Wireless data transfer with infrared interface
The infrared interface (IrDA) provides you with wireless serial data transfer of up to 4 Mbits/s. In

Mbits/s. However, should you notice difficulties when exchanging data with slower devices, please
switch to the Slow Infrared setting (115 kbits).
For data transfer, you must align the infrared interface of your Pocket PC with that of the partner
device. The devices must not be more than one metre apart. The infrared interface of one device
must be in the range of influence (horizontally approx. 30 ° and vertically approx. 15 °) of the infrared
interface of the other device.
Wireless communication with Bluetooth (optional)
