Successful Installation

To install the CG 2400 system successfully, you must

follow the installation instructions precisely.

NOTE: Do not attach

the base station

to your PC until

you are instructed

to do so during the

installation process!

The base station driver is not preloaded into

station before the driver is loaded may prevent the

system from successfully recognizing the hardware.

There are four basic steps to successful installation:

• Charging the handset

• Installing the software

• Setting up the base station

• Running the Configuration Wizard

If installation fails, uninstall the program before

trying to reinstall. See “Reinstalling the Software” on
