The first time you connect successfully to your PC, a dialog box
will prompt you to generate an encryption key by moving your
mouse.
2.
To remove the handheld from the charging cradle, brace the
bottom of the cradle with one hand and gently pull the
handheld up out of the cradle.
Note
The message “Handheld not found” will appear if the PC
cannot detect the handheld on a serial port.
If the handheld and charging cradle cable both appear to be
connected securely, ensure that no other devices are
sharing the serial port, such as a PCMCIA card or IrDA unit.
Ensure that there is no other connectivity software running
on your PC, and that you are not using the same port as
your mouse.
Note
You will be prompted to generate a key the first time you
install the Desktop Software. If you are re-installing or
updating the software, you will not be prompted to generate
a new key. We recommend that you generate a new
encryption key every month for security purposes. See the
Redirector Settings online help for more information on
generating keys.
