Once you select the Choose Options link (in Step 8 of the tutorial), you are given several ordering options, including "FtpPush" options that send the data directly to your system (FTP site) via FTP. Click the Option 2 button in the options list to order the data granule via FtpPush, as shown in this example.

After you click the Option 2 button from the options list, a new Choose Ordering Options page displays. In the "Ordering Option 2" section, select Native Granule - FtpPush from the items list. You must then enter your FTP site host name, password, destination directory, user name, and a label in the appropriate boxes, as illustrated below. Then click on the OK! Accept my choice & return to the shopping cart! button at the bottom of the page.
The shopping cart's Step 1: Choose Ordering Options main page displays again, updated to indicate the selected option for this data set. If you placed multiple products (not simply multiple versions of the same product) in your shopping cart, you must select ordering options for each (click the Choose Options link to the left of the desired data set name to begin options selection, as described in Step 8 of the tutorial). Once you have selected ordering options for all data sets in the shopping cart, this page will display with a Go to Step 2: Order Form button. Click on the Go to Step 2: Order Form button. Return to the EDG tutorial main page (Step 11) for further instructions on completing your order.
