Maintenance and servicing
Backing up your information
We strongly recommend that you regularly back up the data on your stick reader by
transferring it to a PC using Data Link PC software.
Updating your software
We recommend that you regularly update the stick reader software so that you
keep up with the latest features and improvements.
To update the software:
1. Connect the stick reader to a PC using the cable supplied.
2. Launch Data Link on your PC.
3. Click Tools / Updates.
4. Follow the step-by-step instructions.
For more information, see the Data Link help.
When updating software, the data on your stick reader will remain
intact. However, we strongly recommend that you transfer the
information on your stick reader onto a PC before updating.
Caring for the stick reader
Wipe the stick reader clean using a damp cloth, warm water and soap. Other
cleaners may damage the case or screen.
Do not immerse the stick reader in water.
Do not leave the stick reader where it may be exposed to extreme temperatures
(e.g. on the dashboard of a vehicle).
Store the stick reader in a cool, dry place.
Fit the dust cap when there are no cables connected to the stick reader. This will
prevent moisture and dirt from entering the socket.
