4.1 Using ActiveSync

With

Microsoft ActiveSync

on both your PC and your SX66, you can exchange informa-

tion between a PC or server and your SX66. This process is called "synchronization."

To synchronize your SX66 with your PC, you must install

ActiveSync

on the PC. Using

ActiveSync

, you can:

n

Synchronize information between your SX66 and PC or server so that you have the latest

information in all locations.

n

Change synchronization settings and synchronization schedule.

n

Copy files between your SX66 and PC.

n

Back up and restore information saved on your SX66.

n

Add and remove programs on your SX66.

By default,

ActiveSync

does not automatically synchronize all types of information. Use

ActiveSync

options to turn synchronization on and off for specific information types.

You can synchronize information between your mobile device and a server if your company

is running

Microsoft Exchange Server

with

Exchange ActiveSync

.

Installing ActiveSync

Before you begin synchronization, install

ActiveSync

on your PC from the

SX66 Companion

CD

.

ActiveSync

is already installed on your SX66.

Once

ActiveSync

is installed on your PC, you will be prompted to connect and create a

partnership with your SX66 by using a cable, cradle, infrared, or Bluetooth connection.

Connecting to a PC via a cable or cradle

Please see the

Quick Start Guide

for information about

ActiveSync

installation.

1. Connect your SX66 and PC via a cable or cradle to start synchronization.
2. Your first synchronization will automatically begin when you finish the installation wizard. After

the first synchronization, you will notice that your

Outlook

information now appears on your

SX66.

3. To disconnect, remove your SX66 from the cradle or detach it from the cable.
