2. We will make the necessary changes and send it back.  You will get an e-mail with a download link when it is ready.

 

3. Synchronize with the hub. Then close TLM, and download the new file. Unzip it, and replace your local data file with the updated one. NOTE: be sure you synchronize with the hub before replacing your file so you don't loose any data.

What to do with the Updated Data File
