Editing connections
The following example shows you how to edit the IR to GSM Phone connection to
adjust the communication speed; you can similarly edit other connections or
settings or create a custom connection. You can use the IR to GSM Phone
connection to perform a remote IR HotSync operation. To accomplish the HotSync
operation, your handheld sends data through its IR port to a modem within your
mobile phone, which then dials a modem attached to or within your desktop
computer, to synchronize with your Desktop application.
To edit the IR to Phone connection:
1. From the Communications Preferences list, select Connection.
2. Select the IR to GSM Phone connection.
PC to Cradle/Cable:
A local HotSync connection—the direct
connection between your handheld and your desktop
computer. Your handheld is connected by its universal
connector to the cradle/cable, and the cradle/cable is attached
to a USB port of your desktop computer. (If you are using the
optional serial cradle/cable, the cradle/cable attaches to a serial
[COM] port of your computer.)
Modem to Universal connector: A cable connection between
your handheld’s universal connector and a modem for dialing
in to a modem that is part of your computer or laptop.
PC to Infrared:
A connection between the IR port of your
handheld and the infrared device of your computer or laptop.
Modem to Infrared: A connection between the IR port of your
handheld and a modem. The modem can be attached to or
within a mobile phone or other device containing an IR port.
(Some IR phones contain modems.)
