2.1 Installing BrailleNote GPS Software

This section explains how to install the GPS software and data on your 
BrailleNote. If you purchased the GPS and BrailleNote at the same time, the GPS 
software
may already be installed for you and it is not necessary to install it, 
although if you need to reinstall the software for any reason, the GPS 
installation
executable file should be on the Compact Flash memory card or back-up CD 
supplied with your GPS.

If you have purchased the GPS as an accessory, you will need to install the 
software on your BrailleNote according to the following instructions.
Feel along the back of the BrailleNote and you will find the Compact Flash Card 
slot. Insert the card into this slot with the lip oriented away from the
machine and down. It will only go in one way properly. It takes a little 
pressure to press it in the last quarter inch or so. Do not force it. If it does
not plug in all the way, flip the card over. Note: If you wish to use the PC 
card slot in the right hand side, you will first need to put the Compact Flash
card into a PC card adapter and then into the PC card slot.
If you need to install the GPS software, hold down keys S, D and F on the 
keyboard. Press and release RESET and continue holding the keys down until you
hear the chime.
From the Main Menu, press U for Utilities.
Press A for Applications.
The prompt: "Run program from which drive?" displays. Press C for Compact Flash 
card. (or P for the PC card slot).
You are prompted for the Directory. press ENTER for none.
Select the GPS program installation file, press ENTER and follow the prompts. 
If it says "command line," just press ENTER. If you receive any messages about
installing over newer files, ignore this and press ENTER to continue 
installing. ?If you get a message about files being in use, this means the 
reset did
not work properly. Try it again and make sure to hold the three keys down until 
the second audio chime, about ten seconds after the reset beep.
When the installation is completed, remove any storage cards and do a No Key 
Reset, by pressing the reset button. Your GPS software is now ready to go.

If it is necessary to do a Hard Reset, i.e. with Keys J-K-L held down, some 
settings may be lost. If you are using a Bluetooth GPS receiver, you will need
to pair and activate it again after a hard reset. After a normal reset it is 
only necessary to re-activate your Bluetooth GPS receiver.
