This section describes “manual” installation of the HandPHONE SMS
application file. You may skip directly to Chapter 2 – Getting Started if the
software is already installed on your Palm handheld.
HandPHONE SMS operates entirely on your Palm handheld. After installation,
there is no interaction with your desktop computer. To install the software, you
will need to connect your Palm handheld to your PC or Macintosh computer in
order to run HotSync software and upload the HandPHONE SMS program file.
The instructions given in this section are valid both for Windows and Macintosh
systems. To install HandPHONE SMS:
1. Locate the phonesms.prc file. You may copy the file to your hard disk or
install it directly from your distribution media.
2. Place your Palm handheld in its cradle and make sure the cable is
correctly connected to your Windows or Macintosh desktop computer.
3. Use your mouse to double-click on the phonesms.prc file. This will start the
Palm application installer program.
4. Confirm your selection. HandPHONE SMS will be copied to your Palm
handheld next time you perform a HotSync operation.
5. Next, make sure the HotSync Manager application is active on your
desktop computer, and press the HotSync button on the unit’s cradle to
begin file transfer.
