Performing an IR HotSync operation
After you complete the steps to prepare for performing an IR HotSync
operation, it is easy to perform the actual operation.
To perform an IR HotSync operation:
1. In the Applications Launcher, tap the HotSync icon.
2. Tap Local.
3. Tap the pick list below the HotSync icon and select IR to a
PC/Handheld.
4. Position the IR port of your handheld within a couple of inches of
the infrared port of your computer.
5. Tap the HotSync icon to start the IR HotSync operation.
Returning to cradle/cable HotSync operations
It’s easy to return to using the cradle/cable for HotSync operations.
You can even leave the HotSync application on your handheld set to
perform IR HotSync operations and still use the cradle/cable. This is
useful if you perform HotSync operations with both your desktop
computer and a laptop that you travel with. When you travel, you
don’t have to carry the cradle/cable because your handheld is set to
perform IR HotSync operations. When you’re in the office, just
connect your handheld to the cradle/cable and press the HotSync
button.
To return to cradle/cable HotSync operations on a Windows com-
puter:
1. If needed, connect the cradle/cable to a serial (COM) port on your
computer.
2. Click the HotSync Manager icon in the Windows system tray.
3. Choose Setup, and then click Local.
