Installing Microsoft ActiveSync Software

Microsoft ActiveSync enables you to connect the IDA to your PC.
ActiveSync version 3.1 or greater is required. Download ActiveSync
from the Internet at
www.microsoft.com/pocketpc/downloads/activesync.asp and follow
Microsoft’s installation instructions. When the software installation is
complete, continue by following the procedure below.

Connecting the MobileView Terminal to a PC

To connect the MobileView terminal to a PC:

1. Remove the back cover of the MobileView terminal.

2. Plug the MobileView Download Cable (Catalog Number

2727-MRC1) into the RS-232 Port (note the location of pin 1). See
page 3-12.

3. If ActiveSync or the Get Connected window is not open already

on the PC, follow these steps:

• Select Start>Programs>Communication>ActiveSync>OK

on the PC. The ActiveSync window opens.

• In the ActiveSync window, select File, Get Connected from

the menu bar. The Get Connected window will open.

4. In the Get Connected window, click the Next button.

5. On the MobileView Terminal, select

Start>Programs>Communications>ActiveSync. MobileView
Terminal opens a connection status box. On the PC, the Get
Connected window instructs you to wait while Setup locates
your mobile device. When the PC and MobileView connect, the
MobileView connection status box closes. The PC’s ActiveSync
window shows “Connected” and a New Partnership window will
open.

6. In the New Partnership window on the PC, click No in response

to the question “Would you like to set up a partnership?” Then,
click the Next button.
