Install Aton Connect On Your Mobile Phone

  1. Download the product Zip file from the Downloads page of “http://www.aton.com”. On the Downloads page, select the product “Aton Connect for Windows Mobile Pocket PC” and enter your e-mail address and other information you may wish to share with us.   In a moment or two, our server will e-mail the download link to you in an auto-response e-mail. Clicking on the link in the e-mail will cause the Zip file to be downloaded to your computer at a disk location you select.
  2. Unpack this Zip file into a temporary directory, such as “C:\AtonConnectPpc”. The Zip file contains one file, the setup EXE file.  On Windows XP, since the ZIP file unpack is built in, just right click the Zip file you downloaded in step 1, and select “Extract All…” On XP and other versions of Windows you can also use the WinZip utility to perform this function. A free trial copy of WinZip can be obtained at: http://www.winzip.com.
  3. Make sure Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1 (Vista) or ActiveSync 4.5 (XP) is installed on your laptop or desktop computer and that your Pocket PC device is connected via ActiveSync to your computer. For Windows Vista use: Windows Mobile Device Center.  For Windows XP use: ActiveSync 4.5
  4. Execute the “setup.exe” program contained in the temporary directory where you unpacked the zip file (see stem 2 above) .  You can execute the file by double clicking its entry in Windows Explorer.
  5. Follow the instructions on the screen to complete the installation of Aton Connect on the Pocket PC. Aton Connect for Windows Mobile Pocket PC will operate on Windows Mobile 2003 (on touch screen only), 5.0, 6 and later versions.  Aton Connect also requires the .NET Compact Framework 2.0 (.NET CF 2.0). Older Windows Mobile devices may include only the older .NET CF 1.0 or no version of Compact Framework at all.�

    When you start Aton Connect, you will be prompted to install the .NET Compact Framework 2.0 software if it is not on your device.  You can download the software from Microsoft’s web site, http://www.microsoft.com, by searching for the term “.NET Compact Framework Redistributable”.

  6. The installation process will add the “Aton Connect” program into the Programs folder. The installation process also makes available the Aton Connect .NET control for use with custom Pocket PC “Smart Client” application you can generate with the Aton Connect Host Integration Toolkit.
  7. Windows Mobile Device Center or ActiveSync provides the standard way to uninstall our product from the Pocket PC. Choose “Add/Remove Programs…” selection from the Tools menu of ActiveSync. This selection is only available when the Pocket PC is plugged into the cradle and is recognized by the attached PC.
