Using MobileMapper Field Software
Installing
MobileMapper
Field
This section describes how to install MobileMapper Field
from the CD provided, using an office computer.
If Windows XP (or older OS version) is used on your computer,
you first need to install Microsoft Active Sync on your office
computer.
If Vista is used, you don’t normally need to install an
additional program on your computer. However, if the
installation of the MobileMapper Field software fails, you will
have first to install Windows Mobile Device Center and then
resume the installation of MobileMapper Field.
The latest versions of ActiveSync and Device Center can be
downloaded from http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/
activesync/default.mspx at no cost. ActiveSync 4.5 and
Device Center 6.1 can be installed directly from your
MobileMapper Field CD.
If you are upgrading MobileMapper FIeld, Ashtech
recommends you first uninstall the previous version of
MobileMapper Field from the receiver using Start, Settings,
System, Remove Programs.
