3.8 Uploading Data In A Docking Station
The desktop docking station and quad docking station are typically used to upload transac-
tion data to a server computer when a radio link is not available.
The desktop docking station can complete batch uploads to a Client USB connected PC or
server. An optional 10/100baseT Ethernet module is also available.
Unlike the desktop docking station, the quad docking station supports only TCP/IP connec-
tions to a PC or server through a 10/100baseT Ethernet connection.
When an Ikôn is properly inserted in a docking station, a dock icon is displayed in
the navigation bar at the top of the screen. The Ikôn also detects the presence of the
Ethernet network.
3.9 Bluetooth Radio
The Ikôn is equipped with an on-board Bluetooth radio. This type of radio enables short
range data communication between devices. The Bluetooth also provides the capability to
use a Bluetooth-enabled cellular phone as a data modem, exchanging information with other
Bluetooth devices. Refer to “The Bluetooth GPRS Phone” on page 206 for setup details.
3.9.1 Pairing A Bluetooth Headset
Before pairing a headset or any other Bluetooth device with your Ikôn, make certain that
the Bluetooth device power is enabled; it is enabled by default. If, for some reason, it has
been disabled:
Important: Review the documentation provided with the user application installed in
your Ikôn before performing data uploads.
Note: Refer to “Chargers And Docking Stations” on page 252 for more details.
Note: Integrated Bluetooth radios are standard on Ikôn units. Keep in mind also that Blu-
etooth is available simultaneously with WAN and 802.11g on a single Ikôn.
Note: Headset pairing information is also available in the Getting Started Centre in the
Today screen on your Ikôn.
