-===Hello===
+======Starting the ASIC Chip======
+The steps necessary to launch the ASIC chip are described here.
+Starting at the HadanaPC3, connect to the DEPC002, and from there to the rio4-1:
+   agmaas@hadanapc3:~$ ssh mbsdaq@10.106.11.18
+   mbsdaq@depc002:~$ ssh rio4-1
+Now you open the folder hit_mainz/, where the folders HitDetection2Cmd/ and HitDetectionMBS/ are:
+   RIO4-1 mbsdaq > cd hit_mainz/
+In two terminals open the two new folders:
+   RIO4-1 mbsdaq > cd HitDetection2Cmd/
+   RIO4-1 mbsdaq > cd HitDetectionMBS/
+===FPGA as clock===
+Next you need to start the clock for the ASIC chip. A FPGA-board is used as the clock.
+To turn on the FPGA-board, flip the switch on the front right side of the board.
+The FPGA-board is programmed from the HadanaPC4. There will be  in the Folder /home/agmass/KCU105/lvds_clk a lvds_clk.xpr file.
+   agmaas@hadanapc4:~$ cd KCU105/
+   agmaas@hadanapc4:~ /KCU105 ls
+   agmaas@hadanapc4:~ /KCU105 cd lvds_clk
+   agmaas@hadanapc4:~ /KCU105/lvds_clk$ vivado18
+This will start the GUI to operate the FPGA. Select directly or first navigate to the lvds_clk project and open it.
+Now in the bottom left open the hardware manager and open "target" in the top middle and press auto connect.
+If the xcku040_0 shows "not connected", right click on it and choose program device and confirm with program.
+===HitDetection2Cmd===
+Now turn on the power supply for the chip.
+On the HadanaPC3 navigate to the setup_chip.txt file on the desktop and copy the first line into the terminal where you open the HitDetection2Cmd/
+   RIO4-1 mbsdaq > InitHitDet -a=8 --direct --init --peer=0f --rate=4 --scramble=1
+In the terminal in the bottom left execute the last command. This will start the GUI for the measurements:
+   mbsdaq@depc002:~/dabc/trunk$ export HTPORT=8119;
+   mbsdaq@depc002:~/dabc/trunk$ export REMNODE=rio4-1;
+   mbsdaq@depc002:~/dabc/trunk$ ${DABCSYS}/bin/dabc_exe ${DABCSYS}/plugins/mbs/app/web-mbs-gui-remote.xml
+The link will be found here:
+http://10.106.11.18:8119/MBS/rio4-1/ControlGUI/
+===HitDetectionMBS===
+In the terminal where HitDetectionMBS/ was opened, we perform a reset and wait 3 seconds for a second reset. After that we connect with the GUI and then start the data acquisition:
+   RIO4-1 mbsdaq > resl
+   (3sec.)
+   RIO4-1 mbsdaq > resl
+   ...
+   RIO4-1 mbsdaq > mbs -dabc
+   ...
+   @startup
+To see the raw data, execute the command:
+   ty ev -v
