- # Click on the runODC check-box; ODC should start. BEFORE using ODC, do
- step 8.
- # Close the actor's configure parameters box by clicking Commit or Cancel.
- __(ODC GUI will NOT respond until this is done).__
- # Select a dataset in the ODC. This can be done by clicking on one of
- the folders and double-clicking on one of its files. This should take
- you to the Retrieve pane/tab. In the middle-pane, double-click on a
- dataset and the fields should appear in the "Additional Criteria" pane
- on the right. Select some of the fields by clicking in the check boxes.
- ** Some datasets that work:
- {{{
- Antarctic Cooperative Research Centre, Tasmanian...
- Digital Library for Oceans and Climate
- ***** TPAC/CSIRO Climatologies
-
- *** US GODAE - Global Ocean Data Assimilation Experiment (USGODAE)
- **** NOGAPS Computational Grids
- # Change pull-down next to "Output to" button
- ** (bottom right) to Kepler, and click "Output to" button.
- # Close ODC, then Opendap actor will reconfigure output ports to match
- constraints set in ODC.
