Starting the Connectivity Software Testing Your Connection

Once you have selected a communi- cations port, you do not need to se- lect it again, unless you change the port you are using.

3.On your BOOKMAN Sidekick, press MENU, highlight PC Connect on the Setup menu, and then press ENTER.

The BOOKMAN Sidekick remains in this state until you start linking, transferring, or merging.

4.You now can test the connection. To learn how, read “Testing Your Connection.”

➤Shutoff During Connection

If your BOOKMAN Sidekick automati- cally shuts off while connected to your computer, do not worry. Simply turn your BOOKMAN Sidekick back on and then select PC Connect from the Setup menu to reconnect.

You should test the connection when you connect your BOOKMAN Sidekick and your computer for the first time, whenever you have disconnected the serial cable, or if you forget which com- munications port you are using.

Note: You do not need to select a COM port on the BOOKMAN Sidekick Connec- tivity main window before you click Test.

1.At the main window of the BOOKMAN Sidekick Connectiv- ity software, click Test.

The BOOKMAN Sidekick Port Finder window appears.

2.Click Start.

If the Status box says that your BOOK- MAN Sidekick is not detected on any communications port, make sure that the serial cable is fully inserted in the serial port and that you have selected PC Connect from the Setup menu of your BOOKMAN Sidekick.

3.Click OK when finished.

4.Make sure the selected COM port matches the communica- tions port found by the test.
