About Ivent
Ivent is an application to be installed on a handheld Windows Mobile device. It is used for field measurements (estimations) of sample plot data. The inventory of a sample plot includes the registration of tree and site characteristics. The application can retrieve data from peripheral devices (through Bluetooth (TM)), including a digital caliper (for tree diameter measurement), a clinometer (for tree height measurement), a GPS, and a new tree positioning device (PosTex).
System requirements
- Windows Mobile device with Windows Mobile 5 or later
Prerequisites
- None
Installation
- Download IventSetup.cab and Holmen.sdf to your PC
- Connect the Windows Mobile Device to your PC with ActiveSync (Windows XP) or with Mobile Device Center (Windows Vista)
- Copy the setup file för Ivent (IventSetup.cab) to the device
- Install Ivent by clicking on the cab-fil (IventSetup.cab) from within the device's Explorer
- Copy the demo database (Holmen.sdf) to the device, folder \My Documents\Databases\Holmen\
- It may be necessary to install some additional libraries, depending on the configuration on the device. You can find these components (cab-files) here: ftp://salix.slu.se/download/heureka/Ivent/. The files are
- .NET Compact Framework: file NETCFv2.wce5.armv4i.cab. Probably not necessary if you have Windows Mobile 6.0 or later.
- SQL Server Compact Edition: file sql.ppc.wce5.armv4i.cab
When Ivent is started an ini-fil called "app.ini" is read. This file is in the same folder as Ivent is installed in. Example of the content of "app.ini":
DatabasePath=\My Documents\databases\ ComPort_GPS=COM9 ComPort_Caliper=COM8 **ComPort_DME=COM7 **ComPort_HME=COM6 PosTexNumberOfValues=3 PosTexMaxDiff=1.0 ** Invetvall (ms) LaserTimerIntervall=1000
- You may have to edit the port settings so that they match your mobile device. TDS Nomad uses two ports for Bluetooth, ports COM8 and COM9.
- If the caliper is connected to COM8 then the ini-filen can be left as is.
- If you use an external GPS och connect it to COM9 the no editing is needed in the ini-file.
- The caliper is a "Digitech Professional" with software "Digitech 11".
