Installing DLA software
To install new DLA software, you must export the new software to a memory card and insert the card into the
DLA.
The installation process supports both the Handheld Model 702 and Model 802 (Palm platform), and the
Handheld Model 803/804 (Windows CE platform).
Overview
1. First install DLA software on the computer you will use to run Data Manager software.
2. Each time you export lists using Data Manager software, the DLA software you installed on the computer
will be automatically installed on the memory card.
3. When you insert the memory card into the DLA, a dialog box asks you if you want to update the software
with the new version.
Step 1—Install DLA software on your computer’s hard drive
Install DLA software onto the hard drive of the
computer that you use to run Data Manager
software.
1. Insert the 3M™ Digital Library Assistant
Software CD-ROM into your computer’s CD-
ROM drive.
• An installation program automatically
starts.
2. Follow the installation instructions that ask
you to select a Destination folder, languages,
etc.
• The installation process copies the DLA
program files from the CD-ROM and
saves them on your hard drive.
You can install a maximum of four
languages. Be sure to install all languages that
you will use. Languages that are not installed
at this time will not be available for use on the
DLA.
3. When the installation is complete, click
Finish.
• The DLA software is now installed on
your computer’s hard drive.
