elmPPC Software

elmPPC is a simple to understand system and enables users to be up and running quickly, producing energy reports on the move. It is free of charge and is only available to Elmhurst Accredited DEAs in England, Wales and Northern Ireland and to those DEAs who are members of the Elmhurst Scottish Protocol.

elmPPC allows DEAs to undertake RdSAP calculations whilst on the move; it is user friendly and has the same look and feel as the RdSAP software currently available in the Elmhurst Members Area.

Specifications for Pocket PCs
elm PPC is not restricted to any specific Pocket PCs, this should enable DEAs to choose hardware of their own choice that works for their own business requirements. Please note: The initial release of elmPPC currently only operates on Windows Mobile CE 6.0 or later versions. elmPPC is designed to be used with the majority of Pocket PCs currently on the market, please find below both a minimum and recommended specification list (if unsure, please contact your hardware literature or manufacturer). Elmhurst is working hard on backwards compatibility to successfully work on older operating systems e.g. Windows Mobile CE 5.0. We will contact all energy assessors as soon as this is ready.
