6.1 Running ALF

To start ALF, nodeBooter must be started as usual. In one tab or terminal type:

 $ nodeBooter -D -d nodes/default_GPP_node/DeviceManager.dcd.xml

default_GPP_node can be changed if your waveform requires it.

Once nodeBooter is running, open a second tab or terminal, navigate to the alf directory and start ALF:

 $ cd /sdr/tools/alf
 $ python ALF.py

This should open the ALF main window without errors or warnings.
