Using ActiveSync
Using Microsoft ActiveSync, you can synchronize and transfer information
between your desktop computer and terminal. The most current version of
ActiveSync can be downloaded from www.microsoft.com.
With ActiveSync, you can also:
• Back up and restore your device data.
• Copy (rather than synchronize) files between your device and desktop
computer.
• Control when synchronization occurs by selecting a synchronization mode.
• For example, you can synchronize continually while connected to your
desktop computer or only when you choose the synchronize command.
• Select which information types are synchronized and control how much
data is synchronized. For example, you can choose how many weeks of
past appointments you want synchronized.
Before beginning installation, carefully read the following:
• Because you will be restarting your computer during installation, save your
work and quit all programs before you begin.
• To set up your communication settings, the WDT3200 serial cable is
required to connect the WDT3200 to your host computer.
• If you run the Windows NT ® operating system with a service pack, you will
be informed during setup that you may need to reinstall the service pack.
Try connecting first. If unsuccessful, reinstall the latest service pack.
Requirements
To synchronize, ActiveSync version 3.7 or higher must be installed on your
desktop computer. The WDT3200 terminal ships with ActiveSync already
installed.
To install ActiveSync on your desktop computer, please link to Microsoft website
to get the free download driver.
