Chapter 6: Using The PC Connection

Introduction

6.1 Introduction

This chapter explains how to use ActiveSync to copy files between a PC and the
NETBOOK PRO, and to ‘synchronize’ files between the two devices. It assumes
some basic knowledge of Windows

®

PC operating systems.

These instructions assume that you have established a link between your PC and
NETBOOK PRO. See “Setting Up ActiveSync” on page 52 for details on communi-
cation links.

Check that a link exists between the NETBOOK PRO and the PC by
looking in the PC’s System tray in the bottom right-hand corner of your
desktop. There should be a green circle in the system tray if you have suc-
cessfully linked, as shown.

If this circle is grey there is no connection.

Make sure that your link cable is connected.

On the NETBOOK PRO, check the taskbar for the blue monitor icon. If
there is no icon, your unit is not connected.

6.2 Using ActiveSync

ActiveSync allows Windows Explorer to see files on your NETBOOK PRO, using the
Explore icon in the ActiveSync window. You can copy your NETBOOK PRO files in
most of the ways you can copy any normal PC file, including copying or moving files
to your PC in order to print them. The methods outlined in this chapter are representa-
tive of ways that you might use Explorer, but are not the only possibilities.

Note: You can change the look of Explorer using options in the View menu;

therefore, the appearance of your own screen may vary slightly from

those shown.
