The document provides instructions for programming a Palm Pilot PDA to communicate with and adjust the low-level programming of Hydro-Quip control systems. The PDA must have the Serve-Soft 2 software installed and unlocked using the username "Hydro-Quip" and password "Hq92u1". An ADIR-1 cartridge is used to connect the PDA to the control system. Low-level parameters can then be viewed and modified on the PDA screen by tapping selections. Additional features like current states, troubleshooting, and documentation can also be accessed.

PDA REQUIREMENTS
Following are the minimum requirements for the PDA:
! Palm OS 3.5 or Higher
! Memory RAM capacity 8MB. A PDA with 2MB (like Palm M100 or the Zire) may be
incompatible with the software
! The software takes approximately 1.2MB of memory
Once the PDA has been selected, install all the necessary software and hardware onto
your desktop or laptop computer. You will now have Hot-Sync capability; this is the
ability to transfer information from the desktop to the PDA.
GENERAL
In order to adjust the low level programming, a PDA and Pocket-tek interface
module (ADIR-1 cartridge) must be used (see illustration below).

3. PDA Setup
GENERAL (continued)
WARNING: In order to interface with the control, power must be on. Working under
these circumstances requires that extreme caution be used in order to prevent
injury.
The PDA must be pre-configured with the necessary software (Soft Serve 2) in
order to access these features.
Follow the instructions below to configure the PDA for use with Hydro-Quip control
systems.
SERVE-SOFT UPLOAD
The Serve-Soft program (ServSoft_V2_00-080803b.prc) must be up-loaded to the
PDA by way of the Hot-Sync operation. The program must first be loaded onto your
computer. You may have received it in the form of an attachment via e-mail or
perhaps on a disc. In either case locate the program on your hard drive using
Windows Explorer and double click it.
The System will advise you that the program has been loaded onto your
Documents-To-Go folder and will be up-loaded to your PDA on the next Hot-Sync
operation.
The program requires approximately 1.23MB of internal PDA memory. You must
have at least this much available before starting this process or it will not work.
Once this is ensured and the program is ready to up-load, perform the Hot-Sync
operation. You will get a new icon on the Application Launch screen on the PDA
called “Setup2”.
