your phone 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
phone to the cable and press the HotSync button. When you travel, you
don’t have to carry a cable.

Conducting a HotSync operation via a network

When you use the Network HotSync software, you can take advantage of
the Local Area Network (LAN) connectivity available in many office
environments. The Network HotSync software enables you to perform a
HotSync operation by using a cable that is connected to any computer on
your LAN (provided that the computer connected to the cable also has the
Network HotSync software installed, your computer is on, and the
HotSync Manager is running).

To prepare your computer for a network HotSync operation:

1.

Click the HotSync Manager icon

in the Windows system tray

(bottom-right corner of the taskbar).

2.

From the HotSync Manager menu, choose
