Bug Fixes:
Fixed the IGC file to correctly show GTY and GID.
SUA base altitude lists are now displayed in meters if meters is selected for SUA altitudes.
The last waypoint selection error is corrected.
Fixed the “W” attribute bug. An indexing problem affected the US start gate only, the gate used the
wrong point.
A bug was fixed that showed altitudes and widths incorrectly for some UK airways.
The 302, GPS-NAV, L-NAV and Pocket-NAV use unsigned integers for altitudes. Cambridge
Windows and DOS PC programs do not support entering below sea level waypoints. Pocket-NAV
ignored below sea level waypoints or put in erroneous data. It now gives a warning that below sea
level waypoints are not supported, sets the elevation to zero, and displays the point normally.
2.0 Setting up the Palm or Pocket-PC
The Pocket-PC is a more recent version of the Palm-PC. The Compaq iPaq is another, even more recent
version. Pocket-PCs use Windows CE Version 3.0, and Palm-PCs use Windows CE Version 2.x. Compaq
Aero 1520 and 1530 Palm-PCs can be upgraded to Pocket-PCs. The iPaq, Palm and Pocket-PCs require
different versions of the Pocket-NAV program. Pocket-NAV for the Pocket-PC will not run on the Palm-PC.
Pocket-NAV for the Palm-PC will run on the Pocket-PC, but an annoying task bar will cover part of the
screen. The iPaq version only runs on the iPaq. The Pocket-PC and iPaq are faster than the Palm-PC, but
have no real advantages for the Pocket-NAV program.
We use the term Pocket-PC generically, when there is no difference between the iPaq, Palm-PC and PocketPC.
Touch Screen
The Pocket-PC uses a touch sensitive screen that responds to touching or tapping and dragging your finger or
the stylus across it. The touch screen provides a very direct and easy to use interface for the Pocket-NAV.
Touch controls for use in flight are large so that they can be accessed easily with a finger in rough air.
On Palm-PCs (not Pocket-PCs) the task bar should be set on Auto hide to make use of the maximum screen
area. Touch Start, Settings, Taskbar, and select Auto hide.
The Reset Button
The reset button is inside a small hole on the back of the Pocket-PC, usually near the upper left. This button
stops all running programs without disturbing any saved information. Push it if a program gets stuck or won’t
run, or if you get a repeated comm port error. Once the Pocket-NAV program is running and operating
correctly, you should not have to push reset.
