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.
