Field Mapping
The linkage that directs the comparison and transfer of handheld and
PC data during synchronizations. Field mapping is contained (and can
be edited) in the Intellisync Field Mapping dialog.
To access the Field Mapping dialog, select the Field Mapping button
in the Advanced Settings dialog.
History File
A file that is created by a first run synchronization and updated after
every subsequent synchronization. During a synchronization, this file
aids Intellisync in determining which data to use when there are
discrepancies between the handheld and PC systems. See
“Synchronization and History Files” in Chapter 4 for more complete
information.
HotSync® Button
Located on the HotSync ® cradle, this button initiates a
synchronization using settings currently in place in the Intellisync
dialogs. Note that in order for this button to work, the HotSync
Manager application must be loaded in memory, and the handheld
cradle must be connected to a valid PC COM port. See also, HotSync
Manager.
HotSync Manager
An application that is placed in your Windows Startup group when you
install Palm
™ Desktop. This application, which runs in the
background, coordinates communications between your handheld and
your PC. When you have configured an Intellisync synchronization,
pressing the HotSync button on the handheld cradle directs the
HotSync Manager to execute the operation.
Import
A one-way transfer of data. The Intellisync Import command (selected
in the Choose Translator dialog) imports records from a selected PC
application to a selected handheld application.
Key Field
A field specially defined to detect data conflicts during
synchronizations. During an operation, Intellisync compares the values
of mapped fields in handheld and PC records. When “key” values
match, but other mapped values differ, a data conflict exists. For
