Deployment considerations
General considerations

Deployment considerations
Jeppesen FliteDeck Pro X is released through available Apple distribution models.

General considerations
General administrator considerations include:

• FliteDeck Pro X requires an initial data download for use in the app. Jeppesen
Distribution Manager Pro (JDM Pro) is the web-based application that is used
exclusively to distribute data to devices.
• When updating the FliteDeck Pro X app, the existing version of the app is
overwritten and data registration information is automatically shared.
• With each new major and minor release, FliteDeck Pro X introduces new func-
tionality that may require the distribution of new or updated content types.
Always make sure that users have the necessary time and bandwidth to
perform the complete update.
• An operator might choose to use a Customer Configuration file to define
FliteDeck Pro X global settings and integrate optional functionality. This
configuration file may need to be updated to support any new functionality
introduced with the new release.
• FliteDeck Pro X supports aircraft interface devices (AIDs) from various vendors.
Due to differences in AIDs and their installations, different configuration
parameters might be needed. Your AID integrator can provide the needed
configuration information. Or for more information, contact your Jeppesen
account manager.

Considerations for updating to 4.2


Data updates are required for FliteDeck Pro X to run when updating to version 4.2.

IMPORTANT: Make sure that users have the necessary time and bandwidth to perform
the complete update.

Updating to FliteDeck Pro X 4.2 requires the distribution of the following updated
content types:

• Enroute data (new version: j3n_v06)


• Cultural data (new version: j3s_v06)
• Tailored enroute data (new version: j3n_ten_v02), required if an operator
subscribes to Tailored Enroute Services

If an operator subscribes to Airport Moving Map, a new content type must be distrib-
uted:

• AMM data (new content type: jds_sma_v01)

Finally, if an operator chooses to control the new global setting, Download Wx Only
Along the Route, or add support for a new aircraft interface device (AID), the
Customer Configuration file needs to be updated.

Connecting to an aircraft interface device (AID)


FliteDeck Pro X supports aircraft interface devices (AIDs) from various vendors. To
support a connection to an AID, FliteDeck Pro X provides the Data Source Selector
in FliteDeck Pro X global settings. From this setting, the user can select an AID as a
data source and enter any required credentials. Alternatively, the settings can be
preconfigured using the Customer Configuration file.

If AID credentials are entered, and a connection is not established within 10 seconds,
the internal GPS for the mobile device is used instead of the AID. GPS source is
identified for users from the GPS Status button on the FliteDeck Pro X toolbar.

NOTE: An updated version of the configuration file, Customer Configuration version


1.9, is required to support AIDs that are introduced with this release.

Managing options
Uploading company-specific data

Managing options
An operator can customize FliteDeck Pro X to meet operational needs and subscribe to various options that
can be integrated into FliteDeck Pro X.

• Uploading company-specific data


• Integrating with a flight planning system
• Displaying Airport Moving Map data
• Managing enroute weather data downloads
• Working with the Customer Configuration file

Uploading company-specific data


You can deliver company-specific data, such as company manuals, company terminal
charts, and tailored enroute data, to be used in FliteDeck Pro X.

Company manuals
Starting with FliteDeck Pro X, JDM Pro is used exclusively to upload and distribute
company manuals to FliteDeck Pro X. When you are uploading company manuals,
consider the following:

PDF titles
- FliteDeck Pro X displays the title of the document as it is identified in the
PDF Document Properties Title field.
File resolution
- Special consideration should be taken for large format documents, that is,
documents with page sizes larger than 11x17.

For more information on using JDM Pro to upload documents, see Appendix C:
Uploading company documents on page 59.

Company terminal charts


You can use either the Jeppesen Ground Controls application or the legacy applica-
tion, EFB Content Packager, to upload custom terminal charts for display in FliteDeck
Pro X. Both applications prepare data to be packaged and distributed through your
JDM Pro account.

To learn more about the Ground Controls application, contact your Jeppesen account
manager, or access the Ground Controls Customer Support Portal page.

13
Managing options
Uploading company-specific data

Tailored enroute data


Tailored Enroute is available to an operator to supplement Jeppesen aeronautical
data with company-specific enroute data.

NOTE: If your operator subscribes to Tailored Enroute Services, tailored enroute data
must be updated (j3n_ten_v02) with the FliteDeck Pro X 4.2 release.

As another option, you can use the Jeppesen Tailored Maps application to interact
directly with tailored enroute data. Jeppesen Tailored Maps is a web-based
application that can be accessed as a stand-alone application or from within the
Jeppesen Ground Controls application. Tailored enroute data that is created with
Tailored Maps is content that is specific to your operation. This content is independent
of Jeppesen production or revision cycles. To learn more about the Tailored Maps
application, contact your Jeppesen account manager or access the Tailored Maps
Customer Support Portal page.

About tailored enroute data


TT

Tailored enroute data can be fleet-specific and can include:

• Company Airports: Airports with supplemental company information are


shaded brown on the enroute map. Company airports that have emergency
services associated with them are shaded red. FliteDeck Pro X displays a
Company Info flyout that provides company information related to the airport.
Users can filter for this information from the map object filter menu.
• ETOPs rings: Customized data can specify fleet-specific ETOPs ring values on
the enroute map. Users can filter for this information from the map object filter
menu.
• Tailored boundaries: Shaded areas on the enroute map can depict the
boundaries of customized areas. Examples of these areas include no-fly zones
and mountain wave areas.
• Company communications: Supplemental communication frequencies for
certain areas provided by your company may also be shaded on the enroute
map.

Receiving tailored enroute data


Users can quickly identify whether they are receiving tailored enroute data by the
fleet designation on the FliteDeck Pro X toolbar. They can also identify whether
they are receiving tailored enroute data in the FliteDeck Pro X global settings
where the company name is listed in the Account Info >Tailored Enroute Data
field.

Managing options
Uploading company-specific data

Designating a fleet for tailored enroute data


The first time users launch FliteDeck Pro X after tailored enroute data has been
downloaded, they might need to identify the fleet for which the tailored enroute
data is used. Your operator defines fleets and creates their names.FliteDeck Pro X
preserves the fleet selection until the user changes it from within the app on the
toolbar or until the fleet is removed from the latest tailored enroute data set.

About enroute map filtering and company-specific controls


The following enroute map filters might be controlled by an operator. An operator
controls these by either subscribing to Tailored Enroute Services or by using the
Customer Configuration file.

• Airports
- Show Only ETOPs Airports—If provided with tailored enroute data, users
can filter the map to show only ETOPs airports.
- Show Only Company Airports—If provided with tailored enroute data, users
can filter the map to show only airports with company services and they can
further filter the enroute map by available company services.
- Show Airports at all Scales—If this is enabled in the Customer Configuration
file, users can customize their view to show airports at all scales regardless
of the map zoom level.
• Airways
- Users can filter to Show Organized Tracks in both IFR themes whenever
Display Organized Track Systems (OTS) is set to ON in FliteDeck Pro X
global settings. Operators can control this setting with the Customer Config-
uration file.

NOTE: If users do not select Show Organized Tracks and a track


ident is part of their route, the tracks and information outside of the
route are removed. The route and route points that identify the
track remain on the map.

• Waypoints
- Show Waypoints at all Scales—If this is enabled in the Customer Configura-
tion file, users can customize their view to Show Waypoints at all Scales
regardless of the map zoom level.
• Navaids
- Show Navaids at all Scales—If this is enabled in the Customer Configura-
tion file, users can customize their view to Show Navaids at all Scales
regardless of the map zoom level.
• Airspace
- If provided with tailored enroute data, users can filter to show or hide ETOPs
rings.

Customizing the data update policy


You can customize a data update policy for the delivery of terminal charts and Airway
Manual text. When you define a data update policy for terminal charts and Airway
Manuals, you specify the maximum grace period between the time the data becomes
available and when it is no longer current. The policy cannot exceed the maximum
grace period. The default grace period is 0 days, 23 hours.

 To customize the data update policy:

1. Identify the cycle that your Jeppesen tailored airway manual text or your tailored
(company-specific) terminal charts are distributed. Then, define your customized
grace period according to the follow criteria:
• If either are distributed on a weekly basis, use the weekly maximum grace
period.
• If either are not distributed on a weekly basis, use the biweekly maximum grace
period.
• If either are distributed on a monthly basis, use the monthly maximum grace
period.

Updates Maximum Grace Period


Weekly (7 days) 0 days, 0 hours to 6 days, 0 hours
Biweekly (14 days) 0 days, 0 hours to 7 days, 0 hours
Monthly (28 days) 0 days, 0 hours to 7 days, 0 hours

Integrating with a flight planning system

Integrating with a flight planning system


You can configure FliteDeck Pro X to retrieve flight plan routes by entering credentials
in global settings. When credentials are entered, FliteDeck Pro X takes the
credentials, passes them to the specified URL, and then returns flight plan routes to
FliteDeck Pro X.

Importing flight plan routes


Flight plan routes can be imported into FliteDeck Pro X from Jeppesen or
non-Jeppesen flight planning and briefing solutions.

FIGURE 6: Flight plan routes sent to FliteDeck Pro X

• Jeppesen flight planning solutions


When a flight plan is filed with ATC over the Aeronautical Fixed Telecommunication
Network (AFTN) using a Jeppesen flight planning solution, the flight plan route is
sent automatically to the Flite Crew Brief server where it is converted to ARINC
633 XML format so that it can be received by FliteDeck Pro X.
• Non-Jeppesen flight planning solutions
When a flight plan is filed with ATC over the AFTN using a non-Jeppesen flight
planning solution, the flight plan route is sent to the Jeppesen Flite Crew Brief
server when the flight plan is filed with a copy to Flite Crew Brief.”

NOTE: The aircraft call sign or registration and origin ETD are two values that are
important for viewing the flight plan route in FliteDeck Pro X. The aircraft call

sign is the flight plan search criteria in FliteDeck Pro X. The origin ETD is
important because it must be no further than six hours into the future. If it is
further than six hours into the future, FliteDeck Pro X does not display the flight
plan route.

• Briefing solutions
Both Jeppesen briefing apps, such as Aviator, and non-Jeppesen briefing apps
that have agreements with Jeppesen, can implement app-to-app flight plan data
sharing.

When a flight plan is published, the full briefing reaches the server and is then
converted to ARINC 633 XML format so that it is received by the briefing solution
and the route made available to FliteDeck Pro X.

Non-Jeppesen flight planning systems use an API to send flight briefings to the
server where they are ingested by Aviator and the route made available to
FliteDeck Pro X. Non-Jeppesen flight briefing must be sent to the server in ARINC
633 XML format.

Loading flight plans with a QR code


TT

If your operator uses QR coding to encode route information, users can load a route
by tapping a specially formatted URL or focusing their device camera on a QR code
with the URL embedded. For more information, contact your Jeppesen account
manager.

Displaying Airport Moving Map data

Displaying Airport Moving Map data


When an operator subscribes to Airport Moving Map (AMM), FliteDeck Pro X uses a
detailed database to dynamically render runways, taxiways, and airport structures.

NOTE: For operations that use AMM, FliteDeck Pro X 4.2 requires the download of
new AMM data (new content type: jds_sma_v01).

Airport Moving Map is not available for all airports. An operator can subscribe to as
many or few airports as required for their operation.

Controlling weather data downloads


The size of weather data downloads varies based on current conditions, the time of
day, the time of year, and length of route. Weather data is prioritized to download
along your route. Once that prioritized weather data is downloaded, however, weather
data also downloads for the view that is displayed. If viewing half the globe, for
example, that is what is downloaded. For operators with internet connection during
flight, this could significantly increase the amount of data downloaded.

Download weather data along the route only


When Download Wx Only Along the Route is set to ON in global settings, FliteDeck
Pro X limits the weather data to download only along the active route significantly
limiting the amount of data downloads.

NOTE: If an operator wants to preconfigure this setting, the Customer Configuration


file v1.9+ must be used to control for the Download Wx Only Along the
Route setting.

Enroute Weather - Auto Updates


Auto Update provides a way for users to view up-to-date weather in the app whenever
there is an internet connection without having to manually refresh. Users control this
from the Wx button from within the app.

*WSI uses radar from Japan and South Korea to cover this region.

Working with the Customer Configuration file


Using a Customer Configuration file you can define user settings, services, and
restrictions in FliteDeck Pro X according to operator requirements. Any global settings
that are preconfigured take effect when the user launches FliteDeck Pro X. Any
settings that are not preconfigured remain under user control. For more information on
the global settings that you can configure, see Appendix A: Global settings and
customer configuration on page 45.

You can author different configurations for use with different user groups within your
operation. For example, pilots who fly domestic routes might have a different configu-
ration from pilots who fly international routes.

Each configuration is packaged separately, given a title, and uploaded to JDM Pro
where the configuration is assigned to the proper distribution groups. Only one
Customer Configuration file can be assigned to a device.

In addition, operations that use different versions of FliteDeck Pro, for example,
FliteDeck Pro X and FliteDeck Pro for Windows, can combine the configurations into
one file.

NOTE: Different versions of FliteDeck Pro X might not have the same configuration
options. Options that do not pertain to a version of FliteDeck Pro are ignored.

Managing options
Working with the Customer Configuration file

NOTE: The Customer Configuration file must be updated to control for the new setting
(Download Wx Only Along the Route) or to connect with a newly supported
aircraft interface device (AID).

Creating and distributing the Customer Configuration file


You complete three steps to upload and distribute a customer configuration file to
FliteDeck Pro X.

Step 1 - Create a Customer Configuration file


Step 2 - Package the file
Step 3 - Upload the package to JDM Pro

Step 1 - Create a Customer Configuration file


There are several ways you can create a Customer Configuration file.

For JDM Pro Premium operators, you can use the customer configuration tool to
create a customer configuration file within JDM Pro. You access this tool from the
Content page of JDM Pro by selecting Add Content > Create.

For JDM Pro Essential operators, you can follow the steps below to create an XML
Customer Configuration file manually and then upload it to JDM Pro.

 To create the Customer Configuration file manually:

1. Using a plain text editor such as Notepad or TextEdit, create a configuration file
from the template provided in Appendix B: Customer Configuration file template.
2. Validate the structure and settings of your configuration file.

Note the following points:

• Aside from the version attribute, you can omit any item. Omitted items are
available on the device settings and remain under user control.
• Use either the word ON or OFF for bilevel elements. For example, a bilevel
element, such as <DisplayOwnshipApproach> is either switched ON or OFF.
• To tailor the configuration for different applications, you can associate any top-
level element with the version of the application. Top-level elements include
<ApplicationBehavior>, <Enroute>, <TerminalCharts>, <Weather>, and
<Services>. Non-associated elements are used for all versions.
• Operations that use different versions of FliteDeck Pro, for example, FliteDeck
Pro X and FliteDeck Pro for Windows, can combine the configurations into one
file. For more about the settings in this file, see Appendix A: Global settings and
customer configuration on page 45.
• The version attribute appears at the top of the configuration file. Changing this
number in your configuration file has no effect in FliteDeck Pro X. The number
is intended to indicate the version of the XML schema the file is using.
3. Save the XML file.

Managing options
Working with the Customer Configuration file

Step 2 - Package the file


The next step is to compress (zip) the Customer Configuration file and create a
package for JDM Pro.

 To create a zip file:

1. Select the configuration file.


2. Do one of the following actions:
• On a Windows PC, right-click and select Send To, and then select
Compressed (zipped) folder.
• On a Mac, select File and then select Compress <filename>.
This action produces a .zip file called CustomerConfiguration.zip.

NOTE: For Mac users: macOS generates hidden resource files when creating a
.zip file, which might cause errors when you upload it to JDM Pro. Make
sure that you include only one file in each ZIP file. Instead of right-clicking
and using the Compress function, you can use the zip command at the
macOS Terminal command line.

Step 3 - Upload the package to JDM Pro


After you create and package the file, upload it to JDM Pro.

If the file lacks the proper metadata, JDM Pro guides you through the process of
creating the metadata. The only specified selection is the Content Type, which must
be set to FDPro_Customer_Config.

NOTE: Jeppesen recommends that you use a browser that supports HTML5. If you
use a browser that does not support HTML5, JDM Pro cannot compute the
MD5 value for the file during the upload process and create the ADEL
metadata file.

 To upload the package:

1. Log in to JDM Pro.


2. From the Content page, select Add Content.
JDM Pro displays the Select a File box.
3. Select Browse.
4. Navigate to the ZIP file that you want to import, select it, and select Open.
5. Select OK.

JDM Pro uploads the file, runs a virus check on the content, and then displays the
Content Metadata box.

Managing options
Working with the Customer Configuration file

FIGURE 9: JDM Pro Content Metadata box

6. For Content Type, select the FDPro_Customer_Config.


7. In the Title box, do one of these actions:

- If this is the first time that you are uploading this file, enter a name for the
content.
- If this is a new version of the file that you have already uploaded, make sure
to use the same title as the previous version. By doing this, the updated
document follows the existing distribution rule in JDM Pro.
8. Enter a version number for the document:
- If this is a new file, create a version number.
- If this is a new version of a file that you have already uploaded, create a
version number based on the previous one. JDM Pro indicates the previous
version number in the Content Metadata box.
9. If you want recipients to download and use the content when it becomes available,
select the Deliver Immediately check box.

NOTE: When you select Deliver Immediately for content that is delivered to
FliteDeck Pro X, FliteDeck Pro X notifies the user when the new content is
available.

10.Click Continue.
JDM Pro uploads the file and adds the content item to the Content list.
If you are uploading a document that you have not uploaded before, assign that
content to a distribution group. If you do not assign the content to a distribution
group, JDM Pro cannot send the document to recipients.

NOTE: For more information on managing and delivering content with JDM Pro, log in
to the JDM Pro Jeppesen Customer Support Portal and access the JDM Pro
Application Administrator Guide.

technical support. All recipients will show Error 3120 for up to 5 minutes after the recipient
is created. This happens because it takes some time for JDM Pro to
calculate all the current versions of all content assigned. If you see this
error on a newly created recipient, you only need to wait a couple
minutes and try again.

If the error appears in any other scenario besides a brand new recipient,
the resolution is:
1) Ask the user to deactivate the device (in FliteDeck Pro global
settings); and
2) The user clicks the activation link in their registration email to re-
register the device and redownload content.

There are several different things that might cause this issue:
• FliteDeck Pro X is designed to work on a single device per recipient,
however, that recipient can register multiple times with the same link.
Each time the recipient registers a new device, the previously
registered device can no longer update and reports error 3120.
Sometimes, a recipient may forward their link to a personal device to
use as a back-up. It will appear to work, but when it comes time for
the next data update the first device will fail and report this error
code.
• FliteDeck Pro X uses the iOS Advertising Identifier to uniquely
identify a recipient's valid device to prevent unauthorized access of
aviation data. If the user changes the iOS Privacy feature Limit Ad
Tracking, it causes this identifier to change or be masked, which in
turn, appears to JDM Pro as an unauthorized device that causes the
Error 3120 to appear. This will not be apparent until it is time for a
content update so the recipient may not remember changing the
setting at the point the error appears. Changing the setting back to
its original value may not resolve the error.
• If a recipient changes their device or changes their iCloud settings or
iCloud account, this error might display.
• Improperly registering another app on the device, such as Aviator,
after FliteDeck Pro X is already activated. The recommended way to
activate more Jeppesen or Boeing apps after one is already
activated on the device is to use the Share Registration feature.
Registering subsequent apps using the registration link instead of
Share Registration causes this error in all Boeing or Jeppesen apps.

Appendix C: Uploading company documents

Appendix C: Uploading company documents


This appendix presents the procedure for uploading company documents using JDM Pro.

Step 1: Define the title to be displayed in FliteDeck Pro X

 To define the PDF title:

1. Open the PDF document in Adobe Acrobat.


2. Select File > Properties.
3. Select the Description tab to view the metadata in the document.

FIGURE 12: Adobe Acrobat - File > Properties > Description tab

4. Modify the Title field to add or change the title entry.

NOTE: FliteDeck Pro X displays the title as it is identified here in the PDF Document
Properties field.

FliteDeck Pro X does not display the title as identified in the JDM Pro
metadata. Since this title is not associated with the JDM Pro metadata or the
distribution rules associated with that data, you can enter any document title
here without concern for revising associated JDM Pro distribution rules.

Step 2: Package the Document


The next step is to package each company document into a .ZIP file and create a
package for JDM Pro.

NOTE: For Mac users, macOS generates hidden resource files when creating a .ZIP
file, which might cause errors when you upload it to JDM Pro. Make sure that
you include only one file in each .ZIP file.

 To create a ZIP file:

1. Select the configuration file.


2. Do one of the following actions:
• On a Windows PC, right-click and select Send To, and then select
Compressed (zipped) folder.
• On a Mac, right-click on the file and select Compress Items.

59
Appendix C: Uploading company documents

NOTE: For Mac users, to ensure that you include only one file in each .ZIP file,
instead of right-clicking and using the Compress function, you can use the ZIP
command at the macOS Terminal command line.

Step 3: Upload the Package


After you create and package the content into a .ZIP file, you can upload it to JDM
Pro.

If the .ZIP file that you want to import does not have the appropriate metadata, JDM
Pro guides you through the process of creating it. You can also use JDM Pro to modify
the metadata.

NOTE: Jeppesen recommends that you use a browser that supports HTML5. If you
use a browser that does not support HTML5, JDM Pro cannot compute the
MD5 digest value for the file that you upload. In this instance, enter an
appropriate MD5 value for the file during the upload process and create the
ADEL metadata file.

 To upload a company manual:

1. Log into JDM Pro.


2. From the Content page, click Add Content. JDM Pro displays the Select a File
box.
3. Select Browse.
4. Navigate to the .ZIP file that you want to import, select it, and select Open.
5. Select OK.

JDM Pro uploads the file, runs a virus check on the content, and then displays the
Content Metadata box.

FIGURE 13: JDM Pro Content Metadata box

6. Add metadata information in each field. The following fields are required:
• For Content Type, select the appropriate type from the drop-down menu. Since
you are uploading a company document, select ETEXT. (If you are uploading a

Appendix C: Uploading company documents

company chart, you would select CICCharts).

• In the Title box, do one of the following steps:


- If the file is one that you have never uploaded, enter a name for the content.
- If the file is a new version of content that you have already uploaded, select
the appropriate title.

• Enter a version number for the document:


- If this is a new document, create a version number.
- If this is a new version of content that you have already uploaded, create a
version number based on the previous one. JDM Pro indicates the previous
version number in the Content Metadata box.

7. If you want recipients to be able to download the document immediately after it


becomes available, select the Deliver Immediately check box.

NOTE: If you select Deliver Immediately for content being delivered to FliteDeck Pro
X, FliteDeck Pro X notifies the user when the new content is available.

8. Select Continue.
JDM Pro uploads the file and adds the content item to the Content list.
If you are uploading a document that you have not uploaded before, assign that
content to a distribution group. If you do not assign the content to a distribution
group, JDM Pro cannot send the document to recipients.

NOTE: For more information on managing and delivering content using JDM Pro, log
in to the JDM Pro Customer Support Portal page to access the JDM Pro
Application Administrator Guide.
