## Open help / manual
python3 nasat_simulator.py -h
//if there is no pyhton3 available python2 works too
python2 nasat_simulator.py -h

## Prerequisites

On the Workstation:
You will need to create an aircraft first to send an associated telegram. This is how you do it:
1. Open the OperatorApplication
2. Go to ->Planning->Participants->Edit Participant and Add a new participant of Class Aircraft
3. Open a new Situation and choose Superordinate Config / Administation as exercise
4. Go to ->Planning->Participants / Aircraft->NASAT Aircrafts and Add a new aircraft
5. Make sure to set NASAT-Id to a value greater than 0
6. Go back to the Situation with the running exercise
7. Go to ->Planning->Participants / Aicraft->Assign NASAT Aircraft and Add a new one
8. Assign the participant and the aircraft you created to each other using the ComboBoxes
9. Now you can use the GUEZ NASAT Simulator


On the Server:
You need to enable the GNA Websocket interface:
1.  Open the lts-cc.conf
2.  Find the entry [GNA]
3.  Enable websockets with: useWebSocket = true
 a. If there is no [GNA] just add both lines to it
4.  Restart the Server /or the svcMeteoDataManagement

Important
The software requires the python websocket-client library
NOT THE "websockets" package!
   zypper in python3-websocket-client
