11 Exchanging and updating data using HotSync operations Performing a HotSync operation via a network

To perform a HotSync operation via a network, you must meet the following requirements:

Your computer has TCP/IP support installed.

Both your company’s network system and its remote access server support TCP/IP. (Your system administrator has this information.)

You have a remote access account. (If you don’t have an account, consult your system administrator.)

Everything you need to connect to your company’s dial-in server (network modem) is included in the Palm Desktop software and in your Acer s10. You need to activate the feature, however, on both Palm Desktop software and on your Acer s10.

To prepare your computer for a network HotSync operation:

1Click the HotSync Manager icon in the Windows system tray.

2From the HotSync Manager menu, choose Network.

3From the HotSync Manager menu, choose Setup.

4Click the Network tab and make sure that a check mark appears next to your user name. If no check mark appears, select the check box next to your user name.

5Click OK.

6Place your Acer s10 in the cradle, and perform a HotSync operation.

The HotSync operation records network information about your computer on your Acer s10. With this information, your Acer s10 can locate your computer when you perform a HotSync operation over the network.
