDAS as T3 components use Titanium. |

NIDAS requires a top end OpenComputers computer or server to run, with the specs listed below. It can also be configured as a main/local server setup with multiple machines for larger bases. In that case only the local devices will need component busses. |
|||
* You need to be at least in late [[HV]]-[[tier]], preferably [[EV]], to get started with NIDAS due to needing Titanium. |

** Central Processing Unit (CPU) (Tier 3) |
|||
* Get an OpenComputer Case T3 and equip it with a T3 CPU, T3 GPU, at least 1 stick of T3.5 RAM, an internet card, a T2 wireless network card, at least a T2 hard disk drive, etc. Not sure how? |
