== Running Cumulus MX == This section explores the optional parameters, and then covers 2 ways to run MX: ~~MX can be run directly, as described next, or run as a service, as described later.~~ # as a service and #directly with terminal window left open. ~~===Running MX directly===~~ Whilst effectively MX is run directly by '''sudo mono CumulusMX.exe''', you actually need to ensure all the other components are loaded, so you either have a package that runs it for you, or you click a shortcut that includes the necessary path setting. ~~You will find some topics in the support forum about ways to use scripts for starting/stopping MX, as alternatives to what presented on this page.~~ === Optional parameters to add to the instruction to run the MX engine === Use <tt>systemctl status cumulusmx.service</tt> in a terminal session to see status of Cumulus service === Running with a terminal session left open === This is alternative to the running as service as described above. Whichever operating system you are using, to run MX requires an instruction that changes to the directory where it is installed (the instruction below is assuming it is in the standard Pi user home directory, the change directory command will be different if you have installed it elsewhere), and then starting the executable (using mono in the instruction below that applies to any non-Windows operating system). You may wish to add [[Cumulus_MX#Optional_parameters_to_add_to_the_instruction_to_run_the_MX_engine\|Optional_parameters]].
