• The Jeppesen Terminal Chart Viewer layout shows only airport terminal

charts and text. Most of the layout options are preset, and most other

features are hidden.

• Jeppesen may create custom configurations for specific hardware units or to

display certain pages. If a custom configuration requires a certain resolution,

that resolution overrides the Display Size settings (see

Selecting a Display

Size

below).

Adding Custom Configurations

If you receive a customized configuration from Jeppesen to meet your hardware
needs, you will receive a configuration file (.icf file). To use a customized
configuration:

1. Copy and paste or move the .icf file into one of the following directories

based upon your setup and operating system:

o

C:\ProgramData\Jeppesen\FliteDeck3

(Windows Vista)

o

C:\Jeppesen\Program Files\FliteDeck3

(Windows 2000 and XP)

o

C:\Jeppesen\FliteDeck3

(Windows 2000 and XP)

2. Open the FliteDeck Setup program.

3. In the Configuration tab, select Other.

4. In the Other drop-down menu, select the custom configuration.

5. In the Select a Display Size section, select Full-Screen.

6. Click OK.

7. Open Jeppesen FliteDeck.

Setting Display Size

In the Default, Enroute and some custom configurations, you can select FliteDeck

display size and screen aspect:

Full Screen — Uses the maximum amount of available space on your screen.

The size of the display is shown in the boxes.

Specified — Use the drop-down menus or enter a specific resolution to

specify the width and height of the application. The resolution cannot exceed
your actual screen resolution.

Select Full Screen if you frequently change your computer resolution settings
between portrait (taller - 600 x 800, 768 x 1024, etc.) and landscape (wider - 800 x
600, 1024 x 768, etc.). FliteDeck automatically selects the configuration that

matches your computer’s current settings so you do not have to manually correct it
in the Setup every time it changes.

If you change your hardware between portrait and landscape while FliteDeck is

running, you must shut down and restart FliteDeck so it can adjust to the other
setting.
