3: A course coordinator can add slots, by pressing \textbf{parm} (Managing Parameters) on the main menu and then clicking on the link Managing Slots. The link will guide you to a page showing all available slots. You can control which slots to show based on opening date, as well as what slot information to show.

5: There are two ways of creating slot, using the web interface in LON CAPA (see Adding Slot Using the Interface \ref{Slot_AddInterface}) and uploading a comma delimited file. Uploading a file allows you to use other applications in creating a comma delimited file, and automate the entry of multiple slots (see Upload Slot File \ref{Slot_CommaDelimited}).

7: Each slot can be edited or deleted according to your needs (see Editing and Deleting Slots \ref{Slot_EditDelete}). When a slot is deleted, students cannot use that slot anymore, even if they have been scheduled to take it before deletion.

9: Once slots have been created, you must set the parameters of the resource that uses that slot (see Slots and Resources \ref{Slot_ResourceParameter}). Once this is complete, students will not be able to see the resource unless they are the correct students at the correct time and place.
