h1. Running CAMS (Tutorial) 

 This tutorial will teach you how to run the CAMS GUI with a simple scenario in simulation mode. 

 {{toc}} 

 First of all, *make sure you successfully completed the [[Installation#Developer installation process|Installation (Developer)]] tutorial*. Then, open a terminal and change the current directory to the folder where the core packages are installed. 

 


 h2. Accessing the files for Getting a simulated cloud environment 

 In order to run CAMS in fully simulated mode first we need a mesoNH file describing a synthetic atmospheric environment. 

 The computer @girofle@ at LAAS contains a disk with a mesoNH file that can be used with CAMS. You can use the command below to mount the folder: 

 <pre><code class="shell"> 
 sshfs girofle.laas.fr:/media/Nephelae-Data/data/Nephelae/ mesonh_girofle_mount/ 
 </code></pre> 

 If you are at LAAS with a ethernet connection network with a high-bandwith low-lattency you can use directly the mounted folder,  



 If not, 

  

 h2. Scenario setup 

 Scenario configuration files describe the atmospheric environment and the UAVs managed by CAMS. A valid configuration file is required to run the graphical interface server. 

 There are dedicated tutorial and reference guide wiki pages for scenario configuration, but for an initial run let's use a simple file.
