Configuring the Remote Host PC
The remote PC you wish to HotSync the SPT 1700 to must be set
up for Network HotSync and configured to run from the network.
1. Make sure HotSync Manager is installed and running.
2. From the HotSync Manager, make sure Network is checked.
If you don’t want HotSync Manager to use a serial port, make
sure Local is unchecked.
Note:
The PC must be configured for proper TCP/IP network
operation.
The HotSync Process
Once the CRD2700-4000E is properly connected, insert a
terminal in the cradle to automatically HotSync the terminal. All
local slots in the cradle operate simultaneously.
If multiple slots are to be HotSync’d simultaneously, each must
communicate with a different host PC. If the application requires
simultaneous connection to a single host database, additional
software, available from Symbol, is required.
Terminals inserted into daisy-chained cradles are HotSync’d in a
round-robin fashion simultaneously with any HotSyncs from local
slots. Daisy-chained cradles share a logical “fifth slot” on the
CRD2700-4000E, which, while it shares equal priority with the
local slots, allows only one HotSync at a time.
Performing HotSync
To initiate communication between
the terminal and the host, gently
insert the SPT 1700 terminal into a
local cradle slot, or a slot on an
inter-connected serial cradle.
When properly inserted, the slot’s
LED turns red, then flashes green,
indicating that the host and
