Returning to cradle/cable HotSync operations
It’s easy to return to using the cradle/cable for HotSync operations. You can even leave the HotSync application on your handheld set to perform IR HotSync operations and still use the cradle/cable. This is useful if you perform HotSync operations with both your desktop computer and a laptop that you travel with. When you travel, you don’t have to carry the cradle/cable because your handheld is set to perform IR HotSync operations. When you’re in the office, just connect your handheld to the cradle/cable and press the HotSync button.
To return to cradle/cable HotSync operations on a Windows com- puter:
1.If needed, connect the cradle/cable to a serial (COM) port on your computer.
2.Click the HotSync Manager icon 
in the Windows system tray.
3.Choose Setup, and then click Local.
