Chapter 2 Preliminary Setup
This chapter explains the first four steps of DPC setup, which are done similarly for all mobile computer categories. After completing the steps covered in this chapter, complete DPC setup by going to the chapter designated for your specific mobile computer category.
The four steps covered in this chapter include:
•Registering your card
•Activating data service for your mobile phone
•Network Information Form
•Uninstalling old Socket DPC software
STEP 1: Register the Card
Register your DPC online at www.socketcom.com/product/prodreg.htm.
You can also use the product registration form included in your DPC package.
STEP 2: Activate Mobile Phone Data Service
Some mobile phone carriers activate data service only when requested and may charge small fees. If necessary, ask your phone carrier for this feature.
Important!
If data service is not activated for your mobile
phone, then you will not be able to use your phone for any data connections!
