Host Communication

The cradle can be used to communicate with a host, printer or modem. The data is
transferred via the IrDA port on the terminal to the IrDA port on the cradle, then transferred
serially from the cradle to the host.
Sending Data
1. Make sure the cradle is receiving power.
2. Make sure the cradle is connected to the host, printer or modem.
3. Insert the terminal in the cradle.
4. Press the appropriate key on the terminal as required by your application program.
