ADVANTECH
™
commercial laundry
products allows the use of a Palm
™
handheld device,
also referred to as a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA),
for washer and dryer installation, setup, setting
special vend prices, washer and dryer software
upgrades, and transferring data to and from a
personal computer (PC). This information is setup on
the PC using ADVANTECH
™
Management Software,
which is then used to download ADVANTECH
™
Handheld Software to the Palm
™
handheld. The
Palm
™
handheld uses an infrared light beam to
communicate information contained in the
Management Software to the washer and dryer. See
Information Flowchart on page 3.
Before downloading the Handheld Software to a
PDA
device running the Palm
™
operating system,
ADVANTECH
™
Management Software must be
installed and running on your PC. Passwords,
machine setup, and Handheld Software are available
within the Management Software package. This
software instruction manual details the initial setup of
the ADVANTECH
™
Management and Handheld
Software and its use with the PC, the Palm
™
handheld (or other PDA), and the ADVANTECH
™
commercial laundry products.
It is assumed that you are familiar with the basic
operation and use of the Palm
™
handheld and the PC,
and that you have followed all installation instructions
that came with the Palm
™
handheld for the setup of
the Palm
™
software, including the HotSync
®
Manager,
and its cradle. See the Palm owner’s manual for more
information. Setup of the Palm
™
software and a
successful HotSync
®
between the PDA & the PC
should be accomplished prior to the installation of the
ADVANTECH
™
Management Software onto the PC.
