-**On the GUI select Save As and select a location for the log file to be saved. I simply make a directory ($>mkdir ~/daq/rce/Logs) and choose this location. The Config Root Dir should be set and then left alone once everything has been initialized (I set it to /root/pixelrce/rce). The Data Dir should be set to /root/calibData by default which is preferred. Select a Run Number which by default will automatically increment, and set a Scan Type. For this demonstration choose THRESHOLD_SCAN. On the next tab "Config HalfStave A" make sure only as many front end windows as you want are selected as "Valid" and "Included". For this example there is only one. Select Inlink and Outlink equal to 1 and rce equal to 0 (or whatever configuration is setup in /etc/hosts).  Last and most important, select the configuration file by clicking the CHOOSE button. The default file can be found in moduleconfigs/fei4bexample/configs/. Returning to the "Scan" tab you may click Start Run.**+**On the GUI select Save As and select a location for the log file to be saved.

The default file (94-22-04_25__cern__6999.cfg) can be found in moduleconfigs/fei4bexample/configs/. Be sure the Address parameter (see below) is set appropriately. Returning to the "Scan" tab you may click Start Run.**

 +The default configuration file, (94-22-04_25__cern__6999.cfg) is not setup for the chip geometry currently at ANL-ASC (02-06-2016). To fix this open the file and edit the 'Address' parameter from 7 to 8. Save this altered file with a new name, (ex: default.cfg). 
 + 
 +To communicate with the rce you may need to add a line into the /etc/hosts file. Add the line: "192.168.3._ rce0" where the last digit is the one corresponding to your device (check arp -a) to this file.
