When using the eRTIS device in a synchronized network setup, the device should be configured correctly.
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
This means enabling the RTIS Client software service so it can connect to the RTIS Server of the [RTIS Network](https://cosysgit.uantwerpen.be/rtis-software/rtisnetwork/-/wikis/home).

## Starting & Enabling RTIS Client
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
The RTIS Client service is disabled by default to not interfere with other usage of the device.
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
To start the RTIS Client service run from a SSH connected terminal (learn how to connect over SSH [here](https://cosysgit.uantwerpen.be/rtis-software/ertissoftwareusageguide/-/wikis/Initial-Connection-&-Network-Setup)):
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
```bash
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
sudo systemctl start rtisclient.service
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
```
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
To make sure the RTIS Client is always enabled by default on boot, you can enable the service as well with
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
```bash
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
sudo systemctl enable rtisclient.service
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
sudo systemctl start rtisclient.service
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
```
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
## Stopping & Disabling RTIS Client
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
To stop the RTIS Client you can run
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
```bash
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
sudo systemctl stop rtisclient.service
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
```
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
If you previously enabled the RTIS Client to be enabled by default, you can stop and disable it with:
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
```bash
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
sudo systemctl stop rtisclient.service
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
sudo systemctl disable rtisclient.service
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
```
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
## Debugging RTIS Client
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
To look into potential issues with the RTIS Client you can find the logs in the `/home/cosyslab/rtis-software/rtisnetwork/Logs` folder. For live output of the RTIS Client service, you can use the following command:
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
```bash
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
sudo journalctl -f -u rtisclient.service 
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
``` |
