Using ActiveSync

Use ActiveSync to transfer and synchronize (share) files between the Pegaso and the
Host PC.

Setting up a Partnership

During the Microsoft ActiveSync installation, you were prompted to create a partner-
ship with your mobile device. When you set up a partnership, you select synchroniza-
tion and file conversion settings, which are contained in a file on your desktop
computer. This file enables your desktop computer to recognize your device. Only
devices that have a partnership with a desktop computer can synchronize information
between the two computers.

Partnerships are stored in ActiveSync and have the same name as the corresponding
device. Your desktop computer can set up partnerships with many different mobile
devices, but the Pegaso can have partnerships with only two computers. For more infor-
mation on partnerships, please refer to your Microsoft ActiveSync documentation or
help file.
