- Connect to a WMTS server in the Catalog window, choose a tile service, then drag it into your map.
- Click the Add Data button on the Standard toolbar to open the Add Data dialog box.
- Click the Look in arrow and choose GIS Servers. This gives you a list of servers you have previously used.

- Click Add.
