Installing Motorola Phone Tools

Important!

Before connecting the device to your PC, you need to install the
software.

To install Motorola Phone Tools on your hard drive, insert the CD-ROM containing
the program in the appropriate drive. When installing Motorola Phone Tools from
the CD-ROM, the installation process starts automatically.

Should the installation program not start, execute the following instructions:

1. From the Start menu (accessible from the task bar), select the Run
command.

2. Select the drive that contains the CD or type D:SETUP (D: represents the
CD-ROM drive).

3. To run the file, click OK.

An installation wizard will guide you step-by-step through the installation process,
prompting for information where needed. During the installation procedure, the
content of the CD-ROM is copied onto your hard drive and a program group is
created to hold the application icons for Motorola Phone Tools.

After installation, the online registration wizard is automatically launched (see

Online registration, page 12). The registration is necessary to benefit from the
guarantee, the technical assistance, and free upgrades.

Depending on the operating system, when the installation process is completed,

the installation wizard asks you to restart your computer so that all system
changes take effect.

The Add a shortcut to the desktop to start the program box is checked by de-
fault. If you prefer to start Motorola Phone Tools from the Start menu in the taskbar,
remove the check. If you keep that option, the following icon can be added to the
desktop, as a shortcut, to start the program:
