Wasp HC1 User Manual
Chapter 3 – Getting Connected
The HC1 enables users to link to a host computer using an RS-232 cable, or Bluetooth, WiFi,
or GPRS connection for data communication. This chapter provides an overview of the HC1
communication options.
3.1 Establishing Device – PC Connection
3.1.1 Installing Microsoft ActiveSync (XP Users Only)
If you are running the Microsoft XP operating system, in order to exchange data between your
computer and the HC1, Microsoft Active-Sync must be installed on your computer. Use the
USB/RS232 charging cable that comes with your device or the docking station to connect the
device to your computer.
NOTES:
If you have a previous version of the Microsoft ActiveSync installed in your computer,
uninstall it first before installing the latest version of Microsoft ActiveSync.
If you are running Windows 7, you do not need to install ActiveSync. You will use
Windows Mobile Center rather than ActiveSync.
To install Microsoft ActiveSync on your computer:
1.
Close any open programs, including those that run at startup, and disable any
virus-scanning software.
2.
Download the ActiveSync software from the Microsoft ActiveSync Download page at
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?Fami-lyID=7269173a-28bf-4cac-a682

Browse to the location of the downloaded file, and double-click it. The installation wizard
begins.
4.
Follow the instructions on the screen to install Microsoft ActiveSync.
