Overview of the Minstrel S Software
In order for you to easily configure and operate your Minstrel S, there are two main software pro-
grams included with the Minstrel S modem. These programs, which are described below, are
already installed on the flash memory of the unit.
Setup Wizard
The Setup Wizard utility is designed to guide you step-by-step through the setup of your Minstrel
S. Once you have a Wireless IP account established with a network provider, you can use the
Setup Wizard to enter and save the necessary settings to the Minstrel S modem and configure
your Visor for use with the Minstrel S. For more information about this program and the configura-
tion process refer to the Setup Wizard section of this document.
Modem Manager
The Modem Manager software provides you with complete status information about the Minstrel S
and control over its connection to the Wireless IP network. It also contains screens for more
advanced users to configure their modem without the use of Setup Wizard. For more information
about this program and its many features, refer to the Modem Manager section of this document.
