How to Setup a Feed for WebCalendar

This page explains how to configure the SnoopSoft WebCalendar module to access a Google Calendar feed from the Internet. SnoopSoft has tried to simplify this process by providing a tool that can run on a regular Windows PC and export the settings to the device where they can then be imported into the WebCalendar.

For Private Calendars, the private "feed url" needs to be located and copy and pasted into the WebCalendar configuration. When using the WebCalExport.exe program, make sure that the device is connected to the PC before running the program.
