1. Insert the installation software CD into your PC’s CD
drive. The following window displays.
Select the installation software that is compatible with
your mobile device system software; either Windows
Mobile 5.0 or Windows Pocket PC 2003. (This
example shows a Pocket PC 2003 installation,
however a Windows Mobile 5.0 installation is almost
identical.)

connect to is not on the
list, move to another
location and try again.
