[Optional] Before doing this, save the conf.yml file you are using, if you don't already have it saved. You can use the following command in a terminal window:

scp pi@<your-IP-address>:/home/pi/evolver/evolver/conf.yml

  1. In a terminal, navigate to the folder in the server files containing the conf.yml file you want to change to

    1. For example if you want to change to the stir pause conf.yml:

      1. cd <your-directory>/evolver/alternate_conf_files/stir_pause_for_OD_reads

For example if you want to change to the default conf.yml:

  1. cd <your-directory>/evolver/

  • Copy over your new conf.yml file (overwriting the old one)

    1. Input the following command:

      1. scp conf.yml pi@<your-IP-address>:/home/pi/evolver/evolver/

    2. Input your eVOLVER server's password

  • Restart your eVOLVER server

    1. Input the following command (replaced with your eVOLVER's IP)

      1. ssh pi@<your-IP-address>

    2. Input your eVOLVER server's password

    3. Input the following commands to restart the server

      1. sudo supervisorctl

      2. restart evolver

  • Check the server log files to see that it is cycling properly
