Step 6: Enter the calendar's address

iPhone configuration

Add the calendar's address. Your iPhone will fetch the calendar from here and check back periodically when there are changes. If that is hard to read, here it is in text: http://www.flame.org/pennsic39.ics

Step 7: Save!

iPhone configuration

After a few moments, you will see confirmation that the calendar location is correct and your iPhone is happy. If you do not see this, or get an error instead, you likely typed the address incorrectly, or are not connected to the network. Try turning off WiFi and using the network to fetch it, or turning WiFi on if it was off. Or just try agian later.

Step 8: Classes!

iPhone configuration

Press the home button and fire up the Calendar application. Go to a day there will be classes, click "list" view, and have a peek! Remember this is a rather large file so may take some time to fully load.
