M600

February 2006
Bluetooth™ wireless technology,
infrared or cable
M600 always synchronizes using SyncML,
regardless of connection type. It connects via
Bluetooth™ wireless technology, infrared or cable.
The cable is connected directly to the phone or via
the desktop charger connector.
Automatic synchronisation
Synchronisation can be configured to start
automatically, given that a suitable synchronisation
program must be running on the other device:
•
When the USB cable is plugged in to M600.
•
When Bluetooth is activated on both devices
and they come into operating range.
•
When infrared is activated on both devices and
the infrared sensors are aligned.
Intelligent process
A synchronization engine performs the task of
synchronizing. For local synchronization, the
synchronization engine is an application that runs
on the desktop computer. The synchronization
engine compares, updates and resolves conflicts
to ensure that the information in the phone is the
same as that in the computer.
Compatibility
The PC software, supplied with the phone, enables
synchronization with the following applications:
•
Microsoft
®
Outlook
®
Express 4.0, 5.x.
•
Microsoft
®
Exchange.
•
Microsoft
®
Outlook
®
2000, 2002, 2003.
•
Microsoft
®
Internet Explorer 5.0 and 6.0 (for
Bookmark synchronization).
•
Lotus Notes
®
5.0, 6.0, 6.5.
The PC requirements are as follows:
•
120Mb free space on hard disk.
•
Microsoft
®
Windows
®
2000 (SP4) or XP Profes-
sional or Home (SP2).
•
Minimum recommended hardware configuration
for the version of Windows in use.
File transfer utility
A utility is provided which enables files to be
transferred to and from M600 connected to a PC.
Typical uses for this include:
•
Archiving pictures taken on M600 to PC stor-
age.
•
Moving images to M600 to use in personaliza-
tion, MMS messages etc.
•
Storing MP3 files on M600 or the Memory
stick™.
•
Moving sound clips to/from M600 for personal-
ization.
•
Store work documents (Word, Excel) on M600
to read on the move.
Backup and restore
Backup is initiated from the connected PC. Note
that the USB cable must be used for backup.
Infrared or Bluetooth wireless technology cannot
be used for this purpose. Files in the user data area
(which includes loaded third party applications) are
backed up to PC storage.
The restore utility takes stored data from the PC
and places it back on to M600.
Language change utility
M600 has a larger, richer UI compared to an
ordinary mobile phone. Applications often have
help information. Consequently, it is impractical to
store languages on the phone. To facilitate a
language change, a PC utility is provided which
enables the required language to be loaded on
M600. The Language Change Utility is not available
for Chinese models.
Software installation utility
This utility enables M600 applications to be
installed from the PC.
Internet wizard
This utility assists the user to create 3G, GPRS,
HSCSD and CSD connection definitions for
Internet and email use. All the necessary
information can be entered in a logical way. Set
infrared status to Modem in the Control Panel to
use this facility over infrared.
Object exchange - 'send as'
M600 makes it easy to transfer objects over
Bluetooth, infrared and Messages. This is
presented to the user via 'Send as' commands in
applications. Simply select an item such as a
contact, select 'Send as' and select the method to
