IR HotSync operations
Your communicator is equipped with an infrared (IR) port that supports the IrCOMM
implementation of the standards for infrared communication established by the Infrared Data
Association (IrDA). This means that you can beam data to any other device that supports the
IrCOMM implementation of the IrDA standards. Most importantly, you can use the IR port to
perform HotSync operations. When you use the IR port on your communicator to perform
HotSync operations, you don’t need your HotSync cable. You simply enable infrared
communication on your computer and your communicator and then perform an IR HotSync
operation. So there’s no need to carry your cable when you’re on the road with an infrared-enabled
laptop.
Preparing your computer for infrared communication
To perform an IR HotSync operation, the computer you want to synchronize with must have an
enabled infrared port or be connected to an infrared device that supports the IrCOMM
implementation of the IrDA standards.
Desktop computers are likely to require an infrared device attached to a physical port. Laptops
are likely to have a built-in IR port. Your computer must also have an installed infrared driver.
