2.  Close Microsoft Excel.

3.  After the browser reports the file has finished downloading to the computer, either choose "Run" from the prompt or locate the downloaded file and double-click on it.

4.  Follow the prompts during the installation, and we recommend that you use the default choices.

(You will be prompted to indicate whether you wish to install TeleVista. TeleVista is an optional program that links Telemet data to Advent Axys or Advent APX. If you have a TeleVista ID and use Axys or APX you can choose to install it.)

5.  After the installer reports that the setup is complete, you will see a Telemet Orion icon on your desktop. Double-click it to launch Orion.

6.  The first time Telemet Orion is run you will be prompted for your Login ID and Password. Enter them and choose OK.

7.  You will also be asked if you want to log on to the server. Choose Yes. Telemet Orion will then load and you will be able to work with the default screens and workspaces.
