Note that you can use the ADB command only in the engineer mode terminal. Before using the ADB command, you must make sure that the USB driver is installed on the PC. The USB module is provided by Qualcomm, so you can download drivers from Qualcomm's official website or some free driver tools that support Qualcomm's USB drivers.
* '''Prerequisites:'''
 
** ADB commands can only be used in engineer mode terminals.
For Q1,please download the ADB driver from http://adbdriver.com/, the USB driver from http://ftp.wizarpos.com/QUD.WIN.1.1Installer-10039.2.zip (for win7) or
** Ensure the USB driver is installed on your PC. For Qualcomm modules, download drivers from Qualcomm's official website or compatible driver tools.
http://ftp.wizarpos.com/usbdriver_xp.rar (for winXP). Please get Android SDK from Google and install it on your PC.
* '''Driver Downloads for Q1:'''
 
** ADB Driver: Download from http://adbdriver.com/  
The steps of install APK is like follows:
** USB Driver:
# Connect the terminal to PC.
*** For Windows 7: http://ftp.wizarpos.com/QUD.WIN.1.1Installer-10039.2.zip
# Open the dos window.
*** For Windows XP: http://ftp.wizarpos.com/usbdriver_xp.rar
# Input the adb install –r XXX.apk
** Install Android SDK from Google on your PC.
 
* '''Installation Steps:'''
== Use WizarView==
** Connect the terminal to the PC.
Wizarview is a terminal management system of wizarPOS. If you want to use Wizarview to manage your terminal, such as installing or uninstalling an APK remotely on a terminal, please apply for the Wizarview account from wizarPOS.
** Open a DOS window on your PC.
 
** Enter the command: ''''adb install -r XXX.apk'''' (replace XXX with your APK file name).
== Use TF-card ==
== Using WizarView ==
# In TF-card, there are two ways to create the folder for apk installation:
* WizarView is wizarPOS's terminal management system, allowing remote APK management on terminals.
## Create the folder "\wizarpos\homesettings\homesettings_[splashname]\apks". In this folder name, the '''[splashname]''' is different sometimes. Please find this from the terminal settings, see the kernel version in Settings>About POS, if in the last line display “splash=wizarpos” , then the splashname is wizarpos, so the folder is "\wizarpos\homesettings\homesettings_wizarpos\apks".
* To use WizarView, apply for an account from wizarPOS.
## Create the folder "\cloudpos\app". This folder only works of PosSysAssistant app version 2.11.22 or above.
== Using a TF-Card ==
# Copy the apk files to the above folder.
* '''Folder Creation:'''
# Install the TF-card, start the terminal.
** Option 1: Create ''''\wizarpos\homesettings\homesettings_[splashname]\apks''''. Replace ''''[splashname]'''' with the name found in terminal settings (Settings > About POS).
# After the terminal enter to system, will popup an install window, checked/unchecked the APK you want to install, then confirm. This step is only for 1.2, that is, the installed APK folder is \cloudpos\app\XXX.apk.
** Option 2: Create ''''\cloudpos\app''''. This requires PosSysAssistant app version 2.11.22 or above.
# After the terminal enter to system, will popup the installation wizard, then install the APK according to the wizard.
* '''Installation Process:'''
 
** Copy the APK files to the created folder.
See also [[Recommended_TF_Card]].
** Insert the TF-card and start the terminal.
 
** Follow the on-screen instructions to install the APK.

== Using a Thumb Drive ==
Insert a converter as shown in the figure below into the micro USB interface of the terminal, and then insert the thumb drive into the converter. The thumb drive here is equivalent to the role of the TF-card. For the next steps, refer to the TF-card operation above.
* '''Setup:'''
 
** Use a converter to connect the thumb drive to the terminal's micro USB interface.
** The thumb drive functions similarly to a TF-card.
