Account configuration 
procedures
The final step to making the AirCard operational is config-
uring it to use your 
 service provider account. The 
process of activation configures your AirCard with the 
required account parameters (phone number, username, 
password, etc.).
If you purchased a pre-activated AirCard, this step is not 
necessary. Once the application software and driver are 
installed, the AirCard is ready for use.
Note: The AirCard can support 
two accounts (phone numbers), 
allowing, for example, one 
account for business and 
another for personal use.
Otherwise, you must use the Activation Wizard to activate and 
configure your account.
Activation Wizard
The Activation Wizard walks you through the process of 
configuring an account. The process and options vary based on 
the service provider. The wizard supports Voice-Assisted or 
Automated Activation in addition to Manual Activation where 
the service provider supports them.
This section is a guide only. Consult the Quick Start Guide, 
and follow the directions on screen and instructions given by 
your service provider representative.
