Connecting to your computer

To connect to your computer via USB:

PC Users

  • Connect one end of the USB cable to the PC and the other end to your INQ Mini 3G
  • Double-click the PC Suite icon on the dashboard. If this is the first time you've opened PC Suite, it will begin downloading and installing on your computer
  • Once installed, an icon will appear on your desktop. Double-click this to open PC Suite or select Start > All Programs > INQ > PC Suite

Note: The Connection Wizard dialog box is only displayed automatically the first time you open the PC Suite. If you successfully connect a device the first time it runs, the system will save this information as the default connection and will access this automatically, without displaying the Connection Wizard. You can choose to display this by selecting Options > Connection.

To connect to your computer via Bluetooth®:

  • First, make sure your computer has Bluetooth® installed or – if it requires an adapter – ensure this is plugged in before setting up the connection
  • Activate Bluetooth® on your INQ Mini 3G by pressing the MENU key and selecting Settings > Bluetooth > Switch on
  • Double-click the PC Suite icon when it appears on your computer desktop. This will bring up the Connection Wizard dialog box
  • Select Bluetooth to connect to your INQ Mini 3G using Bluetooth®
  • Select Next. The computer will automatically search all devices available via Bluetooth®
  • Select your device from the device list and select Finish to complete the connection

Note: When connecting via Bluetooth® for the first time, PC Suite will require you to create a password to authenticate any new connection. Enter your chosen password in the popup dialog box. You will then be asked to enter this password on your INQ Mini 3G. Providing this first connection is set up successfully, you will not be asked to do this for subsequent connections to your INQ Mini 3G.

If the connection fails, you will see an error message on your computer. Use your computer’s Bluetooth® port detection software to see the available Bluetooth® ports. Select a corresponding port from the list and select Test on your computer to check whether or not the selected port can be used.

Connection failure could also be cause by the distance between your INQ Mini 3G and the computer; make sure that they are within a 10-metre radius of each other. Bluetooth® connectivity may also be subject to interference by walls or other obstacles such as electronic equipment.

Please also note that the INQ Mini 3G’s Connection Guide only supports IVT, Widcomm and Microsoft Bluetooth® drivers.
