Installing and Using the Portsmith Cradle Driver on Your PDA

The Portsmith Cradle Driver must be installed and configured on the PDA before the PDA can communicate through the Ethernet cradle. The Portsmith Cradle Driver automatically detects if the PDA is in the Portsmith Ethernet Cradle and automatically configures the PDA for TCP/IP communication over the attached Ethernet network.

Installing the Portsmith Cradle Driver

The Portsmith Cradle Driver is named PSCradle.prc. This driver may be downloaded from the Portsmith web site on the Internet with the following steps.

1.On a PC configured for HotSync® Manager local synchronization through a serial or USB synchronization cradle, open the web browser.

2.In the address bar of the web browser, enter the following address: http://www.portsmith.com/psdwnld.

3.When the web page appears, select the appropriate model of cradle and PDA.

4.Select the link to download the Portsmith Cradle Driver (PSCradle.prc)

5.Your web browser should prompt you to either open or save the file. Select the open option.

6.If HotSync® Manager is configured for more than one PDA, the HotSync® Install Tool will prompt you to select where to install the file. Select the identity associated with the PDA where you want to install the driver.

7.If you wish to enable the PDA to synchronize over the network with this desktop machine, you must enable network mode in HotSync® Manager. On a Windows® computer, this can be done by right clicking on the HotSync® icon in the Windows® system tray. If the “Network” option is not checked, Select it by clicking on “Network” in the menu.

8.Perform a local synchronization between the desktop computer and the PDA where you want to install the driver. This is done by placing the PDA in the local HotSync® cradle and pressing the HotSync® button. When the synchronization completes, the driver will be installed on the PDA.

Tip: You can also install the Portsmith Cradle Driver on a PDA by beaming it from another PDA on which it has already been installed.
