Data Access for Windows Users

Use Map Network Drive for access to ADCP data:

click on

My Network Places
Entire Network
   Search for Computers
   (fill in): Computer name:
       currents
   doubleclick on the computer icon for "currents"

To map network drive:

right-click on "adcp_home" folder
   select Q:
   Finish
right-click on "data" folder
   select R:
   Finish
right-click on "programs" folder
   select S:
   Finish

There may be some circumstances when this does not work or you just want a temporary connection. If so, just type the following in the “location” bar of “My Computer”:

\\currents

(or under the Start Menu, select “Run” and type the same thing)

In both cases you should end up with an explorer window that has the three shared directories:

• adcp_home
• data
• programs

Using Windows Binaries

To use the Windows binaries, change your path to include the Windows binaries from “currents”:

1. go to Control Panel: System: Advanced : Environmant Variables
2. add the path to the binaries, eg S:\codas3\bin\win32 or \\currents\programs\codas3\bin\win32

Accessing Data

To get files directly from the processing directories,

1. go into \\currents\data
2. identify your cruise; go into that folder
3. go into the folder called proc
4. choose the instrument name you want (eg. os75nb)
5. find the files you are interested in (eg. contour/allbins_*)
