As your netBook can communicate with various devices, you need to make sure that the communications link setting on your netBook is set correctly to communicate with your PC using PsiWin.

∙Move to the System screen. Select link to desktop from the Tools menu and select the cable setting.

The cable is used by your netBook and PC to communicate. To connect the cable:

1.Locate the COM port (or serial port) on your PC, usually found at the rear of your computer. Insert the larger connector on the cable into the port on your PC.

2.Locate the serial port on your netBook and insert the smaller connector into the port.

Note: If you have difficulty connecting the cable to your netBook, you may be attempting to insert the connector upside down. You should not have to apply force when inserting the connector into the port on your netBook.

Further help: See the on-line Help for more details on how to connect your PC and netBook, and troubleshooting information to help you solve any problems.

If you have a docking station, you can connect your cable to it. Connection is made each time you place your netBook in it.

Connecting via Infrared

It is also possible to connect using infrared if your PC is IR equipped. To do this, select “Infrared” from the link to desktop menu. After ensuring that the PC is configured to use IR, line up the two IR ports, and connect.
