  3. Follow the onscreen instructions for downloading and installing Speedlink.

Using the Speedlink Features

When you click the Speedlink task system icon, the Speedlink menu opens in a browser window. The Speedlink menu includes a range of search tools and quick links to Checkpoint content. The features and tools available to you in Speedlink are subscription sensitive. Some of the tools available include:

In addition, several sub-menus let you access accounting content, training and support, and additional tools. Subscribers to e-Form RS can link to the e-Form RS application.

Clicking the Go to Checkpoint link opens Checkpoint in the normal way according to your General Settings selections in Checkpoint's Options.

Each tool and sub-menu is displayed in a separate pane inside the Speedlink menu. These panes can be organized and arranged in any configuration. To move a pane, click the pane's title bar with your left mouse button and drag it to the new position.
