0.2.0.x Remote App Instructions

Post by OAL956 Tasos Ionas »

Latest beta version is using Logitech's Arx App for remote control. To use this feature you need to install Logitech Gaming Software from here

- At this time only 64bit operating systems are supported (This will be fixed very soon). - Both 64 and 32 Bit OSs are supported.
- After installing LGS, download the App "Arx Control" in your mobile device. Open the LGS and then launch the app in your device.
- The app should search your local network for computers running LGS and prompt you to connect to your pc.
- After you authorise the mobile device the pairing is completed. From now on the software will remember your device.
- In ACARS go to -> Tools -> Logitech Arx ->Connect.

Please note that no Logitech hardware is required to install and use LGS and Arx Control.

Note 1: Since this is a beta version, there is only one checklist for Airbus A320. We are working on the other checklists and soon will be added to the app. At this point your feedback is valuable to improve the UI and the usability of the checklists concept.
Note 2: The interface is experimental and was designed for ~ 5" screens, soon it will become dynamic and responsive for all screen sizes.
Note 3: We are using Logitech's framework to host the app since it provides a fair Client-Server environment with no cost. To develop our own apps we need two completely different implementations for iOS and Android and two separate developer subscriptions to Apple and Google respectively for something that is currently experimental.

Fix KB3033929 needs to be installed in Win7. Otherwise an error message for not signed/trusted software will occur during Logitech Software installation.

It does not affect the installation I am just mentioning it.
