If you are planning to use the VistA applications such as Registration, Scheduling etc. you need to add new Institution to the INSTITUTION File.

Go back to the VISTA> Prompt and "SET XUMF=1" then "D Q^DI". 
Select Option #1 and edit File #4. 
Edit the field STATION NUMBER. 
For Station Number, you must enter the same number as the Site Number when you initialized FileMan. 
(See How Do I initialize FileMan ? and the Begin Setting Up Vista section.)
