Explore

• From the ActiveSync Dialog on the Desktop PC, tap the Explore button.

This function allows you to explore the Thor VM2 from the PC side, with some limitations. You can copy files to or from the
mobile device by drag-and-drop. You will not be allowed to delete files or copy files out of the \Windows folder on the mobile
device. (Technically, the only files you cannot delete or copy are ones marked as system files in the original build of the Windows
image. This, however, includes most of the files in the \Windows folder).

Backup Data Files using ActiveSync

Use the following information to backup data files from the Thor VM2 to a desktop or laptop PC using the appropriate cable and
Microsoft's ActiveSync.

Prerequisites

Note: USB synchronization will start automatically when the cable is connected.

Disconnect

• Open the status bar icon in the lower right hand corner of the status bar. Then tap the Disconnect button.
When the Thor VM2 loses connection, e.g.: enters Suspend Mode, etc., the connection to ActiveSync will be lost. When the
