Serial Connection
The connection type must be changed to Serial 1 @ 57600 or Serial 3 @ 57600 depending on which serial port on the
VX3Plus is used.
To change the connection type select
Start > Settings > Control Panel > PC Connection
Tap the Change button. From the popup list, choose
Serial 1 @ 57600 or Serial 3 @ 57600
This will set up the mobile device to use the serial port. Tap OK and ensure the check box for “Allow connection with desktop
computer when device is attached” is checked.
Tap OK to return to the Control Panel. If desired, any control panel windows may be closed.
Select Start > Settings > Scanner and ensure the integrated scanner is set to a port that is NOT the same as the ActiveSync
port.
Connect the correct cable to the PC (the host) and the mobile device (the client). Select “Connect” from the Start Menu on the
client (
Start > Programs > Communications > Connect ).
