Charging the PDA Battery

Your PDA is shipped with a discharged or partially charged, rechargeable battery. You

should fully charge the battery before setting up the device, and recharge it regularly.

Refer to your PDA user’s guide for detailed information about the battery.

Caution

Do not leave important data on the PDA. If the battery

discharges completely, you will lose all data not stored in File

Store (ROM). Discharging the battery completely is similar to

performing a hard reset. Refer to the PDA Users Manual for

more information.

Installing the Software

This section describes how to install Fluke Power View software on the PDA and Fluke

Power Analyze software on your PC. Keep your product CD in case you need to reinstall

this software in the future. You should periodically check the Fluke website:

www.fluke.com

to see if any 1750 firmware or application software updates are available

for download. Fluke encourages you to register the Recorder. After your Recorder has

been registered, you will receive email notifications of firmware and software update

availability.

ActiveSync software for Windows XP (or Mobile Device Center for Windows Vista and

the PDA and your PC. Keep your product CD in case you need to reinstall this software
