ITEMS MAILED OUT

You will receive an invoice via email at the email address provided at the time that your order is placed. Please note that we do not accept credit cards as payment for PONDS 3.3 at this time. The invoice can be returned with a check as payment.

You will be charged the $35 shipping fee if you require a hardlock. (You will require a hardlock if the computer you are going to use with PONDS 3.3 is not connected to the internet.) The hardlock option is not available for Windows 11 computers. You will be using the web authorized version for Windows 11 machines or other machines connected to the internet.

You will be charged a one-time activation fee of $35 for the web authorized version.

Please note that the license purchased is only valid for the original installation and additional licenses for other users/computers will be required.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

The PONDS 3.3 installation files can be downloaded at the Devo Engineering website. Users should download the following file from the Software Downloads section of the website:

PONDS33.zip

Unzip the program and run the PONDS 3.3 Application Suite program. If you are replacing on older version of PONDS 3.3 or are switching from the hardlock version to the web authorization version, then you should use the Remove function of the installer prior to installing the new version. Once you have installed the new version, if you are not using a hardlock, then you can delete the (for hardware lock) shortcut from the desktop and use the (for web authorization) version instead. The opposite is true if you are using the web authorized version instead of a physical hardlock. The first time you run the web authorized version, you will see a DOS window pop up that will display a code. You will need to call us at (407)-290-2371 (or email us at support@devoeng.com) to get the program authorized. Once it has been authorized for the first time, you will not need to do this again.

Please note that if you are using a physical hardlock then you will also need to run the HASPUSERSETUP.EXE file PRIOR to inserting the hardlock into your USB port. If you insert the hardlock prior to installing the HASP drivers, Windows will install a generic driver that will interfere with the proper operation of the hardlock. You do not need to run the HASPUSERSETUP.EXE if you are using the web authorized version.

Note To Existing PONDS 3.2 Users

Existing PONDS 3.2 users have the option of upgrading to PONDS 3.3, PONDS 3.2 is no longer supported.

Windows HTML Help

Some of the help files for PONDS utilize the Windows HTML Help Engine. Microsoft is no longer including this help format in recent releases of Windows (such as Windows Vista), but it can be installed as an add-on. You can download the installation file for the Windows HTML Help Engine (HTMLHELP.exe) in the software downloads section of our website, or visit www.microsoft.com.
