Starting your console for the first time

The first time you start your Zodiac console, setup instructions appear on the screen. These instructions guide you through calibrating the touch-screen (also called the digitizer) and the analog controller.

1.Press the Power button .

2.Follow the onscreen instructions, tapping the screen and moving the analog controller where indicated.

Palm Desktop software

Palm Desktop software includes many of the same applications as your Zodiac console: Photos, Music, Address Book, Date Book, To Do List, and Memo Pad. You can use the HotSync feature of this software to load, exchange, and backup files between your console and your computer.

It’s a good idea to back up your files in case something happens to the data on your Zodiac console. Changes you make on your Zodiac console or Palm Desktop software appear in both places after you synchronize.

Using the Palm Desktop software, you can do the following:

•Work with your Zodiac console applications on your computer to view, enter, and modify files stored on your console.

•Back up the files stored on your console with HotSync technology and synchronize the files in your Palm Desktop software. Synchronization is a one-step procedure that ensures your data is always safe and up-to- date. See page 144 for more information.

•Load compatible files and applications onto your console from your computer.

•Import and export data, so you can easily transfer data from other desktop applications into selected applications. See page 41 for more information.

•Print your Date Book, Address Book, To Do List, and Memo Pad information on any printer.
