IR HotSync operations
Your handheld is equipped with an infrared (IR) port that supports the IrCOMM implementation
of the standards for infrared communication established by the Infrared Data Association (IrDA).
This means that you can beam data to any other device that supports the IrCOMM implementation
of the IrDA standards. Most importantly, you can use the IR port to perform HotSync operations.
When you use the IR port on your handheld to perform HotSync operations, you don’t need your
HotSync cable. You simply enable infrared communication on your computer and your handheld
and then perform an IR HotSync operation. So there’s no need to carry your cable when you’re
on the road with an infrared-enabled laptop.
Preparing your computer for infrared communication
To perform an IR HotSync operation, the computer you want to synchronize with must have an
enabled infrared port or be connected to an infrared device that supports the IrCOMM
implementation of the IrDA standards.
Desktop computers are likely to require an infrared device attached to a physical COM port.
Laptops are likely to have a built-in IR port. Your computer must also have an installed infrared
driver.
Does your computer support infrared communication?
If your computer uses Microsoft Windows 98, Windows Me, Windows 2000, or Windows XP,
infrared communication is built into the operating system. Some versions of Windows 95 also
have built-in infrared communication. If you are using another type of computer, check the
documentation that came with your computer to see if it supports infrared communication.
To check the ports used for infrared communication with Windows 98 and Me:
1. In the Windows taskbar click Start, choose Settings, and then choose Control Panel.
2. Double-click the Infrared icon.
Note:
If you do not see the Infrared icon, you need to install an infrared driver.
3. Click the Options tab.
