Using the Explore option in the ActiveSync window
on your PC, you can add new programs to your
SPV C500 at any time. Once you start
synchronising your SPV C500 and your PC, you
can add and remove programs as you please.
To add a new program by synchronisation, the file
must be compatible with your SPV C500. There are
three types of program files for your SPV C500.
Compressed files, usually with the extension
.cab, will install once you have copied them to
your SPV C500.
Installer files are run from your PC while
ActiveSync is operating. The file is unpacked
and its components copied to the relevant parts
of your SPV C500.
Non-installer files written for the SPV C500 will
not work on your PC and must be copied to
your SPV C500 using the Explore option in
ActiveSync.
