(S) The lower portion of the menu contains a few controls that affect the views of each
CW page. The “Page Refresh” combo box allows a User to select how often a page
automatically refreshes. A value of “0” (zero) indicates not to refresh automatically.
The “Table Rows” combo box allows a User to increase or decrease the number of rows
shown for tables that occur on any CW page. The “Operation Filter” combo box allows a
User to select a Operation view filter. This control is populated with all Operations that
the User has Read or Read-Write access to (see CBUM). If a particular Operation is
selected, then any “View” pages will show only entities/assets for that particular
Operation. This combo box also includes an “ALL” option, that shows all Operation
entities/assets that the User has Read or Read-Write access to.
(S) On the bottom of every CW page is a ticker that will periodically inform the user of
any new Alert activity. This ticker also lists the current CherryTree/Web host time in
UTC, as CB events are time-tagged according to the CherryTree/Web host time.
(S) CW is a highly cross-referenced user interface, so typically, clicking on any link will
yield a page with more detailed information about the link object. For example, clicking
on a “Mission Name” link will yield a Mission Details page with detailed information
about that Mission. Clicking on a “Flytrap Name” link will yield a Flytrap Details page
with detailed information about that Flytrap.
5.4 (U) CW Overview Page
(S) Upon successful login, the user is directed to the “Overview” page (see Figure 2),
which shows recent Alert and Flytrap Beacon activity. This screen will periodically
refresh according to the countdown timer on the page. The user can return to the
“Overview” page by clicking the “Overview” link on the menu. Figure 2 shows the
Overview page.
5.5 (U) Changing Your Password
(S) To change your CW password, on the left menu pane, click the “Administer 
Password” link. Enter and re-enter a secure password (at least 10 digits, which includes
numbers, letters, and special characters, and is not a word or phrase found in a
dictionary), and click “Submit”.
5.6 (U) Operation Permissions
(S) While logged in to CW, you will only have access to those Operation-associated
entities to which you have proper permissions. Operation-associated entities include
Missions and Target Decks, and any data resulting from Missions and/or Target Decks,
including Alerts, Copy Data, Harvest Data, etc. In general, if you have “Read” access to a
Operation-associated entity, then you will be able to “View” that data (e.g., if Mission
“Red 1” is associated with Operation “Red”, and you have “Read” access to “Red”, then
the “Red 1” Mission should display when you click the “View  Missions” link on the
menu). In general, if you have “Read-Write” access to a Operation-associated entity, then
in addition to “View” functionality, you will also be able to “Plan” and “Assign” entities
for that Operation (see CBUM) for a discussion of Mission Assignment as it relates to
