2 2: Getting Started
• The Compass 597
software
• Account activation and
configuration
Before you can begin using the Compass USB modem, you
must:
1. Insert the Compass USB modem, to install the enabling
software and drivers.
2. Activate an account and configure the Compass USB
modem to use your account (unless the Compass USB
modem has been pre ‐ activated).
This section provides an overview of this process.
The Compass 597 software
The Compass USB modem comes with the following software:
• Watcher application that you use to manage the
Compass USB modem and monitor your connections
• The driver software that provides the interface between
the Compass USB modem and your Windows operating
system
Detailed instructions for installing the Compass USB modem
and its software are provided in “Installation” on page 17.
Account activation and
configuration
To use the Compass USB modem, you must have an account
with a CDMA service provider. The process of setting up an
account is called activation .
If you purchased the Compass USB modem directly from a
service provider, you may already have an account; your
Compass USB modem may be pre ‐ activated.
Otherwise, run Watcher and the Activation Wizard, which
guides you through the activation and configuration process.
(Depending on your configuration, Watcher and the Activation
Wizard may start automatically.)
