Linking A NEO To A PC
The desktop docking station can be connected to a PC so that you can exchange files or
install applications. A USB cable is included with your docking station.
To link NEO to a PC:
•
Insert the hand-held in the desktop docking station.
•
Insert the micro-USB connector into the docking station connector. Attach the other end
of the cable into a USB port on the PC.

Linking A NEO To An Ethernet Network
A micro-USB Ethernet adaptor cable – model number PX3052 – is used to connect NEO to
an Ethernet network through a desktop docking station.
•
Insert the micro-USB connector on the adaptor cable into the micro-USB port on back
the desktop docking station.
•
Connect your network Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on the adaptor cable.
6.5.8.1 Network Access
The hand-held unit automatically detects insertion into the desktop dock and loads the ap-
propriate drivers to communicate with the micro-USB Ethernet converters.
Network Addressing
The host application uses standard TCP/IP protocol to name, locate and communicate with a
specific NEO on the network.
If a link is established between a NEO and a host, the application on the host and on the
hand-held must have a recovery mechanism in the event that NEO is removed from the
dock, interrupting the link.
Note: For information about data transfer with the Windows XP operating system and
ActiveSync or with the Vista operating system, refer to “Data Transfer Between The
PC And The Hand-Held” on page 19.
