• LEARN ABOUT YOUR PHONE AS A WIRELESS MODEM

It is possible to make a serial connection between your phone and your PalmOS device and use it as a wireless modem to perform HotSync operations with your PC.

In addition, third-party software is also available that allows you to browse the Web, send and receive faxes, and send or receive e-mail directly to your PalmOS device. Check your owners manual or the PalmOS web site for more information on third-party software.

Important: To access the Internet, you must have an existing dial-up account with a full-service Internet provider or dial-up access to a corporate network. Connection to on-line services such as CompuServe or Prodigy are not available at this time.

Note: America Online provides a software program that allows you to check your AOL E-mail from your handheld device.

For more information, type AOL keyword: PDA.

• CONNECTION OPTIONS

You can create a connection between your PalmOS device and your phone using either the DLR-3P cable or IR.

DLR-3P cable connection

Most PalmOS devices come with a serial cable used to connect your device with a desktop PC or laptop computer. This cable has either a USB male or an RS-232C female connection at one end and a special connector that plugs into the handheld device (either directly or via a docking cradle).

•If your PalmOS device’s serial cable has the standard RS-232C connector, you need only the DAN-1 (null modem adapter with

RS-232C connectors on each end) supplied in the DLR-3P accessory sales package.

•If your PalmOS device’s serial cable has a USB connector, you need to purchase an additional serial cable with the standard RS-232C connector. The manufacturer of your PalmOS device sells this cable as an accessory. You also need the DAN-1 (null modem adapter with RS-232C connectors on each end) supplied in this sales package.

DAN-1

This adapter is used to join your device’s serial cable to the DLR-3P cable (as shown in the figure below).

Note: Macintosh PalmOS device users do not need to use the RS232 - DB9 adapter.

Important: If you are unable to order the RS-232C serial cable as an accessory, you may be able to purchase a USB-to-RS- 232C adapter. This device may be available at your local computer retailer, or via the Internet. Or you may consider using IR as your connection method.

IR (infrared) connection

Your PalmOS device should be equipped with an infrared port. You may find it more convenient to connect your phone and PalmOS device using IR, especially if you prefer to leave your serial cable or docking cradle attached to your PC.

Before dialing, make sure you enable infrared communications on your PalmOS device, then align the IR ports of the 2 devices. The preferable distance between the two devices in an infrared connection is a range of three inches to three feet maximum. There must be no obstructions between the two devices and the IR ports of the two devices have to be pointing at each other.

Your Nokia phone is a Class 1 Laser Product.
