Hand Held Products 7900 manual Using Infrared, Verify That the IrDA Port is Enabled

Using Infrared

Dolphin 7900 terminals contain an IrDA port on the top panel (see IrDa Port on page 3-2). Using the IrDA port, you can send and receive data between the terminal and other devices equipped with infrared. This can include, but is not limited to, Windows Mobile information such as Contacts and Tasks, as well as software upgrades.

Verify That the IrDA Port is Enabled

The IrDA port must be enabled to transmit data. By default, the IrDA port is assigned to Com port 6 and is enabled. When a Bluetooth radio is installed, the IrDA port can be disabled to free up a Com port for Bluetooth devices.

To verify that the IrDA port is enabled, tap Start > Settings > Connections tab > IrDA .

If Enable IrDA ports is selected, then the IrDA port is active.

Note: The IrDA icon appears on the Connections tab only if there is a Bluetooth radio installed on the terminal.
