Microsoft ActiveSync
Using Microsoft ActiveSync, you can synchronise the information on your desktop computer
with the information on your device. Synchronisation compares the data on your device with
your desktop computer and updates both computers with the most recent information. For
example:
• Keep Pocket Outlook data up-to-date by synchronising your device with Microsoft Outlook
data on your desktop computer.
• Synchronise Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel files between your device and desktop
computer. Your files are automatically converted to the correct format.
• Back up and restore your device data.
• Copy (rather than synchronise) files between your device and desktop computer.
• Control when synchronisation occurs by selecting a synchronisation mode. For example,
you can synchronise continually while connected to your desktop computer or only when
you choose the synchronise command.
• Select which information types are synchronised and control how much data is
synchronised. For example, you can choose how many weeks of past appointments you
want synchronised.
Installing ActiveSync on PC
Insert the Companion CD containing ActiveSync into the optical drive of your computer,
and then follow the instructions on the screen to complete installation.
To ensure that synchronisation works properly, you must install Microsoft ActiveSync on your
computer before connecting your PDA phone to the computer.
Setting up a sync relationship
After you have installed ActiveSync on your PC, you can begin to connect your PDA phone to
the PC. Take the included data cable and connect the mini-USB end to your PDA phone’s
mini-USB socket and the USB end to your computer’s USB socket.
Once the data cable connects the PDA phone to the PC, the PDA phone will emit a sound
indicating connection found. On the PC side, a Synchronization Setup Wizard will
automatically pop up.
