        ## Installation
        
        On the client 
        
        ```
        pip install pysilico
        ```
        
        
        On the server 
        
        First install Vimba (that comes with the camera, or download Vimba SDK from 
        ```
        pip install pysilico-server
        ```
        
        The pysilico-server package installs also the client package.
        
        
        
        
        ## Usage
        
        ### Starting Servers
        
        Starts the 2 servers that control one device each.
        
        ```
        pysilico_start
        ```
        
        ### Using the GUI
        
        Run `pysilico_gui`
          
        
        ### Using the client module 
        
        In a python terminal on the client computer:
        
        ```
        In [1]: import pysilico
        
        In [2]: cam1= pysilico.camera('192.168.1.18', 7100)
        
        In [3]: cam2= pysilico.camera('192.168.1.18', 7110)
        
        In [4]: frames= cam1.getFutureFrames(10)
        ```
        
        ### Stopping pysilico
        
        To kill the servers run
        
        ```
        pysilico_stop
        ```
        
        More hard:
        
        ```
        pysilico_kill_all
        ```
        
        
        
        
        ## Administration Tool
        
        For developers.
        
        
        ### Testing
        Never commit before tests are OK!
        To run the unittest and integration test suite cd in pysilico source dir
        
        ```
        python setup.py test
        ```
        
        
        ### Creating a Conda environment
        Use the Anaconda GUI or in terminal
        
        ```
        conda create --name pysilico
        ```
        
        To create an environment with a specific python version
        
        ```
        conda create --name pysilico python=2.6
        ```
        
        
        It is better to install available packages from conda instead of pip. 
        
        ```
        conda install --name pysilico matplotlib scipy ipython numpy
        ```
        
        ### Packaging and distributing
        
        See https://packaging.python.org/tutorials/distributing-packages/#
        
        To make a source distribution
        
        ```
        python setup.py sdist
        ```
        
        and the tar.gz is created in ../dist
        
        
        You can make a universal wheel 
        
        ```
        python setup.py bdist_wheel 
        ```
        
        The wheels are created in ../dist. I suppose one can delete 
        pysilico/build now and distribute the files in ../dist
        
        
        To upload on pip (but do you really want to make it public?)
        
        ```
        twine upload ../dist/*
        ```
