THE SETUP PROCESS USING MENU PAGES
There are two Setup menu pages associated with this program, the Main page and the Grid page. It is important
to understand each menu item in each page in order to fully utilize this program. Each Setup page is identied by
the page tab located at the bottom of the Setup menu window. To move from one page to another, press the page
tab using the associated Function key or the mouse. There are three additional buttons located at the bottom right
of the Setup menu window: EXIT, SAVE and NEXT. EXIT returns you to the program launcher or the Windows
desktop. SAVE saves all menu page information in the Setup le that you select on the Main menu page. NEXT
brings you to the Orient Sample Grid page.
Navigation through all of the menu items is accomplished using the up and down arrow keys located on your
computer keyboard, or via a mouse.
The Main Setup Page
The main setup page contains seven menu elds all pertaining to le information required to properly
run this program.
Client-Farm-Field Menu Fields
As mentioned in the Map Manager introduction section of this user’s guide, les and data adhere to the Client/
Farm/Field pattern. The rst three menu elds relate to this pattern, allowing you to better manage and organize
your data. (Figure 45) shows the Main setup page with all menu elds selected. Once the Client-Farm-Field menu
elds are selected, the next menu eld entry is the Setup le.
Setup File Menu Field
The Setup File eld contains the name of a le that will hold all menu item entries for the two menu pages, Main
and Grid. A suggestion for naming the setup le is by the task being performed. As an example, in (Figure 45),
the task is building a sampling pattern for the Fall 1999 sampling campaign. Therefore the Setup and Output
le names are “Sample Pattern 99.d” and “Sample Pattern 99.gmf”. When adopting this naming convention, it
becomes easier to identify which Setup le was used for which task.
Background File Menu Field
The Background File menu eld should contain the data set that you want to design a sampling pattern on.
Typically this would be the boundary le (.BND) for the eld.
Output File Menu Field
The Output le is the le that will contain the sampling pattern data that you design. Typically this would be the
sample point locations and the sampling grid. The Output le must be a new le each time you build a sampling
pattern. If you enter the name of an existing le, you will not be allowed to store a sampling pattern in that le.
