Connecting and networking Pocket
LOOX 600 with other devices
The Pocket PC offers a wide range of ways to exchange data with other devices or to work in a
network.
You have already become familiar with data synchronisation via ActiveSync and an ActiveSync cable
in the chapter "Synchronising data with ActiveSync". You can connect the ActiveSync cable
provided to any PC or notebook equipped with a USB port. An active ActiveSync cable for devices
with a serial port is also available as an accessory.
In addition, both the infrared interface and BLUETOOTH are available for wireless communication.
With various cards which you can purchase as accessories (LAN card, W-LAN or modem card) you
can integrate your Pocket PC in networks and establish a connection to the Internet.
This chapter provides you with information on wireless data transfer
· via infrared interface
· via BLUETOOTH
Please see the documentation of the respective card for information on using LAN, W-LAN or
modem cards.
Wireless data transfer with infrared interface
The infrared interface (IrDA) on the left-hand side of your Pocket PC enables wireless serial data
transfer with up to 115 kbit/s.
For data transfer, you must align the infrared interface of your Pocket PC with that of the partner
device (e.g. PC). 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.
Run the program Infrared Receive under Programs on your Pocket PC. The Pocket PC immediately
begins to search for the partner device (infrared transmitter) and informs you on any infrared
interface found.
If the infrared partner device has not been found, point the device in another direction and then run
the program
Infrared Receive again.
