Establishing Device-PC Connection
Installing Microsoft ActiveSync
In order to exchange data between your computer and the PA520, 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.

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.

any virus-scanning software.
2. Download the ActiveSync software from the Microsoft ActiveSync Download
page at

3. Browse to the location of the downloaded file, and double-click it. The
installation wizard begins.
