1. To download/purchase Cirrus terrain and clutter data, first open the Tile Selector and choose the correct tiles for download/purchase. Be sure to set the right dataset selection.

2. The file manifest.enc must reside in the <install_drive>:\ProgramData\EDX\cirrus\ folder.

3. The Land Use(clutter) attenuation data file must be pointed to within the Land Use(clutter) menu.

4. The clutter and terrain files are each zipped into a specific root file directory at time of encryption.  Currently, this directory is CirrusTerrain for terrain data and CirrusClutter for clutter data.

5. The clutter and terrain data do not need to reside in the folders designated in the manifest.enc file (which is binary format, so not viewable). However, if the data is stored in different folders, this could impact any future features that may be enabled for the tile selector.  EDX recommends placing these folders in \My Documents or \Documents under the \EDX folder.

6. Copy/move the appropriate Cirrus files into each folder.

7. If terrain and clutter files worked previously but now show bad data, one thing to try is to re-download the manifest.enc file. This can be done through refreshing the manifest file from within the Tile Selector, or re-downloading the manifest file from the Tile Selector as well.

Terrain Setup

1. Open SignalPro and load a project, then in the menu bar, select Databases>Terrain to open the Terrain Databases dialog box.

2. In the Type drop-down list, select EDX PTE format.

3. In the corresponding Directory Location window, Browse to and select the folder location where the Cirrus terrain files reside.

4. Ensure the Active checkbox is checked and then click OK to save the settings and exit the dialog box.

5. If later, you add more terrain files to the folder, in order to get SignalPro to re-read the folder, you can do either of the following:

   1. Open the dialog box, uncheck the Active check box, then click OK to save and exit, then re-open the dialog box and check the Active check box,  then click OK to save and exit.

   2. Close the project, exit SignalPro, re-open SignalPro and re-open the project.
