# Installation

Install ace\_squadlinkV2 on your server.

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

### Place the resource

Copy `ace_squadlinkV2` into your `resources` directory.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Add it to `server.cfg`

{% code title="server.cfg" %}

```properties
ensure ace_squadlinkV2
```

{% endcode %}
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Review the config

Open `config.lua` and set the default device style, position and frequency. See [Configuration](/docs/tactical-and-military/squad-link-v2/configuration.md).
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Restart the server

New players get `DefaultFrequency`, or a random frequency if `RandomFirstTimeFreq = true`.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
The resource streams a texture dictionary named **`minimap.ytd`**. If another resource on your server also streams a `minimap.ytd`, the two will conflict and only one version loads.
{% endhint %}
