Make sure you have no PC Cards (PCMCIA cards) plugged in.

Most laptops have power-saving features that disable the COM ports. Turn these power saving options OFF.

If your PC has an Infrared port, make sure it is disabled and your serial/COM ports are enabled. Psion Teklogix can support you with any of these issues. Check the laptop’s manual or contact the manufacturers support department to get these issues rectified.

3.The ActiveSync Connection server icon is in the bottom right-hand corner of your PC Screen. When you are not connected, it is a grey circle. When you have made a successful connection, it becomes a green circle.

Right-click the ActiveSync icon and choose Connection Settings from the context menu.
