iPad setup is pretty straighforward, and can be done in a couple of steps.

You will need to get a few settings from your 4SmartPhone control panel before you get started. In your Control Panel, click the ActiveSync menu item on the left. On this page, you will want to reference these settings:

 

  • Domain Name: (i.e. EXCH020)
  • Server Name: (i.e. owa020.serverdata.net) 
  • Display Name: (Your name) 
  • Email Address: (Your email address)
  • USERNAME: (this is found across from your email address in the list and has an underscore in it, i.e. Jim_myaccount)

Then follow these steps on your iPad:

  1. Tap on Settings 
  2. Tap on Mail, Contacts, and Calendar 
  3. Tap Add Account 
  4. Tap Exchange 
  5. Enter the settings from above in their proper fields. 
    1. On the first settings screen, there will not be a Server field. This will appear after the first Validation if it cannot find the server automatically. 
  6. Tap next.

Once the server settings have been validated, just make sure all three switches are on for Mail, Contacts, and Calendar.

And then you are set! :)
