Getting Started 3.10 Tools Menu TSTooI Documentation The Tools menu lists tools that perform additional analysis on time series that are selected in the Time Series Results list. These features are similar to the Results features in that a level of additional analysis is performed to produce the data product. GIs Help Repark NVJ5RF5 Opkians Tools Menu Menu_Tools Analysis tools are described in more detail in Chapter 5 -Tools. The following sections describe the Tools...Options and Too1s...Diagnostics features. 3.10.1 Options The Tools...Options menu displays program options, in tabbed panels. Currently, only one option is available, to specify the total length of water district identifiers (WDIDs), for use with the HydroBase input type. General '.HydraBase. V4DID Length: Ir Cancel OK Tools_O ptions_HydroBase The WDIDs are used as the location part of the time series identifier. A water district identifier is comprised of a two-digit zero-padded water district (e.g., O 1, 2 0) and azero-padded identifier for structures within the water district. For example, ditch headgates are typically numbered 5 0 0 or greater, within each water district. For modeling purposes, the WDIDs are typically treated as character strings. To allow for distinct and unambiguous identifiers, WDIDs are typically padded with zeros to have consistent overall lengths. In the past, six characters were used for identifiers in model data sets. However, this length is insufficient to handle identifiers in some water districts and therefore the default in TSTooI is seven characters. This menu item can be used to set the length if TSTooI is being used to create time series and the default length is not compatible with the needed output. The WDID length is enforced when time series are listed. If necessary, the time series identifiers can be edited manually to add or remove padding zeros. 3.10.1 Diagnostics The Too1s...Diagnostics menu displays the diagnostics interface, which is used to set message levels and view messages as TSTooI processes data. This is useful for tracking data problems, which result in warnings in display and analysis routines. Review the messages in the status bar at the bottom of the main window if output is not as expected. For more information, consult the log file, which contains these Getting Started - 22
