2.Tap Change Connection Type.
3.Tap IrDA and then tap OK.You can tap Save as Default to always
use IrDA as the connection type.

Help for instructions to connect to those applications using IrDA.
Card reader
The 475 Field Communicator System Card can also communicate with
the Easy Upgrade Utility using a supported Secure Digital card reader.
See the readme file for the supported card readers. You can access
this file from www.fieldcommunicator.com, the Resource CD or DVD,
or the Field Communicator Easy Upgrade Utility menu in the Windows
Start menu (if the Easy Upgrade Utility has been installed.)
CAUTION
Using Windows Explorer and a card reader to manually transfer or
copy files between the System Card and a PC can corrupt the System
Card. This operation should only be performed under the direction of
Technical Support personnel.
The card reader provides faster upload and download speeds than an
IrDA adapter; however, it cannot transfer application licenses, Event
Capture files, or ScratchPad files.
To access the System Card, you need to remove the battery from the
475 Field Communicator. See "Removing the battery and the System
Card" on page 22 for more information.
See the Easy Upgrade Utility Help for instructions to connect a System
Card and card reader.
