NeoCal for Qtopia User Guide
Installation
The NeoCal download file (neocal_qtopia_setup.exe) is a Windows installation or setup program that will install the NeoCal software and related documentation files on the desktop computer. Open or execute this file on your desktop computer and follow the instructions to proceed with the installation.
This installation program will install the NeoCal files onto the hard drive of your desktop computer and create a program group called "NeoCal for Qtopia" that can be used to access the NeoCal documentation.
If you have downloaded a file without 'setup' in the name, you will have to manually decompress the archive.
The installed or decompressed directory will contain this user guide in .pdf format and both the NeoCal application and user guide in .ipk format. The user guide .ipk file can be installed and removed independently of the application itself and is not required for use of the calculator. Due to current technical limitations, the user guide must be installed to RAM, not an expansion card.
To transfer the software to the Zaurus using Qtopia Desktop on the PC,
- Click on the Documents icon on the left side of the window.
- Choose the File -> Upload File menu option to upload the neocal-qtopia ipk file to the Zaurus. Optionally, upload the neocal-guide-qtopia ipk file to install the HTML user guide.
