Installing the software on the host

1.If the AirCard installation CD is not in your CD-ROM drive, insert it. The CD should auto-start and display a menu.

·If the CD does not auto-start, select Start > Run and enter d:\launch.exe where d is the drive letter of your CD-ROM drive.

2.From the CD start-up menu, select:

·Pocket PC 2002 installation and documentation and then Pocket PC 2002 software installation (if you have a Pocket PC running Windows CE 3.0 Pocket PC 2002)

This launches the InstallShield Wizard that installs the soft- ware to the host.

3.Use the Next and Back buttons to navigate through the wizard.

·Using the default settings for the Destination Location and Program Folder is recommended unless you have special requirements and an advanced understanding of PC configuration.

·A dialog box displays this message, “On the next mobile device connection, the installed applications will be downloaded to the device.” Click OK.

·Use the exit option in the lower right corner of the window to close the CD start-up menu.
