Linking A NEO To A PC

•Remove the battery, and clean the contacts on the battery and the charge well.

•Inspect the charge well contacts for damage (are they bent, flattened, twisted or broken).

•Try inserting a battery that you know to be working in the charge well.

•Reconnect the power cable, and check that the charge well indicator flashes at powerup.

6.5.7Linking A NEO To A PC

The desktop docking station can be connected to a PC so that you can exchange files or install applications. A USB cable is included with your docking station.

Note: For information about data transfer with the Windows XP operating system and ActiveSync or with the Vista operating system, refer to “Data Transfer Between The PC And The Hand-Held” on page 19.

To link NEO to a PC:

•Insert the hand-held in the desktop docking station.

•Insert the micro-USB connector into the docking station connector. Attach the other end of the cable into a USB port on the PC.

6.5.8Linking A NEO To An Ethernet Network

A micro-USB Ethernet adaptor cable – model number PX3052 – is used to connect NEO to an Ethernet network through a desktop docking station.

•Insert the micro-USB connector on the adaptor cable into the micro-USB port on back the desktop docking station.

•Connect your network Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on the adaptor cable.

6.5.8.1Network Access

The hand-held unit automatically detects insertion into the desktop dock and loads the ap- propriate drivers to communicate with the micro-USB Ethernet converters.

Network Addressing

The host application uses standard TCP/IP protocol to name, locate and communicate with a specific NEO on the network.

If a link is established between a NEO and a host, the application on the host and on the hand-held must have a recovery mechanism in the event that NEO is removed from the dock, interrupting the link.
