Introduction
The TopSky plugin is based on Thales Group's ATM system of the same name. It is a comprehensive package including:
- Custom tag items and functions, windows and menus
- Safety nets (AIW, APW, MSAW and STCA)
- MTCD and SAP
- Hoppie CPDLC integration
- Weather radar overlay
- ...and a lot more
Due to the number of features, some study of the documentation is required, especially for people creating new setups as some plugin features require setting up data files to work properly.

Package contents
In addition to the plugin dll, the package contains the user and developer documentation, cursor and sound files, and some data files that can be used with any setup.
Note: The ICAO_*.txt data files may need to be edited to reflect your setup as they only contain a relative path to the target data file. Instead of pointing to another file, the files can also be set up to contain the actual data.
Setup
To create a new setup, refer to the Developer Guide for information on the required and recommended EuroScope settings, the most important plugin settings and the various plugin data files.
To update an existing setup, overwrite the old files with the new ones - see also the above note about editing the data files.
For users of prepared setups, it is recommended to wait for the whole setup to be updated to support the new plugin version.
