Transfer Items Using Infrared
Using infrared (IR), you can send and receive information, such as
contacts and appointments, between two devices.
To send information:
1 Switch to the program where you created the item you want to send
and locate the item in the list.
2 Align the IR ports so that they are unobstructed and within a close
range.
3 Tap and hold the item, and tap Beam Item on the pop-up menu.
You can also send items, but not folders, from File Explorer. Tap and hold
the item you want to send, and then tap Beam File on the pop-up menu.
To receive information:
1 Align the IR ports so that they are unobstructed and within a close
range.
2 Have the owner of the other device send the information to you. Your
device will automatically receive it.
Connect to the Internet
You can connect to your ISP, and use the connection to send and receive
e-mail messages and view Web or WAP pages.
You can connect to work in one of two ways:
Create a modem connection. If this is the method you want to use,
see “To create a modem connection to an ISP.”
Use an Ethernet card and a net tap to connect to the network. If this is
the method you want to use, see “To create an Ethernet connection to
an ISP.”
To create a modem connection to an ISP:
1 Obtain the following information from your ISP: ISP dial-up access
telephone number, user name, password, and TCP/IP settings. Some
ISPs require information in front of the user name, such as
MSN/username.
2 If your device does not have a built-in modem, install a modem card,
or use or use a NULL modem cable and appropriate adaptors to
connect an external modem to your device through the serial port.
3 Tap
and then Settings. In the Connections tab, tap Connections.
Under The Internet settings, select Internet Settings and tap Modify.
4 In the Modem tab, tap New.
5 Enter a name for the connection, such as “ISP Connection.”
