Texas Instruments TI-Nspire Getting Started

1. Ensure any open documents on the receiving handheld are closed.
2. Connect the two handhelds using a USB mini-B to mini-B USB cable.
3. On the sending handheld, select My Documents from the Home screen.
4. Press b, and then select Send OS.
On a TI-Nspire™ handheld, press b.
5. On the receiving handheld, the message, “ You are receiving an OS
Upgrade. Unsaved changes will be lost. Would you like to continue? “is
displayed along with Yes and No response buttons. Select Yes to receive
the OS upgrade.
• If Yes is not selected within 30 seconds, the handheld automatically
responds with No and the transmission is cancelled.
• It is important to save and close all open documents before performing
an OS Upgrade. Continuing with an OS Upgrade on a handheld with
an open, unsaved document will cause the loss of that data.
6. While the upgrade is in progress, the following messages are displayed on
the receiving and sending handhelds:
• “ Receiving OS. Do not unplug cable. ”
• “ Sending OS. Do not unplug cable. “
7. After the transfer completes, the sending handheld receives a completion
message and you can unhook the cable. The OS is automatically installed
on the receiving handheld. During the installation process, the “Installing
OS < version number >” message is displayed on the receiving handheld.
