Record Selection

When a user initially loads the HERMES Java applet, they will encounter a tabbed pane with the 'Record Selection' tab active. Before a user can view the 'Waveform Viewer' tab, they must first select a Database, an associated Record, and any annotator they would like to include in the respected waveform visualization.

Databases, Records, and Annotators are all chosen in a similar fashion. A user can select the Database of interest from the Database drop-down menu. When a selection is made, the associated Records and Annotators of the database are made visible via similar styled drop-down menus.

A user can verify which items they have chosen from each drop-down menu by looking at the 'Selected:' value hovering above each drop-down menu. If a user is satisfied with the current selections, they can view associated waveforms by clicking the 'Load Record' button. If the user would like to view data of a different Database, they can click on the 'Select New Database' button which will refresh the tabbed pane with the initial Database drop-down menu with the selection of choices.
