Connecting to a PC by Infrared

You can use an infrared connection to create a direct

connection between your SX66 and another IR-enabled

are no cables or adapters to change. When creating a

partnership, you must connect using infrared, a cable,

or a cradle connection.

1. Set up an infrared connection. (Install and configure

an infrared port on your PC according to the

manufacturer's instructions).

2. Switch to the infrared port on your desktop computer:

On the

File

menu of the

ActiveSync

click

Connection Settings

. In the

cable or infrared connection to this COM port

3. Align the infrared ports on your PC and your SX66 so

that they are un-obstructed and within close range.

4. On your SX66, tap the

Start

menu

> ActiveSync
