Overview

ADVANTECHCommercial Laundry Products

Whirlpool® ADVANTECHcommercial laundry products allows the use of a Palmhandheld device, also referred to as a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), for washer and dryer installation, setup, setting special vend prices, washer and dryer software upgrades, and transferring data to and from a personal computer (PC). This information is setup on the PC using ADVANTECHManagement Software, which is then used to download ADVANTECHHandheld Software to the Palmhandheld. The Palmhandheld uses an infrared light beam to communicate information contained in the Management Software to the washer and dryer. See Information Flowchart on page 3.

Before downloading the Handheld Software to a PDA device running the Palmoperating system, ADVANTECHManagement Software must be installed and running on your PC. Passwords, machine setup, and Handheld Software are available within the Management Software package. This software instruction manual details the initial setup of the ADVANTECHManagement and Handheld Software and its use with the PC, the Palmhandheld (or other PDA), and the ADVANTECHcommercial laundry products.

It is assumed that you are familiar with the basic operation and use of the Palmhandheld and the PC, and that you have followed all installation instructions that came with the Palmhandheld for the setup of the Palmsoftware, including the HotSync® Manager, and its cradle. See the Palm owner’s manual for more information. Setup of the Palmsoftware and a successful HotSync® between the PDA & the PC should be accomplished prior to the installation of the ADVANTECHManagement Software onto the PC.
