Chapter 3 Synchronization
Introduction
Synchronization lets the user manage information between an MC9190-G and a host computer so that changes
made either on the MC9190-G or on the host computer appear in both places. Download and install sync software
to the host computer (either Microsoft ActiveSync for Windows XP or Windows Mobile Device Center (WMDC) for
Windows Vista and Windows 7) in order to use the sync feature. Visit www.microsoft.com on the host computer for
details.
The sync software:
•
Allows working with MC9190-G-compatible applications on the host computer. The sync software replicates
data from the MC9190-G to view, enter, and modify data on the host computer.
•
Synchronizes files between the MC9190-G and the host computer, converting the files to the correct format.
•
Backs up the data stored on the MC9190-G. Synchronization is a one-step procedure that ensures the data
is always safe and up-to-date.
•
Copies (rather than synchronizes) files between the MC9190-G and the host computer.
•
Controls when synchronization occurs by selecting a synchronization mode. For example, synchronize
continuously while the MC9190-G is connected to the host computer, or synchronize only on command.
•
Selects the types of information to synchronize and control how much data is synchronized.
Installing the Sync Software
To download and install either Microsoft ActiveSync (for Windows XP) or WMDC (for Windows Vista and Windows
7), visit www.microsoft.com and follow the instructions for the host computer.
NOTE
When the MC9190-G is connected to a host computer and a sync connection is made, the Wi-Fi radio is
disabled. This is a Microsoft security feature to prevent connection to two networks at the same time.
