Getting Started
Since software cannot be installed directly to a Pocket PC, you will need a
desktop or notebook computer to function as a "host." The installation,
activation and configuration process follows these steps:
Connect the battery pack to the PCS Connection Card. (When using
1.
the PCS Connection Card with a Pocket PC, you must connect the
battery pack; if not, fatal damage may occur to the Pocket PC.)
Install the software to the host.
2.
Connect the Pocket PC to the host and download the software from
3.
the host to the Pocket PC. (You can connect the Pocket PC to the host
before or after you install the software to the host.)
If the card has not been pre-activated, use the Sprint Activation
4.
Wizard to configure the card.
Before you begin the installation, ensure you have the necessary
hardware, software, and system resources described in the next section.
