Infrared Data Transfer
Using the computer’s built-in infrared communication port (IrDA compliant), you
can transfer data to and from other computers with an infrared port.
NOTE
Infrared data transfer requires that
the handle not be blocking the
channel of communications.
Infrared Communication Port
Assuming two computers, it is necessary to make the appropriate settings on both computers so
that the addresses of the infrared communication ports can be used. It is recommended that the
distance between the two infrared communication ports is between 20 cm (0.65 feet) and 50 cm
(1.64 feet).
Data transfer may be affected if there is a TV, VCR, wireless headphone set, incandescent bulb,
or stove nearby, or if the computers are in direct sunlight.
TranXit can be used to perform data synchronization (updating the file and data
information on both computers to the latest version) and to transfer files between
two computers.
NOTE
TranXit must be installed on both computers for data transfer. Also, it is necessary to assign
a different "Computer Name" to each computer; use [Setup]-[Computer Name] to change the
name.
If you use TranXit software, please refer to its on-line Quick Reference Guide.
(Click [Start]-[Programs]-[Panasonic]-[TranXit Quick Reference Guide].)
Exit TranXit software before entering the suspend or hibernation mode. Start TranXit again
after the computer resumes.
