To send/receive information with your Cloud Sync portal via cloud synchronization you need to enter your Cloud Sync account credentials. Login to http://logbookpro.com/sync (create an account if necessary on right side of login screen) and you'll see your Account ID and Username at the top. Enter this information carefully in the top section as shown in the figure above (left) or if prompted (right). You can leave the preferences to the defaults at this point and return to the Home Screen by pressing the device's back button and then tap "Sync" to receive the information from Logbook Pro PC edition and initialize your app. If you change your sync credentials such as another user using your app be sure to purge data from the Home Screen menu after changing sync credentials.
Preferences:
Sync on Start:
When the app starts or resumes after 10 minutes of non-use, assuming an Internet connection is available, Logbook Pro will sync with the cloud. Sync takes typically less than 10 seconds.
Sync Pending Flights:
The default option is not to sync Pending Flights, i.e. flights not yet flown. However, for airline pilots, etc. that may need their FAR 121/135 reports updated to reflect future flying to check limits syncing pending flights may be of value. Check to allow pending flights to be synced. Note: As Logbook Pro PC edition reviews your flight log for erroneous entries, i.e. a row of information that does not meet the minimum required fields of Date, Type, Ident, Route, and Duration (or SIM) pending flight data could be auto purged on the PC side. If you enable Sync Pending Flights you should go into Logbook Pro PC edition's Options/Flight Log area and clear the bottom most checkbox.
Purge Synced Data:
As data on the device serves no value, device reports do not use it, data can be removed once sent to the Cloud Sync portal awaiting synchronization to Logbook Pro PC edition. To automatically remove data after it has been synchronized enable this option. You can purge synced data by tapping the trash can button from the menu of each data area.
Sync in GMT (Zulu):
Logbook Pro stores all dates/times in GMT. When syncing to the Cloud Sync portal to send data back to Logbook Pro PC edition you can choose whether you want to send the data in GMT or the current local time zone of the device. The default is GMT checked.
