Chapter 3: Getting To Know NEO

Uploading Data In A Docking Station

3.8Uploading Data In A Docking Station

Important: Review the documentation provided with the user application installed in your NEO before performing data uploads.

The desktop docking station and quad docking station are typically used to upload transac- tion data to a server computer when a radio link is not available.

Note: Refer to “Desktop Docking Station – PX3001” on page 188 for more details.

The desktop docking station can complete batch uploads to a Client USB connected PC or server. An optional 10/100baseT Ethernet connection can be used via the USB to Ethernet cable (Model No. PX3052).

Unlike the desktop docking station, the quad docking station supports only TCP/IP connec- tions to a PC or server through a 10/100baseT Ethernet connection.

When a NEO is properly inserted in a docking station, a dock icon is displayed in the navi- gation bar at the top of the screen. The unit also detects the presence of the

Ethernet network.

3.9Bluetooth Radio

Note: Integrated Bluetooth Class 2 radios are standard on ‘connected’ NEOs – that is, units equipped with 802.11 radios. On ‘batch’ (unconnected) units, Bluetooth is an optional feature.

The Bluetooth radio enables short range data communication between devices. In addition, it provides the capability to use a Bluetooth-enabled cellular phone as a data modem, ex- changing information with other Bluetooth devices and providing network access. You can also pair your hand-set with a Bluetooth headset. Refer to “Bluetooth Setup” on page 102 for setup details.
