Beaming Information: Beaming a Record
CHAPTER 8: BEAMING INFORMATION
Your iQue handheld is equipped with an IR (infrared) port that you can use to beam information to another Garmin integrated
handheld (or other Palm Powered
™
handheld device) that is close by and also has an IR port. The IR port is located at the top of the
handheld behind the small dark shield.
You can beam the following information between Palm OS
®
-based handhelds:
• The record currently displayed in Date Book, Address Book, To Do List, or Memo Pad.
• All records of the category currently displayed in the Address Book, To Do List, or Memo Pad applications.
• A special Address Book record that you designate as your business card, containing information you want to exchange with
business contacts.
• An application installed in RAM memory.
NOTE: HotSync
®
operations can also be done using the IR port. See “IR HotSync Operations” in Chapter 9 for more
information.
For best results, iQue handhelds should be between 10 centimeters (approximately 4 inches) and 1 meter (approximately 39 inches)
apart, and the path between the two devices must be clear of obstacles. Beaming distances to other Palm Powered connected
devices may be different.
