There are two ways to get to the manual. If you accepted the default 
installation options, there should be a "FEMM Manual" entry in the Femm part 
of your windows Start menu. Alternatively, you can get to it by choosing 
Help:Help Topics off of the main menu of either the pre- or post-processor. 
Note that the manual is a pdf document, so you need Adobe's free Acrobat 
Reader installed to view it (go to 
http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep.html to download it, if you 
don't have it).

The section of the user manual that talks about the eddy current problem 
formulation is section 2.1.2
