invision Serial/Modem Charging Cradle User Guide

Introduction

The invision PS6S1800M serves as an essential data communications device, enabling you to synchronize the information on your Symbol® SPT 1700 or SPT 1800 terminal and the Palm Desktop software using HotSync® technology. It also charges both your terminal and a spare battery – all while performing HotSync operations via modem or serial connection.

Using the PS6S1800M, the SPT 1700 or SPT 1800 can HotSync with a host computer either directly through the serial cable or remotely through the phone lines.
