Info

When the Pocket PC is cradled and the installation proceeds, you will be asked a question about the WingX destination directory. We suggest answering “Yes” to the following question: During the installation copying of files, you will see the progress dialog box that looks similar to: After the installation has completed, you will see the following dialog box – click “OK”. Please look at the Pocket PC screen. If you are asked a Yes/No questions about copying newer files across, please tap on “Yes”. Your Pocket PC may then give you the option of installing WingX in main memory or on a storage card. We strongly recommend installing WingX in main memory. Here it is in bold: Install WINGX in Main Memory, not on a Storage Card During our extensive development and testing, we found what we believe to be a serious bug in the Microsoft design of the Pocket PC and how it interacts with storage cards. Engineers at Microsoft did not believe us. We provided the code. Now they believe us. This bug can/will cause an application that is running on a storage card to crash after the Pocket PC has been turned off and then turned on some time later. 14
Running WingX To run WingX, tap on “Start” and then select WingX from the drop down menu. After a few seconds, WingX will display the dialog box shown here on the right. If you see the dialog box as shown on the right, it means that your Pocket PC already has the Compact Framework installed and you are ready to start exploring the powerful features of WingX. If this dialog box is not displayed, please refer to the “Missing Compact Framework” section later in this chapter. This important disclaimer dialog box states the following: DISCLAIMER – PLEASE READ “Note: As per 14 CFR Part 91.3, you, as PIC, are responsible for the safety of the flight. Please use WingX only as a backup to your own calculations. Hilton Software takes no responsibility for any consequences whatsoever from the use of WingX. Continue?” Flight Safety While we take every precaution to ensure that the code is correct and the data is correct and current, we cannot guarantee that the results are absolutely 100% correct and safe. Therefore, please only tap on “Yes” if you understand and acknowledge that WingX should only be used as a backup and should not be the sole ‘instrument’ upon which you make your go/no-go (or any other) decisions. 15
