Chapter 5: Using The PC Connection
Introduction
5.1 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 40 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.
5.2 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 representative of ways that you might use Explorer, but are not the only possibili-
ties.
