PCs, serial devices, printers, etc. The available accessories serve as essential data
communication devices, enabling you to synchronize the information on your terminal with
the information on your host device using ActvieSync. With the appropriate accessory and
software, the terminal can establish a number of connection types, such as a serial
connection and a modem connection.
This chapter provides information on installing the appropriate communication software
and setting up the appropriate accessory to enable communication between the terminal
and the host device.
