Downloading and installing the Service Link

The Service Link is a small software programme which we use to upload and download
information to and from devices. You must install this software on your PC to upload and
download your devices.

After you have logged into your

Activ8rlives

account, go to the

HELP

link at the top of each

page.

There you will find a page with the latest version of our Instruction booklets, the latest versions
of the Service Link software and details about where to contact us for support and help.

If you find the installation process difficult, do call us during office hours (9am—6pm) on UK
+44(0)1480 352 821 and we can help you over the telephone and by logging into your
computer using TeamViewer.
