To connect a Windows CE handheld device to the network through the Clarinet
EthIR Switch:
1. Face your device’s infrared port directly toward any EthIR Beam
connected to the Switch.
2. Establish a remote connection by double clicking on the IR icon in the
Remote Networking applet or click its shortcut on your desktop. A
Connection window pops up to display the status of the connection.
Note: As events occur, they are displayed in the status window, such as handshaking and user
authentication. Audio notice is provided once a session successfully starts or fails to start.
3. If an error occurs while a connection is being established, the device
repeats the connection attempt four times as displayed in the pop-up status
window. Wait until all four attempts fail before taking further action. If all
four attempts fail, repeat steps 1 and 2.
Troubleshooting Note: A common connection failure occurs when incorrect IP addresses
are entered into the IP Pool or are IPs that are already in use by other users on the
network.
