The basic instructions are the same as for a TON Blockchain Full Node, as explained in the [FullNode-HOWTO](https://toncoin.org/#/howto/full-node). In fact, any Full Node will automatically work as a validator if it discovers that the public key corresponding to its private key appears as a member of the current validator set for the currently selected TON Blockchain instance. In particular, the Full Node and the Validator use the same binary file `validator-engine`, and are controlled by means of the same `validator-engine-console`.
