While the general use of EFDC_Explorer is fairly standard with respect to a user interface for the Windows® operating system, some basic conventions will be explained here that should help the user.


Table 2  EFDC_Explorer user interface conventions.

A black box with green text provide information only, it cannot be edited from that location. The information/data may be modified elsewhere.

A while box with black text is the primary data/text input interface.

A radial button indicates a range of options. Only one can be selected for each operation requested.

The "Browse" button is used extensively in the program to allow the user the ability to navigate to the requested/desired file(s) rather than typing in the adjacent text box.


The user will notice several "grayed out" or disabled features in EFDC_Explorer. This indicates that a particular feature is not available for the currently applied version of EFDC or unavailable based on the user selected options. The "grayed out" options are not available to the user.
