Data Pro 5
2.
Are You Installing Data Pro to Multiple Palm OS devices?
If you have more than one Palm device on which you are installing Data Pro software,
follow the same directions as outlined in the previous section. It is important to have
previously performed a HotSync with each of the Palm devices before running the Data
Pro installer—the HotSync ensures that a user’s folder is created for each of the devices.
When installing Data Pro, a Data Pro folder is created in each of the Palm User folders on
that computer; this way, as you do a HotSync for each Palm device, Data Pro will be
transferred to that Palm device, one at a time.
As an alternative to performing a HotSync with each device, you may beam the necessary
files from one device to another. To do this, however, you must have installed a beaming
utility such as Filez, available from www.palmgear.com, on the sending Palm OS device.
Install Filez, and then beam the following files to the receiving device:
Data Pro
DPsLkUp
DPStrings
Match Pro
MathLib
For Dana users, in addition to the previous five files, you will need to beam the following:
UsbBusDriver.PRC
vUSBLabProDriver.PRC
vUSBPrintDriver.PRC
CONNECT THE EQUIPMENT
Palm Handheld and pouch
1. Insert the bottom end of the LabPro into the top opening of the pouch.
2. Insert the large end of the cable into the lower end of the Palm handheld until it is firmly
in place.
3. Slide the bottom of the Palm handheld into the transparent pocket of the pouch and pull
the elastic band over the top edge of the Palm handheld.
4. Plug the small end of the cable (the serial connector) into the serial socket on the right
side of the LabPro unit.
Palm Handheld and cradle
1. Obtain the black plastic cradle included in this package. Locate the two grooves on either
side of your LabPro interface. Starting at the lower end of the LabPro (with the Vernier
logo), slide the Palm cradle in the grooves of the LabPro until it locks into place.
2. Obtain the Palm-to-LabPro cable included in this package. Insert the flat end of the cable
into the lower end of the Palm handheld until it is firmly in place.
3. Insert the upper end of the Palm handheld under the upper end of the cradle, then press the
lower end of the handheld into the lower end of the cradle, so it fits under the four
latches on the cradle.
4. Plug the small round end of the cable (the serial connector) into the serial socket on the
right side of the LabPro unit .
