and receive data via infrared. Tap Start > Settings > Connections tab > Beam.
Receive all incoming beams... must be checked for the terminal to receive infrared data from another
device.
Sending Data
You can send and receive information via infrared, including software programs (.exe files).
To send or receive, the IrDA ports of both devices must be aligned with each other and within a close
range. The maximum data-transfer speed is 115 Kbps.
1. Align the IrDA ports of both devices. (When sending data from one Dolphin terminal to another, posi-
tion both terminals so that the IrDA ports are facing each other directly.)
2. Open the program where you created the item you want to send and locate the item in the list.
You can beam files, but not folders, from File Explorer.
