Operation of the Portsmith Cradle Driver

The Portsmith Cradle Driver is designed to provide seamless TCP/IP connectivity without user intervention. The driver automatically provides the following functions:

•Detection of the PDA’s presence in a Portsmith Ethernet Cradle.

•Configuration of the PDA to provide TCP/IP communication over the attached Ethernet network. This includes IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, and DNS server.

•Session termination upon removal from the cradle.

•Connection and docking status information and visual feedback.

•Optional synchronization upon insertion into the cradle.

•Optional network connection establishment upon insertion into the cradle.

•Preservation of modem communication settings, if set.

Upon insertion into the Ethernet cradle, the Driver will briefly display the splash screen shown below while it is configuring the communication session. This is visual confirmation that the PDA is docking with the cradle.

The Status and Configuration Screen

The driver’s status and configuration form may be viewed by selecting the PSCradle icon in the Palm Application Launcher . The following form will be displayed.

The items on this screen are described below:
