 in the name of your session.    If necessary, you can modify this base path. 






 OR 


 *    Leginon Setup Wizard> Select a previous session you have created using the same

 running the main Leginon process does not need to be included in this list.

 have the name show up in the selection window is not enough!

 before finishing the wizard. The host on which you are running the main Leginon process 
 does not need to have a Leginon Client started. 


 *    Choose "Finish" in the set up wizard to start the session.
