ZACA MASTERNODE SETUP GUIDE

Setting up a masternode for the ZACA Framework is straightforward. However, a few steps have to be followed in order to make it work smoothly.

​

Prerequisites:

- min. 7500 ZACA

- ZACA COIN Windows

- White static IP with open ports for masternodes

 

PREPARING CONTROLLER WALLET

​

1 - Open your main wallet where you have your coins

2 - Go to File >> Receiving Addresses

3 - Press button "New" and enter "Masternode 1" in Label, followed by “OK”.

4 - Send exactly 7500 ZACA to this address

5 - Wait for 30 confirmations of the transaction and go to Tools >> Debug Console

6 - Run command "masternode genkey" and copy down generated key (this is your masternode private key)

7 - Run command "masternode outputs" and copy down hexnumbers (this is your masternode tx) and digit after ":" (this is tx index)

8 - Go to Tools >> Open Masternode Configuration File (masternode.conf), and open with Notepad.

9 - Using (one line per masternode), use the following format:

 

Alias IP:Port Privkey TxHash OutputIndex

​

10 – As "Alias", enter "MN1" (do not use spaces and special characters)

11 – As "IP:Port", enter "YOUREXTERNALIP:PORT" (your external white IP and port for masternode), such as 123.456.789:48882 12 – As "Privkey", enter the masternode private key you generated with "masternode genkey"

13 – As "TxHash", enter the masternode tx from "masternode outputs" command

14 – As "OutputIndex", enter the tx index from "masternode outputs" command

15 - Now you can File >> Save and exit out.

16 - Press "Update Status" and you will see the masternode in list with status "Not in the masternode list."

 

CONFIGURING MASTERNODE

​

1 - Go to %appdata% folder

2 - Open "zaca.conf" in Notepad

3 - Type there: port=PORT masternode=1 masternodeaddr=IP:PORT masternodeprivkey=PRIVKEY

​

File should look like this:

​

rpcuser=ZacaRPCUser
rpcpassword=<ANY LONG RANDOM STRING>
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
listen=1
server=1
daemon=1
staking=1
logtimestamps=1

​

port=<PORT>
masternode=1
masternodeaddr=<IP>:<PORT>
masternodeprivkey=<PRIVKEY

​

4 - Replace PORT with the port used for your Masternode 1, IP:PORT with your external white IP and the same port for your Masternode 1

5 - Replace PRIVKEY with the masternode private key you generated with "masternode genkey" in controller wallet for Masternode 1

​

STARTING MASTERNODE

​
