# Software Overview
Before you start printing with NOVA, it helps to get familiar with the Software. This section includes guides for using NOVAs software.
### Top Bar
* **Home the system (Alt + H)**: Moves the gantry to the 0,0 position (back right of the system)
* **Resets the gantry and relieves dispensing pressure (Alt + R)**: This restarts the gantry and relieves dispensing pressure to help stop a bad print quickly.
* **Meet with us**: Have a great idea or want to chat with an expert? Fill out the form and we'll find a time to talk!
* **Configure your settings**: Check the print settings for your active material. If not in a dispense workflow, it does nothing.
### Workflow Tiles
* **Dispense**: If you already have settings for your material, you can use them any time you want to print a design using this workflow.
* **Materials**: The Materials tile has two options
* *Explore*: Look through official materials that Voltera has uploaded profiles for.
* *Library*: Browse, add, modify, or delete profiles on your system.
* **Calibrate**: This workflow is for when you need to figure out settings to dispense some new material, or to dispense with a different nozzle size.
### Bottom Left Options
* **Account Login**: Log in or out of your account.
* **Network Settings**: Check and adjust your internet connection status.
* **Camera**: Open a live feed of the camera with advanced functions, including measuring the scaling to give you a correct pixel-to-µm ratio, changing the LED colors, and more.
* **Gantry Settings**: A dashboard for NOVA's gantry to adjust settings, mainly used during troubleshooting.
* **Hardware Attachments**: Shows you what modules are connected, their status, and module specific settings.
### Bottom Right Options
* **Restart App**: This button will restart NOVA's brain.
* **Chat with support**: Click the green bubble to start a live chat with Voltera Support.
* **Release Notes**: Clicking on the software version number will show you all the features from the latest software release.
* **Machine name**: This is your NOVA unit's unique identifier.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.
## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:
```
GET https://docs.voltera.io/docs/nova/learn-nova/software-overview.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
