0. Legal mumbo-jumbo

This software is provided as is. HabakukSoft makes no warranty this software does anything usefull, or anything at all. It might destroy your computer, house, life, heck, the whole world. You have been warned. We cannot take responsibility for what actually happens. If you disagree, then you are not allowed to start this application at all. Use it for free, have fun if it works, move on of it doesn't. And make backups. Being free to use does not mean belong to you. Zeus-o-mat is owned in code and binary form by HabakukSoft. You may use it, but in no way distribute it. Direct others to the HabakukSoft web site for download instead (http://www.habakuk.ch).



1. Installation

Unzip the folder. Move that folder to a place where you feel it is nice to be for zeus-o-mat. Installation done.


2. General use

Startup the application, specify locations to save the data and click the "Run" button. That's it.


3. Filter setup

You can add four letter ICAO codes in the filter listbox. Doing so is possible after checking the appropriate checkbox. USe the + and - buttons to add/delete entries. Only airports listed here will be in the X-Plane RWX file. 


4. Saving X-Plane METAR files

You can specify paths for the RAW data (as received from the internet) as well as the one for the processed METAR.rwx file for use in X-Plane. To have Zeus-o-mat update the file in your X-Plane system, specify the X-Plane folder as the root folder for the METAR file. 
The RAW data can be saved anywhere for further reference and processing.


5. Auto-Update

If the appropriate checkbox is checked, Zeus-o-mat will automatically download the most recent RAW data from the internet. You specify the frequency. The RAW data is published in hourly cycles, but for certain situations update frequency higher than hourly might be handy.


6. Bugs, Questions, Feedback
