The OSI can only be opened and configured from the ResSim Simulation module. Each OSI configuration is associated with an active alternative, so you must open a simulation and identify an active alternative in the ResSim Simulation module.

When you first open the OSI, you will be presented with a fairly large blank window. Don't despair, it's not actually blank; it has a Title Bar and a Menu Bar on it above a large white panel ("Figure: Operation Support Interface - Unconfigured (Blank)"). The Menu Bar contains everything you will need to configure the OSI.

Configuring the OSI is fairly easy. Instructions for getting started are in the subpages, but they begin with adding a tab.
