Adding products
===============

After completing all the information related to the your system, we need to specify which 
product we need to acquire.
To do this, click on the **Products** in the *Product settings* panel.
This will take you to a page with a list of all available products that are connected with your stations. This list should
be empty if this is the first time you add a product. 

To add a new product to the database click on **Add Products** at the top right of the screen.
This will take you to a new page were you can fill in the needed information. As before, the fields in **bold**
are mandatory and you will need to fill them before you can save you new system. 

For now you will need to fill in the following fields:

Product type
   The type of this product. (ex. extinction only)

Usecase
   The use-case number (an integer) based on the descriptions given in the appropriate documentation. (ex. 0)
 
Product channels
   Here you need to specify the channels that are involved in the calculation of the product. If you run out of
   empty spaces you can add a new blank line by clicking on **Add another Product Channel**.

System products
   Here you need to specify the system that this product is related to. 
   
Next you will need to fill in various options in the **Product options** table. You will need to fill in the following:

Low range error threshold
   ...
   
High range error threshold
   ...
   
Detection limit
   ... in :math:`m^{-1}sr^{-1}` (backscatter) or in :math:`m^{-1}` (extinction)

   ...

Next depending on the product type you selected you have to fill the values in the tables below.

When you are done, press the **save** button at the bottom right of the page.
This will take you back to the list of your products. If everything went OK the new product you just added should appear
in the list.

We don't have to make any more changes in this part, so you can click on **Home** 
on the top left of the page to return to the starting page of the *admin section*.
