| 166 | |
| 167 | To start the default version of GSGT in TBFM Weather mode, at the command line enter: |
| 168 | |
| 169 | ''' gsgt --wx --tbfm ''' |
| 170 | |
| 171 | To launch a version of GSGT that is not the default, specify the full path: |
| 172 | |
| 173 | ''' /usr/local/gsgt.x.x.x.x/bin/gsgt --wx --tbfm ''' |
| 174 | |
| 175 | When GSGT in weather mode is started, it is necessary to open an existing weather scenario or to create a new weather scenario. |
| 176 | || '''Selection''' || '''Response''' || |
| 177 | ||Open || Choose an existing scenario from $WX_PATH || |
| 178 | ||New || '''1.''' Choose a location in $WX_PATH, and enter a name for the new weather scenario. \\ '''2.''' Add desired time slices. || |
| 179 | |
| 180 | == Creating a new weather scenario == |
| 181 | |
| 182 | After launching GSGT from the command line the GSGT window will pop up. In the window 'left click' on 'Scenario' and select 'New'. Alternatively you can select the blank piece of paper icon below 'Scenario'. |

| 186 | 'New Scenario' will appear. GSGT will need at least one ERAM airspace adaptation selected in order to create a scenario. 'Left click' on 'adaptation' and then the subfolder 'eadp' to get a list of available ERAM adaptations. Select at least one airspace to load. |
| 187 | |
| 188 | Whether a new weather scenario was created or an existing weather scenario was selected, GSGT opens an individual map display window for each time slice. Optionally, select "Load Adaptation" from the "Scenario" menu bar. Displaying ARTCC airspace and sectors may be useful. |
