Setup the InterWrite Model 400 Pad

The MeetingPad 400 and SchoolPad 400 communicate with the com-
puter using Bluetooth wireless technology. The Bluetooth communica-
tions device is built into the Model 400 Pads. The Pad communicates with
a Bluetooth device – either an Ezurio USB Adapter, or Ezurio PC Card –
installed on the computer. The Pad runs on Nickel Metal Hydride
batteries, which provide about 40 hours of wireless operation before they
have to be recharged.
The Model 400 package includes the InterWrite Pad (MeetingPad 400, or
SchoolPad 400) and the rechargeable, electronic InterWrite Pen, a Pen
tether, pad charger, and an InterWrite CD. Optional components include
an Ezurio USB Adapter, or Ezurio PC Card, and the Bluetooth CD.
The first thing you should do when you unpack your new
Pad and Pen is charge them.
Before you use the Pad and the Pen for the first time, they should be
charged for about three hours, or until the Pad Battery Status Light goes
off. Plug the pad charger into the Power Jack. The Pad Battery Status
Light will flash slowly when the Pad battery is low and needs to be
recharged. The On/Off Power Switch turns on the charged Pad.
The three indented buttons at the top left corner above the Pad Work-
space are the Sleep/Wake Button, the Connect Button, and the Discon-
nect Button. The Sleep/Wake Button is a toggle that puts the Pad into
Sleep Mode, or wakes it from Sleep Mode. The Connect Button wakes
up the Pad, if it is in Sleep Mode, and tries to connect or reconnect a
discovered Pad. The Disconnect Button disconnects the Pad. The
buttons and status lights are described in more detail in the Operating
the InterWrite Model 400 Pad section beginning on page 18.
