Guest users may also enter the Autshumato TMS, but with limited functionality. Guest users can:
•Set the source and target languages;
•Search for terms (limited functionality);
•Insert special characters; and
1.On the welcome page (index.html), click on last word of the “Guests enter here” sentence.
2.You will then be taken to the Termbrowser page.
It is possible to set the source and target languages used by the Autshumato TMS in the Source and Target drop-down lists. The drop-down lists display all the index fields in the termbank; i.e. the languages that are available in the Autshumato TMS.
Selecting a language in the source language drop-down list:
•changes the default language (English) to the language selected;
•ensures that search results will be displayed for terms found in the selected source language only; and
•sorts the index fields so that the source language term will be the first index field to be displayed for each record.
The target language can only be set once the source language has been set. By setting the target language, you specify the language of the term to be displayed (if available) immediately after the source language term. The other languages will still be displayed, but will be placed alphabetically (according to language name) after the source and target language terms. If there is no target language term for the selected record, the terms in other languages will be displayed directly after the source language term.
To set the source and target languages
1.Select the source language from the drop-down list.
2.Select the target language from the drop-down list.
3.The search function will now search for terms in the specified source language and when a record is displayed, the source language term will be displayed first, followed directly by the target language term.
As a Guest user, use the search function to find and open records. Note that the function depends on the source language specified in the source language drop-down list; the default source language is English.
