Returning to serial cable HotSync operations
It’s easy to return to using the cable for HotSync operations.

The next time you want to perform a HotSync operation just press the HotSync button on the
cable. You can leave the HotSync application on your communicator set to perform IR HotSync
operations and still use the cable. This is useful if you perform HotSync operations with both your
desktop computer and a laptop. When you are in the office just connect your communicator to
the cable and press the HotSync button. When you travel, you don’t have to carry a cable.
Conducting a wireless HotSync operation
Your communicator includes a built-in wireless modem which you can use for wireless
synchronization when you are away from your computer.
Note:
The first HotSync operation must be local, using the cable. After that, you can perform a
wireless HotSync operation.
To perform a wireless HotSync operation you must complete the following steps:
■
Connect a modem to your computer
■
Configure HotSync Manager for use with your modem
■
Configure the Modem Preferences on your communicator
