Chapter 3: Getting To Know The 8515

Connecting An 8515 To A Windows 2000 Or XP PC

3.10Connecting An 8515 To A Windows 2000 Or XP PC

ActiveSync®—Microsoft®PC connectivity software— can be used to connect the 8515 to a Windows 2000 or XP PC (desktop or laptop) running this software. By connecting the 8515 to a computer with a cable and running ActiveSync on the PC you will be able to:

•View 8515 files from Windows Explorer.

•Drag and drop files between the 8515 and the PC in the same way that you would between PC drives.

•Back up 8515 files to the PC, then restore them from the PC to the vehicle-mount again, if needed, etc.

To install ActiveSync, follow the step-by-step instructions provided with the program’s setup wizard. Refer to the following website for details:

http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/resources/downloads/pocketpc/activesync35.mspx

Note:	You’ll need to run an application—usbsetup.exe—to configure Windows to
	recognize the 8515. For information about this USB application, refer to
	Appendix C: “USB Setup Application”.

3.11Connecting An 8515 To A Windows Vista™ PC

Device connections to a PC are handled by different applications for Windows Vista™ and Windows XP or earlier.

Unlike earlier Windows operating systems, ActiveSync (see Section 3.10) is not used to connect devices to Windows Vista™. The Windows Vista™ ‘Windows Mobile Device Center’ makes the connection automatically. The Windows Mobile Device Center helps you to set up new partnerships, synchronize and manage information, and transfer files between your device and PC. Refer to the following website for details:

http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/devicecenter.mspx

When a connection is established with the Psion Teklogix 8515 Vehicle-Mount Computer running Windows Embedded CE 5.0, you will be able to map to the drive and deploy soft- ware (however, it will not be recognized by the Windows Mobile Device Center).
