Getting Started

The Observing Tool is a Java application and therefore needs the Java Runtime Environment version 5.0 installed on your platform. For checking your Java installation please consult the OT User Manual or contact your local IT support. Provided you have JRE 5.0 and Java Web Start (comes with JRE 5.0) you can startup the OT using your browser. Alternatively, if the OT has been installed using the tarball distribution, you can startup the OT from the command line. Details about both distribution methods are given the OT User Manual.
