@@ -45,9 +45,45 @@ While not necessary, it is best to organize the analysis into distinct
 sub-directories.  We will do that for this tutorial::
 
  mkdir -p sept_opa/banks/bns sept_opa/banks/nsbh sept_opa/banks/bbh sept_opa/banks/imbh
+
+
+Making the BNS bank
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+
+Go into the bns directory and get the example configuration file from gitlab::
+
  cd sept_opa/banks/bns
+ wget https://git.ligo.org/lscsoft/gstlal/raw/master/gstlal-inspiral/share/O3/sept_opa/sbank_bns.ini
+
+You will also need an **appropriate** PSD for the data you intend to analyze.  Here is an example file, but it is important you use an appropriate one::
+
+ wget https://git.ligo.org/lscsoft/gstlal/raw/master/gstlal-inspiral/share/O3/sept_opa/H1L1V1-REFERENCE_PSD-1186624818-687900.xml.gz
+
+**NOTE you will need to modify the content for your code installation and desired parameter space - this is simply an example file.  You can see lalapps_cbc_sbank --help for more information** 
+
+Next generate the condor dag by running lalapps_cbc_sbank_pipe::
+
+ lalapps_cbc_sbank_pipe --config-file sbank_bns.ini --user-tag GSTLAL_BNS
+
+Submit it to condor::
+
+ condor_submit_dag GSTLAL_BNS.dag 
+
+You can monitor the progress by doing::
+
+ tail -f GSTLAL_BNS.dag.dagman.out
+
+
+Making the NSBH, BBH, and IMBH banks
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+
+You can repeat the above procedure for generating the NSBH, BBH and IMBH banks.  You will need to change the sbank configuration file (.ini). Examples can be found here:
