for different device types and processors.)
2. Read any installation instructions, Read Me files, or documentation that comes with the program.
Many programs provide special installation instructions.
3. Connect the terminal to the workstation via a Handy Terminal communication peripheral.

stored on the host workstation and transferred to the terminal via ActiveSync Explore.
