The following instructions explain how to install and use Alexicom AAC for Android,
the Android app that allows you to publish your Alexicom pages to
your Android device. |
|
|
Requirements
To use Alexicom AAC for Android, you must have:
-
an Android device running platform 1.5 or higher
-
an active Alexicom account, and
-
an SD card (or a storage partition, as on the Archos tablets).
Getting your Alexicom pages onto the Android device
Once you have installed the Alexicom app on your Android device, you will need to get your AAC pages onto the Android SD card. You
can publish pages directly from the Alexicom server or you can copy an AlexicomTech.zip file from your computer to the Android's SD card using a USB connection.
Copying an AlexicomTech.zip file from a computer
NOTE: You need to have an AlexicomTech.zip file on your computer for this method to work.
To copy an AlexicomTech.zip file from your computer:
1) Plug your USB cable into the Android device.
Plug the other end of the cable into the USB port on your computer.
Pull down the notification bar on your Android and press the USB connected option.
|
|
|
2) Press Mount.
|
|
3) On your computer, go to My Computer.
Your Android device should be listed as a Removable Disk.
|
4) On your computer, open the Android Removable Disk directory.
If there is no Alexicom directory in the root directory of your Android SD card, create one.
|
5) Still on your computer, open the Alexicom directory on the Android device.
Copy AlexicomTech.zip from your computer into the Alexicom directory. (The locaton of the AlexicomTech.zip file on your computer may vary, depending on where you saved it when you published it.)
|
6) In the lower right corner of your PC, left click Safely Remove Hardware.
|
|
7) Still on the PC, select Safely Remove USB Mass Storage Device. You should see the pop-up message Safe to Remove Hardware above the icon.
|
|
|
8) On the Android device, select Turn off USB storage in the notification bar. It is now safe to disconnect the USB cable from your Android device and the computer.
|
|
|
9) Launch Alexicom from your app menu.
|
|
|
10) Press the Menu button then press Unzip new pages.
|
|
|
11) Your pages will automatically be extracted. Once they have been unpacked, the message Page list updated will be displayed briefly.
Your pages are now ready for use. Select a page to load.
