Chapter 4: Configuring The Unit

Setting Up ActiveSync

2. On the NETBOOK PRO, go into Control Panel. Open Network and

Dial-up Connections. Open the Properties for the network connection
by double-clicking on the icon.

3. Click on the Name Servers tab and fill in the WINS information. If

your network does not have a WINS server, you must set this informa-
tion to use the IP of your PC. If you do not know this information,
please contact your system administrator.

4. Click on OK to save the network settings.
5. On the NETBOOK PRO, click on the Start button, then Programs,

then ActiveSync, and select wireless from the ActiveSync menu.

Important:

You must have a correctly configured access point to use 802.11b
Ethernet to access your PC via ActiveSync. The PC and the
NETBOOK PRO must be on the same network, or networks that
have access to each other, for this to function correctly.

4.2.1.5

Connecting Via Bluetooth

To create an ‘ASync’ profile (ActiveSync profile) via Bluetooth, a partnership must
be established between the PC and the NETBOOK PRO. For details on Bluetooth
profiles, see “Services” on page 98.

On the PC...

1. First, you must setup ActiveSync on your PC so that it listens on the

Bluetooth port for the incoming serial connection. The port name is
system-dependent, so consult the Bluetooth manager of your PC to find
out which one it is. Once you have identified the Bluetooth port name,
open ActiveSync on the PC and look at the Connection Settings
screen. Place a checkmark in the checkbox labeled ‘Allow serial cable
or infrared connection to this COM port:’. Select the appropriate COM
port, and press OK.

Note: Ensure that the Authentication and Encryption settings are correct on

both local and remote devices—the speed or baudrate of the port is not

important.
