Using the Infrared Connection

As an alternative to using the desktop cradle, you can synchronize your Pocket PC and your computer using the infrared connection if you have an infrared port or an infrared USB adapter installed on your computer. The infrared connection option works only on computers that have Microsoft Windows 98SE, Me, 2000, or XP operating systems installed.

To set up an infrared connection to a computer:

1.Synchronize your Pocket PC with your computer using the desktop cradle before the first time you establish an ActiveSync connection via infrared.

2.Follow your computer manufacturer’s instructions to install and set up an infrared port.

3.Remove the Pocket PC from the cradle and line up the infrared port with the computer infrared port so they are unobstructed and within 12 inches (30.5 cm) of each other.
