hi mate, go in to the downloads and get the haynes guide there..itll tell you most of the stuff that you need to know..also if your gona buy one of ebay they're fairly easy to set up..all you need is a valid mac and boltar 250 config. all this and tutorials are in the downloads section. have a read and then if you still cant figure it out get back to us.
