PalmOS®-based Devices (PalmSource Mobile Platform)
Once the installation of the Covers
Wireless
PC software is complete, a manual hot-sync will be required between the
PalmOS® device and desktop/notebook PC while connected by cradle/cable (serial/USB). The synchronization installs
component software for Covers
Wireless
on the mobile device.
A subsequent hot-sync between the PalmOS®
device and desktop/notebook PC will be required to install the Covers Wireless database (see screenshot
below) so that future offline viewing can occur
. For instructions on synchronization, please refer to the PalmOS®
device manual or manufacturer website. The filesize for the additional installation to the PalmOS®-based device is
400k
.

The end user is alerted to perform an additional (manual) hot-sync to transfer the Covers Wireless database to allow
future data to be stored for offline viewing.
