Conducting Wireless HotSync Operations

business environments. You can dial in to a network or use a cradle that is connected to
any computer on your LAN or WAN (provided that the computer connected to the cradle
also has HotSync installed, your computer is on, and the HotSync Manager is running).

Setting Up for a Wireless HotSync

The SPT 1733, 1734, and 174x terminals allow you to perform a HotSync without using a
cradle over a terminal specific wireless LAN (174x) or WAN (173x). This section describes
the setup necessary for a wireless HotSync to occur.
