Configuring ODAS - ReSpeaker Mic Array v2.0

Hello,

I am completely new to this and have recently started using the ReSpeaker Mic Array v2.0 for a project.
I am trying to use ODAS with it and am following this tutorial

github.com

introlab/odas_web/blob/master/README.md

# ODAS Studio
A desktop user interface for the [ODAS](https://github.com/introlab/odas) library

![ODAS Studio main screen screenshot](/screenshots/main.png)

## Description
ODAS Studio is a desktop interface built to visually represents data produced by the ODAS algorithm and manage recordings of separated audio sources. ODAS Studio represents audio energy and tracked audio sources on an unit sphere and is a powerful tool when tuning ODAS settings. ODAS Studio also records separated audio as distinct wav files. ODAS Studio is built on the Electron framework and can be run natively on PC, Mac and Linux.

## Installation
1. Install Node.js v12
1. Clone the repository
1. Run _npm install_ in the cloned repository base folder (it contains _main.js_)

Please note that even if ODAS Studio can be installed on a Raspberry Pi, it will not perform properly due to CPU limitations. Please see the ODAS configuration section for instructions on how to sink data from a Pi running ODAS to another computer trough sockets.

## Usage
### Start ODAS Studio
* Run _npm start_ in the base folder

### Configure ODAS

I followed these steps

Install Node.js v12
Clone the repository
Run npm install in the cloned repository base folder (it contains main.js)
and then ran ‘npm start’
and get ODAS studio opened as seen in the screenshot below

1st question: I am not sure with the next steps ‘ODAS Studio uses TCP sockets to receive data from ODAS, thus, it is important to specify the following sinks in the ODAS configuration file.’ Where exactly (which line) should I specify the SSL, SST and SSS sockets? And do I specify them in the config or settings file?

2nd question: In the following step ‘For local execution, browse the odascore binary and the configuration file in the ODAS Control pane. A local ODAS execution can then be controlled using the green Launch ODAS button.’ I cannot find the binary file, where is it located/

Sorry for all these silly questions, but I would really appreciate your help!

Thank you
