Beaming information

Beaming information

Your Treo 700P smartphone is equipped with an IR (infrared) port so that you can beam information to another Palm OS® device with an IR port. The IR port is located on the top of your smartphone, between the antenna and the Ringer switch, behind the small dark shield.

Beaming an entry

You can beam an individual entry or item such as a contact or a picture. You can also beam all the entries in the selected category, such as all the contacts in the Business or Family category.

1.Select the entry or category you want to beam. You cannot beam an item that has a lock next to it.

2.Open the menus .

3.Select Record, and then select one of the following:

Beam: Sends an individual record.

Beam Category: Sends all entries in the current category.

4.When the Beam Status dialog box appears, point the IR port on your Treo smartphone directly at the IR port of the receiving device.

Tip

For best results, the path between the two devices must be clear of obstacles, and both devices must be stationary. If you have difficulty beaming, shorten the distance and avoid bright sunlight.

Tip

Beam your business card in two key presses: From the Main View in the Phone application, open the menus, and then press the “M” key.

Did You Know?

If you beam a bookmark or saved page from the web browser, it beams the URL, not the contents of that page.
