-At least min prior to to the scheduled start, start the schedule with e.g. <​code>​schedule=r4447hb</​code> ​as usual. Note: do NOT specify a start line number. [[operations:​startmessage|Then send a start message to IVS]]. ​+For Hobart and Katherine, start the schedule with e.g. <​code>​schedule=r4447hb</​code>​ if there is longer than minutes until the nominal start of the schedule. For Yarragadee, ALWAYS start the schedule with <​code>​schedule=r4447yg,#​1</​code>​. This is necessary because the snp file has been edited ​to deal with the transmission stows which confuses the fs.

 +Unless: you try to start late within five minutes of the scheduled start and get errors like;  //m5 -900 no scans//;// m5 -900 not while recording or playing//;//​ m5 -900 can't get device info//. The mk5 is looking for the previous scheduled scan to checkwhich doesn'​t exist, and can'​t ​start the next scheduled scan recording. In this case start schedule with start line number ​<​code>​schedule=r4447hb,#1</​code> ​Otherwise: do NOT specify a start line number.
