New Software Installation Guide

[ianfallon]

Everyone,

Lee has created a new top level category on the forum where the documentation will live:

http://forum.pilotaware.com/index.php/board,5.0.html

I've created a 1st cut of a software installation and configuration guide. The idea is this covers everything after the hardware build to get the system up and running.

It should be the first port of call for new PilotAware users setting up their units and should be followed in a step-by-step fashion.

Very happy to receive feedback, errata etc on this. Please post any comments on the existing General->Documentation thread here:

So far the navigation software covered in the doc is just SkyDemon. If anyone would like to take the equivalent screen shots on the other navigation software

systems and send them to me I can flesh out the other sections better. Email: pilotaware@ifallon.com

Hopefully it will help with / avoid some of the more basic troubleshooting issues.

Thank You Ian,.

New software loaded with no problems.

Took 3 hours for previous version with lots of SD card problems.

Just one thing, recommend deleting all previous versions from download file, I accidentally picked the wrong file once.
