Editing connections
The following example shows you how to edit the IR to Phone
connection to adjust the communication speed; you can similarly edit
other connections or settings. You can use the IR to Phone connection
to perform a remote IR HotSync operation. To accomplish the
HotSync operation, your PC companion sends data through its IR port
to a modem attached to or within a mobile phone, which then dials a
modem attached to or within your desktop computer, to synchronize
with your Palm Desktop software for IBM WorkPad.
To edit the IR to Phone connection:
1. Select the IR to Phone connection and tap Edit.
2. Tap Details.
Modem via Cradle/Cable:
A cable connection
between your handheld’s universal connector and a
modem for dialing in to a modem that is part of
your computer or laptop.
PC via Infrared:
A connection between the IR port of
your PC companion and the infrared device of your
computer or laptop.
Modem via Infrared:
A connection between the IR
port of your PC companion and a modem. The
