Before You Begin

  • The tablet must be factory reset.


Starting the Setup

  1. On the Welcome! screen, tap four times in the white area (not the blue Start button).

  2. The screen will change to “Scanning for a QR code…” with a camera box.

  3. Scan the Setup QR Code provided by Worksana.

    • If you don’t have it, request it from support


WiFi & Device Configuration

  • Connect to your WiFi network.

  • Wait on the “Getting your tablet ready…” screen (may take a few minutes).
