Ensure under the "Module Name" section that djBasis.exe, djShepherd.exe, djSharedLinkF.exe, and beacon.exe are active. Notice the names of the executables are the same as the other software tabs being used (also pictured above). For the purposes of this tutorial, also ensure that Shepherd_BEACON_OCU is selected under "Functionality."

 ==== Driving a Golf Cart with Kairos ====
 == Setup ==
+**PRIOR TO OPERATION, ENSURE THE CART BATTERY IS FULLY CHARGED.**
+Both UOMO and the golf cart use the battery stowed underneath the cart seat as their form of power. In order to avoid potential losses in connection and ensure the safety of the operator, spectators, and surrounding environment the battery must be 100% charged. Before the golf cart is powered on, ensure that UOMO correctly responds to user inputs from the gaming pedals and steering wheel. Only then, may the golf cart be turned on.
 The order of completion for setting up the hardware is arbitrary and is personal preference.
 However, all steps below must be completed:
