Start a Volt

A Volt4 can be started using either the command-line interface (CLI) or the fusebox.

cli

Use the run cli command:

Terminal window
volt run --help

The most simple way to start a Volt4 is using the id:

Terminal window
volt run did:volt:449a3385-f380-41f7-bd0a-e60caaa403cb

If the Volt4 has been given an alias you can use this instead of the GUID:

Terminal window
volt run @alice

If the Volt4 is secure you will also need to specify the passphrase, using the -p switch:

Terminal window
volt run did:volt:449a3385-f380-41f7-bd0a-e60caaa403cb -p foobar

To avoid specifying the passphrase on the command line, you can force a prompt using -p .:

Terminal window
volt run did:volt:449a3385-f380-41f7-bd0a-e60caaa403cb -p .

See the CLI section for more details about starting a Volt4.

fusebox

The fusebox can be used to run local Volt4s.

Simply click on the name of the Volt4 in the slide-out menu panel on the left-hand side:

fusebox-start
