(iii) Any userspecified FTP site containing maps
(iv) The Glmpc Terminal machine's local file system
When a map is loaded into the Glmpc Terminal for the first time, it will automatically
become selected (and therefore displayed). The newly loaded map will also appear
listed in the Map combobox (shown on Figure 65), which can be used to select any
previously loaded map for display. If a newly loaded map does not display, explicitly
select it from the Map combobox. Note that when Glmpc Terminal is initially installed it
already has the map named
initialworldmap
loaded and selected. However, on
subsequent launches, any previously selected map is displayed.
On launching, the Glmpc Terminal connects to a central FTP site containing several
predefined maps. Maps can then be loaded from this site by selecting Maps/Load map
from…/Central FTP Site…/<map name> from the Glmpc Terminal’s menu bar, where
any map name can be chosen from the list.
Maps can be loaded from the Dock Server machine from which Glmpc Terminal was
installed by selecting Maps/Load map from…/GMC FTP Site…/<map name> in the
same way.
Maps can also be loaded from any userspecified FTP site using the following steps:
1. Select Maps/User Specified FTP Site/User Specified FTP Site Login, from the
Glmpc Terminal’s menu bar. A login dialog (similar to that shown in Figure 66)
will appear.
2.
Enter the name, password, FTP server site and path to a
Maps
directory on the user
specified site and select Login. If login is successful, newly available maps will appear
as menu items under Maps/Load map from…/User Specified FTP Site…
3.
Select Maps/Load map from…/User Specified FTP Site…/<map name> where any map
name can be chosen from the resulting menu list.
