Section 1C: Installing the Sprint PCS Connection Card
Getting Started
Before you can use your new Sprint PCS Connection Card, you
must first:
1. Install the Sprint PCS Connection Manager
SM
Software,
located on the installation CD, onto your computer.
Note:
Before installing your new software, delete or uninstall any
previously existing modem or dialer software from your system. Do not
insert the Sprint PCS Connection Card into the slot until you have
installed the Sprint PCS Connection Manager Software onto your PC or
until instructed to do so by the installation CD.
2. Insert the card into your computer’s PC Card slot (Sprint
label facing up). Windows will detect the card and
automatically install the necessary card drivers.
Tip:
A driver is software that forms the interface between a device (such
as the Sprint PCS Connection Card) and the operating system on your PC.
3. Launch the Sprint PCS Connection Manager Software
application.
4. Activate your Sprint PCS Connection Card and Account,
unless it was pre-activated. If your card has not
previously been activated, the Activation Wizard will
automatically launch and guide you through the
process.
