Page 127 Advanced HotSync® Operations
Note:
You can set both Local and Modem settings and prepare
your Macintosh to synchronize using the HotSync
cradle/cable or a modem. However, choosing both setups
prevents you from using either port for other operations
such as printing, faxing, or AppleTalk networking.
4. Close the HotSync Software Setup window.
Modem Setup
Enables you to perform HotSync operations
across a telephone line. To do this you must
purchase an optional add-on modem
accessory for your handheld, have a modem
connected to your Macintosh, and set the
following options:
■ Modem.
Identifies the type of modem
connected to your Macintosh. If your
modem does not appear on the list, use the
Hayes setting, or choose Custom to enter a
command string. Refer to the manual that
came with your modem to find the
appropriate command string.
■ Port.
Identifies the port that Palm Desktop
software uses to communicate with the
modem. Select the modem or printer port
where you connected the modem cable. If
your Macintosh does not have a serial port
(such as the Apple iMac), you need to
purchase and install the PalmConnect USB
kit, and then select PalmConnect USB as
the port.
■ Modem Speaker.
Activates the modem’s
speaker. If you are having trouble
connecting, turn on this option to make
sure the modem connected to your
Macintosh is responding to incoming calls.
