44 HP Jornada 700 Series Handheld PC
If you use the COM port of your desktop PC for other devices, or
if you have disconnected your HP Jornada and need to re-
establish the connection, you can establish a manual connection
using the PC Link program on your HP Jornada.
The infrared port on your HP Jornada provides a
convenient way to connect to an IrDA-equipped PC without
using a cable or cradle (optional on the HP Jornada 710).
Many notebook computers have built-in infrared ports;
however, you may need to install and configure an infrared
port on a desktop PC. To install the port, follow the
manufacturer's instructions. More information about
infrared drivers for Windows 95/98 or Windows 2000 is
available on the MS Windows for H/PC 2000 Web site at
www.microsoft.com/mobile. (Infrared connection is not
available for Windows NT.)
3. On the Sync Mode tab, select either the "Continuously
while the device is connected" or the "Only on
connection" check box to activate automatic connection.
To connect manually
1. On the HP Jornada Start menu, point to Programs,
point to Communications, and then tap PC Link.
2. The Connection Status dialog box appears.
3. After a few moments a sound indicates that the
connection has been established.
To close the connection
1. On your HP Jornada, double-tap the connection
icon in the status area of the task bar.
2. In the Connection Status dialog box, tap
Disconnect.
