HotSync® Operations
IR HotSync Operations
Your phone is equipped with an infrared (IR) port that
supports the IrCOMM implementation of the standards for
infrared communication established by the Infrared Data
Association (IrDA). This means that not only can you beam
data to another Palm OS® handheld that is equipped with an
IR port, but you can also beam data to a cell phone and any
other device that supports the IrCOMM implementation of the
IrDA standards. Most importantly, you can use the IR port to
perform HotSync operations. This is especially useful if you
travel with an infrared-enabled laptop. You simply enable
infrared communication on your laptop and handheld and
follow the steps in “Performing an IR HotSync operation”
later in this section.
Preparing your computer for infrared communication
Before you can perform a HotSync operation using the IR port,
the desktop computer must have the following requirements:
䊳
The computer must support the IrCOMM implementation
of the IrDA standards.
䊳
The computer must have an enabled infrared port that is
built into the computer, or an enabled infrared device
attached to the computer.
Desktop computers are likely to require an infrared device
attached to a physical COM port. Laptop computers are likely
to have a built-in IR port, so no external device is necessary.
Your computer must also have an installed infrared driver.
Check your computer’s documentation to learn if the
computer supports infrared communication. If your desktop
computer uses Microsoft® Windows 98 or Windows 2000,
infrared communication is built into the operating system.
