+.. _Virtual Detector Servers:
+Simulators
+===========
+
+Compilation
+-----------
+
+* Using CMake, turn on the option 
+    .. code-block:: bash  
+        
+        SLS_USE_SIMULATOR=ON
+
+* Using cmk.sh script,
+     .. code-block:: bash  
+        
+        ./cmk.sh -bsj9 # option -s is for simulator
+
+
+Binaries
+^^^^^^^^
+    .. code-block:: bash  
+
+        eigerDetectorServer_virtual
+        jungfrauDetectorServer_virtual
+        gotthardDetectorServer_virtual
+        gotthard2DetectorServer_virtual
+        mythen3DetectorServer_virtual
+        moenchDetectorServer_virtual
+        ctbDetectorServer_virtual
+
+
+Arguments
+---------
+
+The arguments are the same as the :ref:`normal server arguments<Detector Server Arguments>`.
+
+When using multiple modules, use different ports for each virtual server.
+    .. code-block:: bash  
+
+        # will start control server at port 1912 and stop server at port 1913
+        jungfrauDetectorServer --port 1912 &
+
+        # will start second control server at port 1914 and stop server at port 1915
+        jungfrauDetectorServer --port 1914 &
+
+
+Client
+------
+
+.. code-block:: bash  
+
+    # hostname should include the port (if not default)
+    sls_detector_put hostname localhost:1912+localhost:1914+
+
+    # or use virtual command, instead of hostname
+    # connects to 2 servers at localhost 
+    # (control servers: 1912, 1914; stop servers: 1913, 1915)
+    sls_detector_put virtual 2 1912 
+
+Use the same in the config file.
+Detector API has a method 'isVirtualDetectorServer' to check if on-board detector server is virtual.
+
+
+Sample Config file
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+There are sample config files for each detector in slsDetectorPackage/examples folder.
+
+For a Single Module (Basic)
+    .. code-block:: bash  
+
+        hostname localhost
+        rx_hostname localhost
+        udp_dstip auto
+
+
+For a Single Module (With Options)
+    .. code-block:: bash  
+
+        # connects to control port 1912
+        hostname localhost:1912+
+
+        # connects to receiver at ports 2012
+        rx_hostname mpc1922:2012+
+
+        # sets destination udp ports (not needed, default is 50001)
+        udp_dstport 50012
+
+        # source udp ips must be same subnet at destintaion udp ips
+        # takes the same ip as hostname
+        udp_srcip auto
+
+        # destination udp ip picked up from rx_hostname (if auto)
+        udp_dstip auto
+
+        # set file path
+        fpath /tmp
+
+For Multiple Modules
+    .. code-block:: bash  
+
+        # connects to control ports 1912, 1914 and stop ports 1913, 1915
+        virtual 2 1912
+        # or hostname localhost:1912+localhost:1914+
+
+        # increasing receiver tcp ports (multi detector command)
+        rx_tcpport 2012
+
+        # connects to reciever at port 2012 and 2013
+        rx_hostname mpc1922
+
+        # sets increasing destination udp ports
+        udp_dstport 50012
+
+        # source udp ips must be same subnet at destintaion udp ips
+        0:udp_srcip 192.168.1.112
+        1:udp_srcip 192.168.1.114
+
+        # destination udp ip picked up from rx_hostname (if auto)
+        udp_dstip auto
+
+        # set file path
+        fpath /tmp
+
+Receivers
+----------
+Same as if you would use an actual detector
+
+For a Single Module
+    .. code-block:: bash  
+
+        slsReceiver -t2012
+
+
+For Multiple Modules
+    .. code-block:: bash  
+
+        # slsMultiReceiver [starting port] [number of receivers] [print each frame header for debugging]
+        slsMultiReceiver 2012 2 0 
+
+Gui
+----
+| Same as if you would use an actual detector.
+| Compile with SLS_USE_GUI=ON in cmake or -g option in cmk.sh script.
+
+.. code-block:: bash  
+
+    slsDetectorGui
+
+Limitations
+-----------
+
+#. Data coming out of virtual server is fake. 
+
+#. A stop will stop the virtual acquisition only at the start of every new frame.
+
+#. Triggers are counted as number of virtual frames. trigger command to send a software trigger (Mythen3 & Eiger) is not implemented in virtual server.
+
+#. firmware version and serial number will give 0.
