Sprint Nextel 550 manual To insert the PCS Connection Card into a Handheld PC

To insert the PCS Connection Card into a Handheld PC:

1.Attach the antenna to the circular copper connector on the end of the

card. DO NOT FORCE.

2.With the Sprint label facing towards the top of the Handheld PC, insert the network card into the slot.

The card is powered as soon as you insert it.

Removing the PCS Connection Card

▶Use the ejector to release the card and remove it from the slot.

Note: On Pocket PCs, anytime you eject and re-insert the PCS Connection Card, restart your PC by turning it off and on again. This step is necessary to ensure the communication port detects the card.

Activating Your PCS Connection Card

The final step to making the PCS Connection Card operational is configuring it to use your account.

Tip: For an overview of account activation and configuration, see "Activating and Using PCS Service" on page 12.

If you purchased a pre-activated PCS Connection Card, this step is not necessary. Once the application software and driver are installed, the card is ready for use.

Otherwise, you must use the Sprint Activation Wizard to activate and configure your account. Future releases of the PCS Connection Manager Software will allow for both Manual and Voice-Assisted Activation, but only Manual Activation is available in this release. Manual Activation involves phoning PCS Customer Service Solutions, exchanging information and entering your account information into the appropriate fields in the wizard. You require a separate phone to use this method.
