<strong>Mavis</strong> <strong>Beacon</strong> <strong>Teaches</strong> <strong>Typing</strong> ® for Palm-Powered Handhelds<br />

System Requirements for PDA<br />

As with other PDA applications, the installation requires a computer with “hot synch” capability.<br />

The <strong>Mavis</strong> <strong>Beacon</strong> application is compatible only with systems with Palm operating system 3.0<br />

or later. This application requires Palm Desktop software, PDA hardware (such as a Handspring<br />

Visor or Palm handheld), and a keyboard accessory for the PDA.<br />

Installing the PDA Application<br />

To install the software, select <strong>Mavis</strong> <strong>Beacon</strong> <strong>Teaches</strong> <strong>Typing</strong> ® for Palm-Powered Handhelds from<br />

the main launcher screen. Follow the onscreen instructions to complete the installation. After you<br />

install the application, hot synch it to your PDA.<br />

Starting the PDA Application<br />

When you tap the <strong>Mavis</strong> icon, the Main menu appears (shown below). There are three typing<br />

games and one practice test. The Main menu is the central hub for this application. Tapping one<br />

of the four bold titles will start the game or practice test.<br />
