GeoExplorer Series Getting Started Guide Using the optional serial clip 35
Connecting to external devices
You can use the serial clip instead of the support module to connect to a
computer. It also provides a serial port to connect to other devices.
To connect to an external device:
1. Attach the serial clip to the handheld.
2. Plug the null modem cable into the serial (COM) port on the serial clip.
3. Connect the other end of the cable to the serial port on the external
device.
4. If you are connecting to a computer, tap
/ Programs / Connect to
Desktop
. When the handheld is connected to the computer, the
connection icon appears in the navigation bar.
For more information
about transferring data
between a
GeoExplorer series
handheld and a desktop
computer, see Connecting
to a computer, page 11.
To connect to a device that does not
have a serial port, such as an external
modem or mobile phone, use a cable
that has a DE9 connector on one end,
and the appropriate connector for the
other device on the other end. A
suitable cable may be supplied with the
external device.
For more information about using an
external modem or mobile phone to
access the Internet, see Internet and
network connection, page 41.
