Initial set-up

There is no special hardware set-up involved infrared transfers. And if you only want to transfer single entries using [2nd] [GET] and [2nd] [SEND], there is no software set-up either: all you have to do initially is set up the units properly so they use the same path (step 4 below). For all other infrared transfers, follow the procedure below.

1.Press [MENU] four times on both units to open the PERIPHERALS menu.

2.Select SELECT PORT

A submenu opens.

Select IR.

Place the two Organizers so that their infrared ports are facing each other and are no more than 80 cm apart.

During transfers, do not leave the cover more than three- quarters open or it will interrupt the infrared transfer.

When transferring entire applications or files, or entries marked as secret, both Organizersmust be unlocked (see p.83).

Avoid direct sunlight.

Keep the infrared port clean with a soft, dry cloth. Dust on the port could cause a transfer to fail.

*Although infrared transfer requires no special hardware, it is easily affected by ambientconditions and other factors such as external light, weak batteries, large transfer distance, transfer angle, etc. As a result, while infrared transfer is very convenient, there is a strong likelihood of data transfer failure, incomplete data transfer (missing data) or other errors occurring. It is therefore recommended that you check the received data thoroughly after making an infrared transfer.

Transfer single entries

Single entries can be transferred in all applications.

1.Turn on both Organizers.

2.On the sending Organizer, select the entry you want to send.

3.Press [2nd] [GET] on the receiving Organizer.

4.Press [2nd] [SEND] on the sending Organizer.

The selected entry is transferred and appended to data in the appropriate application.

*You can also transfer sinale entries usina UNIT TO UNIT TRANSFER in the PERlPiERALS menuTIn step 3, after opening the same application as on the sending Organizer, select GET DATA (APPEND) on the receiving Organizer. Then, in step 4, select SEND SELECTED ENTRY on the sending Organizer.
