3. Browse to the folder on the handheld. Tap and hold the installation setup file and
then select Run.
4. If prompted after installation, perform a soft reset of the handheld.
To install software that is provided on a CD, or as an installation setup that runs on an PC:
1. Connect the handheld to a PC.
2. If the software is provided on a CD, insert the software CD into the PC.
3. Run the installation setup.
4. If prompted, select the install option for a device powered by a Windows Mobile
operating system. Once the software is installed on the computer it is automatically
transferred to the handheld.
Note:
If a storage card is inserted in the handheld, the card appears as an installation
location option. STONEX recommends that you install software to the handheld’s internal
storage, not to a storage card. If you install software to a card and then remove the card
from the handheld, the software will not be available for use.
5. If prompted after installation, perform a soft reset of the handheld.
