Launching an app on iOS hardware through appium

I’m trying to launch an in built iPhone/iPad app through appium. I’ve given the device UDID, bundle id of the source code. The “Enable UI Automation” option is also enabled in my iPhone/iPad. What other settings are required to launch an app through appium server?

Environment:
iOS-8.1.2
appium: 1.4.13
Xcode: 7.0.1
OS: OSX

@lostinhogwarts, Go to Xcode _>Open Developer Tools->Instruments->Choose Profiling template(select iOS device, Which you want to inspect)->Choose Automation->Click Choose button->Go to Appium and launch the server.

I don’t see an option “instruments” under preference. I tried manually launching the instruments app as well. @Selvi_Ranganathan
