Sony Ericsson T68ie manual Local synchronization software and the T68i

Network operators

As multiple applications that need remote synchronization over WAP are developed, there will be an automatic growth of reve- nue for network operators.

Local synchronization

Open standard

Synchronization is possible with almost any groupware or office program, since the synchronization method complies with the open standard IrMC 1.1, as specified by the Infrared Data Association – reference http:// www.irda.org. IrMC 1.1 brings together the following standards:

vCard 2.1 for address book information

vCalendar 1.0 for appointment and to-do information

ObEx (Object Exchange) for data exchange

Bluetooth wireless technology or infrared

The T68i synchronizes using the same protocol, regardless of connection type. It connects via Bluetooth wireless technology, infrared or cable. The cable is connected either directly to the phone or to the desktop charger.

Automatic synchronization

When infrared or Bluetooth wireless technology is switched on in the phone, the synchronization process starts automatically, as soon as the phone is within range of a compatible port on a PC or handheld device (a suitable synchronization program must be running on the device).

Intelligent process

A synchronization engine performs the task of synchronizing. For local synchronization, the synchronization engine is an application that runs on the desktop computer. The synchronization engine compares, updates and resolves conflicts to ensure that the information in the phone is the same as that in the computer.

Local synchronization software and the T68i

PCs equipped with XTNDConnect PC For Ericsson will perform synchronization with Microsoft Outlook. For other groupware environments (Lotus Notes, etc.), the full version of XTNDConnect PC is required. By using Bluetooth wireless technology, infrared or the RS 232 Cable, you can easily perform a fast, local

synchronization.

Integration between XTNDConnect PC For Ericsson and Microsoft Outlook provides an embedded menu for one-key synchronization.

To enhance functionality and compatibility further, the synchronization software can easily be upgraded.

The number of units that can talk to each other is unlimited. One phone can be partner with several PCs. This ensures that information from both the work PC and the home PC can be synchronized with the phone. For users that have both a desktop PC and a laptop (free version XTNDConnect PC) or a PDA (free version XTNDConnect PC), it is an efficient way to synchronize data with the phone. This way, data can also be transferred between PCs to keep them in sync.

If the synchronization software is upgraded to a full version of XTNDConnect PC, one PC can be partnered with several different phones. This is vital if, for example, each member in a work group has his/her own T68i, and needs to synchronize with a PC. It makes it easy, for example, to download a common company phone directory to the phone book in each company mobile phone. With the full version of the synchronization software, other phone types and handheld devices, such as PDAs and Windows CE computers, can also be synchronized.

XTNDConnect PC For Ericsson

This synchronization software can be downloaded from www.SonyEricssonMobile.com and provides a powerful set of functions:

T68i phone book and calendar synchroni- zation with Microsoft Outlook.

An embedded synchronization in Microsoft Outlook, providing one-key syn- chronization and allowing the user to con- trol the synchronization process with easy- to-use settings.

PC applications supported by XTNDCon- nect PC For Ericsson:

Microsoft Outlook 97, 98, 2000

Platforms for using XTNDConnect PC For Ericsson:

Windows 98, Me (Millennium Edition), Windows NT 4.0 and 2000.
