Connection
When attaching a modem to the serial (RS232) port,
verify that the port assigned to your modem is Serial USB
(COM
x
), where
x
is the number of the COM port.
If the operating system does not detect automatically that
your modem is assigned to Serial USB (COM
x
), run the
Hardware Wizard again and choose
Select
from the list
instead of
Autodetect
. Then, select use
Prolific Device
from Page
as the COM port.
Error Message on Your PDA
If the error message “Connection Not Established”
appears on your PDA, check that the COM port setting in
either your HotSync or ActiveSync software matches the
setting on the docking station. See “Verifying Devices
are Installed” on page 18 to verify the COM port setting
on the docking station.
Some older versions of the Palm
®
Desktop software are
not compatible with the USB to Serial conversion. Please
contact your PDA vendor for software updates.
