The wallet is the guide can be located at home or a separate secure server.To set up Masternode.

We need to add the Masternode Tab in the $Pac wallet.

Go to Paccoin Core in upper left window of desktopClick on PreferencesClick on walletClick show Masternode tabClick OK and exit wallet and restart

Click on setting then options

Click on Wallet TabSelect show Masternode tab

Click OK and exit wallet and restart

Open a text editor such as notepad or textedit, leave blank page open to store information.

Please select Tools, Debug Console then console

Create amasternode genkey. Type in masternode genkey

The Masternode genkey will appear in the console. Copy and paste it to your notepad. Make sure to label it MN1 masternode genkey for masternode 1. Keep all of your information together we will use it later on, its also nice to have in case you need to move a vps later on down the line.

Next you will need to send 500,000 Pac coins to yourself (so you generate a Masternode TXID).Click Receive on left menu on under $Pac Logo.

Type MN1 in label box.Click request payment. Copy address.

Click Send on left menu on under $Pac Logo.

Paste request address you just created. Once pasted the Label should automatically say MN1 so you know the coins are going back to your wallet and not to someone else. For a precaution you can double check the first and last few characters on the send address and receive address.

Once you have 15 conformations (check by mousing over payment in transaction window) go back to debug window type: masternode outputs

in the console and press enter.

Copy the Masternode outputs to your notepad so we can correctly format it for later use.

The code you paste will look like{

e4chhijdjjinshhjj65jdkkrjjrjjf7jjs8ejdjjkkdk :1

}

NowTo format the Masternode outputs code remove non-alphanumeric characters (brackets and colon) so it looks like this: e4chhijdjjinshhjj65jdkkrjjrjjf7jjs8ejdjjkkdk 1

Make sure to keep the space at the end between long address and last number.
