Connecting to and Disconnecting from the Network

To connect a Windows CE handheld device to the network through the Clarinet EthIR Switch:

1.Face your device’s infrared port directly toward any EthIR Beam connected to the Switch.

2.Establish a remote connection by double clicking on the IR icon in the Remote Networking applet or click its shortcut on your desktop. A

Connection window pops up to display the status of the connection.

Note: As events occur, they are displayed in the status window, such as handshaking and user authentication. Audio notice is provided once a session successfully starts or fails to start.

3.If an error occurs while a connection is being established, the device repeats the connection attempt four times as displayed in the pop-up status window. Wait until all four attempts fail before taking further action. If all four attempts fail, repeat steps 1 and 2.

Troubleshooting Note: A common connection failure occurs when incorrect IP addresses are entered into the IP Pool or are IPs that are already in use by other users on the network.
