Follow these easy steps to get started using your SmartPad and InkNote
Manager software. Refer to the User’s Guide on the CD-ROM for more
information.

1. Install the Software

Before you install InkNote Manager, review the system requirements in the
Readme.txt file or in the User’s Guide (UsersGuide.pdf). Both files are on
the CD-ROM.

• To use SmartPad with a Palm OS handheld, Palm HotSync Manager ver-

sion 3.0.1 or later (part of Palm Desktop) must be working. To confirm
that HotSync is installed and running properly, put your Palm OS hand­held in the cradle or connect the cable and press the HotSync button on
the cradle or cable.

• To use SmartPad with a Pocket PC device, Microsoft ActiveSync (ver-

sion 3.1 or later) must be operating and have an active partnership with
your Pocket PC. The words “Connected” and “Synchronized” must
appear in the ActiveSync window. In addition, it must be configured to
synchronize “Files.” If these conditions are not met, refer to the docu­mentation you received with your Pocket PC device to get ActiveSync
working.

To install InkNote Manager:

1. Connect your handheld and desktop computer using a cradle, cable, or

infrared connection.

2. Insert the software CD-ROM in your computer’s CD drive. The setup

program starts automatically.

3. Follow the on-screen instructions.

4. The first time you start InkNote Manager on your handheld you will be

asked to choose the pen hardware you are using. Tap SmartPad, then tap
OK.

If you have a previous version of InkNote Manager, the setup program will
uninstall it. Once it has been uninstalled, restart Setup by following the pro­cedure below.

If the setup program doesn’t start automatically:

1. On your desktop computer, click Start , Run.

2. In the Open box, type d:\setup (replace d with the drive letter of your CD

drive) and then click OK.

Alternatively, double-click My Computer, double-click the icon for your
CD drive, and then double-click Setup.exe.

Setup Tips

• During setup you might be asked for the hardware serial number. The

serial number is located under the paper writing pad, in the lower-left
hand corner.

• The first part of the serial number might already be displayed in the form.

Be sure you don’t repeat the first few characters. The hardware serial
number begins with the characters SP00.

• On Windows NT, 2000, or XP, you must have administrative rights to

install the software.

• If you get an error during setup, disable your anti-virus program and run

setup again.

3. Attach Your Handheld

Your handheld must be placed in the designated area of the SmartPad portfo­lio so the infrared ports of the two devices can communicate properly. Two
self-adhesive strips of hook-and-loop material keep the handheld securely in
place.

The hook-and-loop material provides an extremely aggressive bond. That’s
terrific if you plan to leave your handheld in the SmartPad portfolio nearly
all the time. But if you expect to frequently remove and replace the handheld
from the portfolio, we suggest you use only half of the self-adhesive loop
material, as follows:

1. Without separating the backing strips, remove the two loop strips from

the portfolio’s hook strips to which they’re attached.

2. Cut one of the strips in half lengthwise. Save the other strip for future

use.

3. Replace the two half strips on the portfolio’s matching hook material.

4. Continue with the following procedure.

To attach the handheld:

1. Remove the backing from the self-adhesive strips in the SmartPad port-

folio.

2. Place the handheld on the strips, centering it on the pad area to which the

hook-and-loop strips are attached.

3. Press firmly to adhere the strip to your handheld.

4. Remove your handheld from the SmartPad, turn the handheld over, and

press the loop strips so that they’re securely, permanently adhered.

4. Begin Creating Ink Notes

You are ready to create your first ink note. Use the SmartPad pen end on
your SmartPad writing pad. Use a stylus or the stylus pen cap on your hand­held. Do not use the pen on the handheld screen; it might scratch the surface.

To create an ink note:

1. Launch InkNote Manager on your handheld.

2. Write on the SmartPad tablet with the SmartPad pen. An ink note will

appear on the screen.
