## Configuration
-You can only set `ap_update_every=NUMBER` to `/etc/netdata/charts.d/ap.conf`, to give the data collection frequency.
-To edit this file on your system run `/etc/netdata/edit-config charts.d/ap.conf`.
+Edit the `charts.d/ap.conf` configuration file using `edit-config` from the Netdata [config
+directory](/docs/configure/nodes.md), which is typically at `/etc/netdata`.
+
+```bash
+cd /etc/netdata # Replace this path with your Netdata config directory, if different
+sudo ./edit-config charts.d/ap.conf
+```
+
+You can only set `ap_update_every=NUMBER` to change the data collection frequency.
