### Introduction

This guide provides step-by-step instructions to deploy the Sanas application on an elux OS machine.

The deployment has two stages:

- **Image file creation**: Create an image file using the ELAS platform.

- **Endpoint deployment**: Use Scout Board to deploy the image file to the intended users.

### Prerequisites

- Ensure you have received the Sanas app package for elux before proceeding further. Contact [Sanas Support](mailto:support@sanas.ai) for assistance.
  
- Sanas is currently supported on elux 7.

### Procedure

#### **Create the Sanas app image file using ELIAS**

1. Navigate to the  ELIAS container window, then click **Import**. Select the Sanas package from your machine to import.

5. Select **Firmware** under Device configuration, then click **Edit**.  Update the firmware details as shown below:
   
   - **Path**: Select the container path name where the Sanas app image file is created.

Example: The container path is App in this case.

- **Image** **file**: Select the image file we’ve created in the previous step.

8. (Optional) Uncheck the **"Inform Users"** checkbox. This avoids notifying the user about the deployment.

9. Click **Perform** to complete.

> **Note**: Ensure the system firmware is updated.

10. Once the setup is completed, the Sanas app will be available on the desktop.

11. The Sanas app is deployed on endpoint machines but is not yet accessible. Create the app following the instructions below:
