How do I install / add FTX-Orbx scenery

[Eagle Spirit]

Seriously considering this software. I watched a video which did a nice comprehensive overview. I was fine to the point where you add FSX and scenery, but below was a box to add other scenery, such as FTX/Orbx scenery.  How/what do we pit in the box? just write FTX or Orbx? ???. Sorry, but I'm a "noob". Just need some clarification before I DL this software.

The reason  for putting Orbx data in the Additional Scenery list, is because the Orbx Central program will uninstall scenery when you switch regions. Thus there is no possible way to get all your installed Orbx airports just from the scenery.cfg - only the current active region will be there.

If you only have one Orbx region, it doesn't matter, but if you have more than one, you need to list every Orbx region. If you don't want to go through the browser, you can type them into a text file called AdditionalSceneryLocations.txt which then goes into the My Documents\Plan-G Files folder.

For reference, this is the contents of my AdditionalSceneryLocations.txt file:
