== Starting SiTech software ==
The software should be opened on lesedi-nuc, by connecting by ssh to 1ms1 and running the software using the mono librarylibraries. If in Sutherland, you can do this from the lesedi-nuc PC in the warm room, else if working remotely from Cape Town, VNC to lesedi-nuc:
1. Open Remmina Remote Desktop Client, select "VNC" from the dropdown menu and double click on Lesedi_Nuc from the list of servers. Enter the password and the lesedi-nuc desktop will be displayed on the screen.
ps aux | grep Obs
4. If any existing jobs are listed and are not open on lesedi-nuc -- and you are sure they are not in use by someone working elsewhere -- kill them all (note . Note that there will be two jobs each to kill for SiTechExe and ServoSCommunicator):
sudo kill -9 xxxx (where xxxx is the relevant process ID)
6. If you ever need to restart either ServoSCommunicator or SiTechExe, you will first need to close all the other subsystem GUIs, and reopen them in the order above.
7. If working in the dome, bundle all the GUIs onto the left-hand monitor (it makes it easier to find them if someone needs to VNC from a smaller screen) then minimise them - they won't need to be accessed during the night unless something goes wrong. If working in Cape Town, you can close the VNC session with lesedi-nuc by clicking the right-hand "Disconnect" button on the Remmina tool bar.
