Communications
Using a Four-Slot USB-to-Ethernet Cradle
In order to establish a connection between the terminal and the host computer to
communicate over an Ethernet network, the following must be done:
• configuration of the terminal
• configuration of the host computer
• configuration of the DHCP server
• configuration of the cradle.
Configuration of the Terminal
When you insert a terminal into the cradle, the cradle provides a direct-connect RAS
service. You need to configure each terminal for use with the cradle, just as you would
configure any remote client to connect to an Internet Service Provider (ISP). To configure
the terminal install eConnect. See
Installing eConnect on page 4-9.
Configuration of the Host Computer
The host computer that you intend to synchronize with the terminal must be setup with the
appropriate communication software and connection settings. This guide assumes that you
are using Microsoft
®
ActiveSync software on both the terminal and the host computer. To
configure the host computer:
1. Download and install ActiveSync. See Installing ActiveSync on page 4-3.
2. Configure the connection settings. The host computer must be configured for TCP/
IP network communications.
a. Click on the ActiveSync icon from the system tray
b. Tap File - Connection settings.
c. In the Connection settings dialog box, select the Allow Network (Ethernet) and
Remote Access Service (RAS) server connection with this desktop computer
option.
You may have other options selected, for example, Allow serial cable or infrared
connection to this COM port.
d. Click the
OK
button.
Note: Before communicating through an ethernet connection, you must
create a partnership between your terminal and your host computer.
See
Setting up a Partnership on page 4-4 for detailed instructions.
