 == Installing Broadband on CARC ==
 The users account must be configured using the CARC module system. The module systems sets up the users computing environment, including the compilers and libraries. The module system provides a lot of flexibility in building the BBP software. We have tested the broadband platform on broadband_carc using a specific module configuration using recent gnu compilers, that we describe in these installation notes.
-== Server Access ==
+These server alive options will help extend the time terminal connections will stay open, and reduce the number of times you are logged out of CARC due to inactivity.
 One your CARC login account on discovery and endeavour works, you will have access to broadband. Login through endeavour.

 To support users running broadband platform on computers where we don't have root, we recommend use of Anaconda python, so the software is managed (adding packages) without root access.

 Each Broadband Platform "simulation" is assigned a simulation ID. This ID is assigned to all the data products associated with the simulation. Sim ID and then data type is a common output file name. Seismograms are output as *.bbp files. Images are identified as *.png files.
