In this example, the user will load existing a Platform/Lidar file, Atmospheric File and a Time Block File, do an edit session and save the inputs as a new Mission Scenario experiment. As shown in the figure below, highlight a Platform/Lidar file and double-click the mouse. This will cause the Platform/Lidar file header information to pop-up for the user to review. If this is the file the user wants to use, click the Use button on the pop-up window, if not choose Close. Once the file is loaded,  the user can edit the inputs.

As shown in the figure below, highlight an Atmospheric file and double-click the mouse. This will cause the Atmospheric file header information to pop-up for the user to review. If this is the file the user wants to use, click the Use button on the pop-up window, if not choose Close. Once load the user can edit the inputs.

As shown in the figure below, highlight an Time Block file and double-click the mouse. This will cause the Time Block file header information to pop-up for the user to review. If this is the file the user wants to use, click the Use button on the pop-up window, if not choose Close. Once load the user can edit the inputs.

In this example, we are going to click the Edit Platform Inputs button and switch the lidar to a coherent system to be simulated with the same satellite inputs and atmospheric inputs as the loaded direct detection mission scenario files.

Now that we have created the coherent Platform/Lidar inputs, we are going to create a new mission file by clicking the Save Experiment Inputs button as shown below.

Notice in the screen below that once the Mission Scenario has been saved, the Experiment header turns green. This tells the user that all inputs have been defined in order to run the SCVM and the LSM.

The Return to DLSM Main Page button closes the Experiment Manager and returns to the DLSM main page.
