Chapter 2 : Getting Started

Deckman Installation

As previously mentioned, there are currently two versions of Deckman
that support either the C-Map or Euronav charting systems. The install
for each version varies slightly as detailed below.

Install Deckman by running the SetupDeckman.exe installation
program on the CD-ROM. Note that for a Euronav version, there are
two parts to the installation: Deckman itself and the Euronav Charting
System (ECS).

Deckman requires a security device known as a dongle, and this will
need to be connected to either the parallel or USB port of your computer
before you go any further. Having connected the dongle, run Deckman
from the Start button. At this point Deckman should recognize this is a
new installation and put up a dialog asking you to install the driver for
the dongle: the installation procedure is slightly different for the two
different types of dongle, but for both simply follow the on-screen
prompts.

If installing a C-Map version, then the necessary drivers will be found
on the Deckman CD so you simply tell Windows to search on your CD
drive. The Euronav dongle drivers are installed onto your hard drive
with the ECS.

Once you have installed the dongle drivers it may be necessary to restart
your computer.

Start Deckman again. The program will now go through the complete
startup routine, and then ask you for a 16-digit security code – enter the
code you have been supplied, then click OK. You should then see the
navigation window with some initial waypoints in the English Channel.
