      <p>In addition, any PKG file added here is picked up by the <a href="../../projects/launch/page_installation.htm">Installation</a> tab in Application TRK configurations. However, as only one SIS file can be debugged at a time you must specify which SIS/PKG file to install for debugging purposes. This is handy if you have both a developer SIS file and a certified SIS file that you want to remain in sync during development. Both are always built but you only need to debug one. </p>

<p>For phones that utilize OS 9.x, all SIS files must be signed before being installed on a device. You can specify your certificate and key pair file in the SIS Builder pane. By default, if no certificate/key pair is defined, temporary ones will be created in the build directory. This is a process called self-signing. However, not all devices allow self-signed applications to be installed. For information on obtaining certificate and key pairs for your development please visit <a href="https://www.symbiansigned.com">https://www.symbiansigned.com</a>.</p>
