| 2 =========================== | 2 =========================== |

| 4 The SCC database contains all the information needed to complete the handbook of instruments. We hope | |
| 5 that this method of updating system information will be more efficient than exchanging traditional excel files. | |
| 6 | |
| 7 Describing your systems | |
| 8 ----------------------- | |
| 9 Unfortunately, the SCC does not contain the concept of a system, but only of System Configuration. | |
| 10 This means that a station can have a single physical system, but use several configuration in the database | |
| 11 (daytime channels, Raman channels, etc).For example, the Alomar station, could have three system configuration | |
| 12 but only one system, the "ALOMAR Troposphere Lidar". | |
| 13 | |
| 14 To construct the HOI we groupd different configurations based on the **name** of the system. In the previous example, | |
| 15 we need to combine all three configuration of ALOMAR in one system. To do this: | |
| 16 | |
| 17 1. Group all system configurations with the same name as one system. | |
| 18 2. Get all distinct channels connected with any of these systems. | |
| 19 3. Get all lasers, telescopes, and emission lines for all channels. | |
| 20 4. Show all of these to the HOI as one system. | |
| 21 | |
| 22 Excluding system configurations or channels | |
| 23 ------------------------------------------- | |
| 24 It is possible that you create some system configuration or channel just for testing purposes. It is possible | |
| 25 to exclude these from the handbook of instruments. To do this: | |
| 26 | |
| 27 1. Login to the admin section. | |
| 28 2. Go to the page of the system/channel you want to exclude | |
| 29 3. Check the "Exclude from HOI" checkbox. | |
| 30 | |
| 31 System from and to dates | |
| 32 ------------------------ | |
| 33 If you had several old systems that are no longer working, or if you have performed a major upgrade to your system, | |
| 34 it is a good idea to include this information to the HOI. Each system configuration includes the | |
| 35 fields **Configuration from** and **Configuration to** that define the time period that the system was active. | |
