#First '''start the engine''' in one of the following 3 ways (there are some optional parameters that can be used with the .exe call as mentioned below):
#*If you have created a shortcut on your desktop (and/or the taskbar) for the '''CumulusMX.exe''' executable and that shortcut defines the path where the executable is located as the path to start in, then you can click the shortcut to start the engine. '''Remember, if you have not done the ''Italic text'' command mentioned above, you must run as administrator.'''
#* OR place the shortcut in the start up folder for the user account so MX automatically starts when you connect/log in.
# Next '''start the admin interface''', it does not need to run all the time, but only when you need it (when you first use MX you will need it to access the settings where you tell MX what type of station you have and what units you want to use, and set various timing options), it normally runs on port 8998 (to vary that there is a '''-port''' parameter that is followed by required port and that port parameter has to be entered every time you start MX if you are not using the default port).
