1. copy control files to new directory (make it default):

mkdir control.yg-9.11.19
cp -rp control/* control.yg-9.11.19/
ln -sfn control.yg-9.11.19 control

2. unpack new version (as a root)

tar xzpvf fs-9.11.19.tgz
ln -sfn fs-9.11.19 fs

3. Build fs (as prog)

cd fs
make

Note: Ran without any error

4. Re-built ST

cd /usr2/st/
make rmdoto rmexe all

5. Recompile eremotectrl (as a root):

cd /usr2/eromtectrl/make
make clean
make build
make install

6. Reboot

7. See the latest updates in the control files and compare them with current ones at the station. The new default control files can be found in the fs-9.11.19/st.default/control/ directory. Then update the settings of the antenna with the new 'fancy' options.

Summary of files that have to be adapted.

nano /usr2/control/equip.ctl
nano /usr2/control/fila10g_cfg.ctl
nano /usr2/control/skedf.ctl

8. Reverted to DBBC v104_2 and mark5B to ensure reliability.In equip.ctl, changed “dbbc_ddc/fila10g” to “dbbc_ddc”, “flexbuff” to “mk5b_bs”, “v106” to “v104”. Reverted mk5ad.ctl to point to mk5yg.phys.utas.edu.au
