Ensure that the newly specified Data Server name is now showing in the Data Server combo­box.

Select Server/Connect to Data Server, from the Data Server’s menu bar. A dialog (similar to that shown in Figure 8­3) will appear. Selecting Yes will then attempt to connect the Data Visualizer to the specified Data Server.
Figure 8­3. Connecting to a Data Server
Note that the Data Visualizer can be connected to any previously added Data Server appearing in the Data Server combo­box by following steps 3 & 4 above. If the connection is successful a confirmation dialog will appear, and the text Connected to <server> using port <port> will appear below the display area, indicating the selected server and port number. Also, the Glider combo­box will be updated to list all gliders known to the Data Server. If the connection is not successful, a warning dialog will appear. The dialog in Figure 8­3 simply warns that connecting to the new Data Server will reset the list of gliders shown in the Glider combo­box to those known by the newly connected Data Server.
The Data Visualizer can only be connected to one Data Server at a time, so connecting to Data Server B while still connected to Data Server A will simply drop the connection to Data Server A.
Any previously added Data Server can be removed by selecting the site in the Data Server combo­box, and selecting Server/Delete Data Server from the Data Visualizer’s menu bar.
8.5 Displaying Sensor Data
Sensor data (such as glider depth, battery voltage etc.) is displayed on the graph y­axis, while the x­axis displays only time, longitude or distance flown by the glider. For Page 109 of 228
