NEC MobilePro 880 - Manual (Page 34)

1-26 Getting Started
Note: Whenever possible Microsoft
ActiveSync automatically translates files and
email attachments during synchronization. This
allows you to use the MobilePro to view and work
with files created on your host PC with Microsoft
Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, among others.
However, as noted in the readme.doc file on the
Microsoft ActiveSync CD, PowerPoint files
created or modified on the MobilePro are not
translated for viewing or modification on your
host PC. This limitation does not apply to Pocket
Word or Pocket Excel files.
Synchronizing with Your Host PC
Once your MobilePro is configured for synchronization with
your host PC, synchronization occurs when the ActiveSync
components on the NEC MobilePro and on the host PC are
activated. When synchronizing via the serial port, the process
occurs automatically. When synchronizing via the infrared
port, manual intervention is required. Refer to the next two
sections for details about synchronizing with your host PC.
Synchronizing via the Serial Port
Once the MobilePro is configured for synchronization the
synchronization process automatically occurs each time you
connect the MobilePro to your host PC, via the serial port. In
addition, you can manually initiate the synchronization
process using Microsoft ActiveSync on your host PC. Simply
open the ActiveSync window, click File, and click
Synchronize.
