Using the Infrared Connection
As an alternative to using the desktop cradle, you can
synchronize your Pocket PC and your computer using the
infrared connection if you have an infrared port or an infrared
USB adapter installed on your computer. The infrared connection
option works only on computers that have Microsoft Windows
98SE, Me, 2000, or XP operating systems installed.
To set up an infrared connection to a computer:
1. Synchronize your Pocket PC with your computer using the
desktop cradle before the first time you establish an
ActiveSync connection via infrared.
2. Follow your computer manufacturer’s instructions to install
and set up an infrared port.
3. Remove the Pocket PC from the cradle and line up the
infrared port with the computer infrared port so they are
unobstructed and within 12 inches (30.5 cm) of each other.
