Installing:
Run the setup.exe program provided to install the Windows desktop
version of HydroCalc. After installation you will find a new
HydroCalc program group added to your Windows Start Button>Programs
section. Go there and select to install PocketPlanter to your Palm OS
and/or PocketPC handheld computer.

After installing HydroCalc to your PDA, you will see a new icon on
the PDA screen: a little calculator with "drops of water" around it.
This is the icon you tap to start HydroCalc.

Uninstalling:
To remove HydroCalc from a Palm OS handheld computer, go to the 
handheld's "main menu" and select Delete from the menu that drops down
from the top of the screen.

To remove HydroCalc from a PocketPC, open the HydroCalc program group
under Windows Start Button>Programs. Select "Remove HydroCalc from PocketPC".

To remove HydroCalc from a Windows desktop computer, open the HydroCalc
program group under Windows Start Button>Programs. Select 
"Uninstall HydroCalc Desktop". NOTE: If you want to remove HydroCalc from
both a PocketPC and the Windows desktop, remove it first from the
PocketPC and then from Windows.


Using HydroCalc(tm):

  NOTE: Look for (i) information icons in the upper right corner of
        most HydroCalc(tm) screens. Tapping them will bring up
        helpful information about the screen you're currently viewing.

The HydroCalc(tm) main menu features several different calculators.
Tap the one you want to work with. You can use any calculator individually,
just to get some quick information, or you can use the calculators
as a "team", working top to bottom, on the main menu to determine
available water flow and operating pressure available for any zone of a
sprinkler system.

See the included web browser-format interactive tutorial to teach you
how to use HydroCalc(tm). The setup program will place a link to start
the turorial in the program folder Windows Start Button>Programs>HydroCalc.
