== Starting SiTech software ==
The software should be opened on lesedi-nuc, by connecting by ssh to 1ms1 lesedis2 and running the software using the mono libraries. 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.
2. Look for an existing terminal on lesedi-nuc, else open a new one, and log in to 1ms1lesedis2:
ssh -Y observer@1ms1lesedis2.suth.saao.ac.za (you shouldn't need the full path from inside the network, just observer@1ms1lesedis2)
3. Check for existing instances of the software already running:
* In a new terminal, restart Lesedi's web server and backend:
ssh observer@1ms1lesedis2.suth.saao.ac.za
sudo systemctl restart lesedi
sudo systemctl restart lesedi-web
* Restart the autoguider backend software. If it's open it has probably hung and won't respond to the red EXIT button, so kill it and then restart it.
ssh observer@1ms1lesedis2.suth.saao.ac.za
ps aux | grep readPLC
kill -9 xxxxx (where xxxxx is the process ID reported from the ps aux task - kill all such processes)
