SETTING UP YOUR M430
Your new M430 is in storage mode, and it wakes up when you plug it into a USB charger for charging or a
computer for setup. We recommend that you charge the battery before you start using your M430. If the
battery is completely empty, it takes a couple of minutes for the charging to start.
See Batteries for detailed information on charging the battery, battery operating times and low battery
notifications.
CHOOSE ONE OPTION FOR SETUP
A. Mobile setup is convenient if you don't have access to a computer with a USB port, but it might take longer.
This method requires an Internet connection.
B. Wired computer setup is quicker and you can charge your M430 at the same time, but you need a
computer available. This method requires an Internet connection.
The A and B options are recommended. You can fill in all the physical details required for accurate
training data at once. You can also choose language and get the latest firmware for your M430.
