To run the max executable you need to go to the unzipped folder and run `chmod +x` on the .app file. You will also probably have a security issue because the app is unsigned. Go to Systems Preferences > Security & Privacy > General and allow the file to "run anyway".

### Using coordinates for surgery

To use your coordinates for a surgery, rotate the manipulator to match the azimuth angle and set the probe elevation angle. Then move your probe tip (the left-most probe tip on a 2.4 when facing upwards) to Bregma and zero your manipulator. Move the probe along its forward and side axes according to the exported coordinates (or along AP/ML if you kept azimuth at 0). Assuming you exported your coordinates starting at the brain surface, drive the probe forward until the tip touches the brain, zero the depth axis, and continue forward until you reach the pre-specified depth.

Then move your probe tip (the left-most probe tip on a 2.4 when facing upwards) to Bregma and zero your manipulator. Move the probe along its forward and side axes according to the exported coordinates (or along AP/ML if you kept azimuth at a multiple of 90 degrees). Assuming you exported your coordinates starting at the brain surface, drive the probe forward until the tip touches the brain, zero the depth axis, and continue forward until you reach the pre-specified depth.
