5.Connect the USB Cable / Cradle and Charge the Main Battery

Connect the USB connector to an available USB port on the back of your PC.

The cable on the power supply connects to the rear of the USB connector or cradle.

Plug one end of the power cable into the black power supply box. Plug the other end of the power cable into an AC outlet.

Plug the other end of the USB cable into the bottom of the WPA206 unit. It will only fit into the slot one way. If it does not go in easily, turn the cable over and try again.

After connecting all the cables, the unit will begin charging. The battery is charged when the red LED on the top front of the unit turns green. You may use the unit while plugged in but charge the unit for at least 16 hours before mobile use.

(The LED on the power supply is always green when powered.)

6. Power on the WPA206

Press the power key to turn on the WPA206. (To turn the unit off, press and hold the power key for about one second.)

After powering on the unit, follow the WPA206 onscreen prompts to set up the unit and set the time zone. The correct time zone is very important. Based on the time zone you set, the date and time will be synced with the PC each time the unit is connected and synced.

7. Install ActiveSync software

Using the included Microsoft ActiveSync CD, install ActiveSync. Follow the onscreen prompts in the installer.

If you purchased any integrated Wasp software, you should install that software after ActiveSync is installed.

8. Other Accessories and Parts

Other accessories and parts that come with this unit include an extra stylus, PCMCIA pull tape, and a CF card holder.

The PCMCIA slot is in the top compartment on the back of the unit. Before inserting a PCMCIA card, attach a strip of the pull tape to the end of the card so that it will stick out of the slot. This will allow you to remove the card by pulling the tape.

The CF card slot is in the battery compartment. The battery and a small snap on cover behind the battery must be removed to access the slot. Attach the CF card to the supplied holder and slide it into the memory slot. The holder will allow you to properly install and remove the card.
