# Testing a New System

To successfully setup and test your new system at your company, please follow the steps outlined below:

1. Create a [new hardware](https://documentation.movatic.co/admin-site/modes/add-a-new-hardware) for your system based on its specific type.
   * Ensure that all required [assignments](https://documentation.movatic.co/admin-site/modes/assignments) are accurately made.
2. Generate a free [membership](https://documentation.movatic.co/admin-site/memberships) for the system. By default, new systems operate in demo mode and require memberships. You can identify if your system is in demo mode by checking the settings, where you will encounter the following warning message: *"This system is a demo system and is not visible without a membership. Please contact your setup partner to activate this system."*<br>

4. If you haven't already done so, [register](https://documentation.movatic.co/movatic-app/user-account/account-setup) for the [Movatic mobile app](https://documentation.movatic.co/movatic-app).
5. Once you have logged into the app, [add the new membership](https://documentation.movatic.co/movatic-app/user-membership-on-users-page) to your account.
6. Attempt to initiate a [new rental ](https://documentation.movatic.co/movatic-app/rentals/first-rental)to test the functionality of the system.

By following these steps, you will be able to add resources to your new system and perform a comprehensive test to ensure everything functions as expected.
