4.Place the two units so that their infrared ports are in line and within 80 cm of each other.

Do not leave the unit cover more than three-quarters open during transfer or it will break the infrared transfer.

When transferring entire applications or files, or entries marked as secret, both units must be unlocked (see p.

282).

Although infrared transfer requires no special hardware, it is easily affected by ambient conditions and other factors such as external light, undercharged batteries, large transfer distance, transfer angle, etc. As a result, while infrared transfer is in itself quite easy, there is considerable scope for errors, failure to transfer data and incomplete data transfer (missing data). It is therefore recommended that you confirm the received data after an infrared transfer.

Avoid direct sunlight.

Keep the infrared port clean with a soft, dry cloth. Dust on the port will make transfer difficult.
