Characteristics

The HID configuration files, and the set of preloaded HID configuration files, are customiza- ble. The configuration files can be modified by the user if transferred to, and opened on, a computer.

Used Enablers and bearers

The HID based remote control function works over Bluetooth. It is possible to download the HID configuration files via Bluetooth, infrared or a cable as well as via WAP. It is also possible to transfer the files to another device using Bluetooth or infrared.

Power save mode

The phone uses sniff mode on headset, handsfree and HID connections which means reduced power consumption and shorter connection set-up times.

IrDA

IrDA (Infrared Data Association) is a point-to-point communication link between two infrared ports. The infrared beam has to be directed towards the target infrared port and as long as the two infrared ports are within sight and range, the devices can exchange data. For optimal performance, place the phone within 20 centimetres and at an angle of max 30 degrees to the infrared port on the compu- ter/PDA, or other phone. An advantage of the necessary proximity of devices is reduced risk of transmitting data to other nearby devices.

An infrared link is a serial connection, which means that data bits are sent one after another in a long stream. The IrDA–SIR Data Link Standard is a protocol that makes transmission of data faultless. The standard provides a high level of noise immunity, which means that the connection is not affected by fluorescent light and electromagnetic fields – making it suitable for the modern office environment.

Object Exchange via infrared (IrObex) supports transferring objects between compatible phones and computers. These objects are not only limited to ring signals, but even pictures, bookmarks and other files in the file system.

Key benefits of using the phone with its built-in infrared transceiver:•True wireless communication•Low power consumption•Secure data transmission with the IrDA DATA standard•Ability to send and receive email and data on the connected computer/PDA
•Ability to connect to the Internet from the con- nected computer/PDA•Ability to synchronize the phone book from a computer

•Exchange of business cards and calendar events with vCard/vCalendar compatible devices

•Exchange of ringtones and other files between compatible phones•Ability to attach a photo from a digital camera in outgoing email•Ability to send and exchange notes with vNote compability devices

Connection via cable

The infrared connection is not always the best solution when connecting to a computer/PDA. Indeed, it is not always even possible. The USB cable provides connectivity between the phone and a computer and is included in the phone kit.
