# Controlling the Lasers in Julia
The lasers can be controlled directly via the serial port, or via wrapper functions in Julia.
1. Open a new Julia REPL by opening the terminal and typing `julia`.
2. Type `]` to enter the `pkg>` prompt, then type `activate Photoacoustic`.
3. Press backspace to exit `pkg`, then (when back at the `julia> prompt`), type `using Photoacoustic`.
4. Now, you can use Julia to turn the lasers on and off with the commands `blueOff()`, `blueOn()`, `greenOff()`, ..., and so on. The functions take no arguments.
