4.1 Introduction
The netpad has Infrared built in, allowing you to transfer selected information to
another netpad or other Psion Teklogix device without the use of a cable.
You can also use Infrared to print directly to printers that support Infrared - see
"Printing Using Infrared" on page 146 for more details.
4.2 Selecting Data To Transfer
On the machine from which information is to be transferred (the 'sending
machine'), select the information you want to transfer:
•
If the information is a file, ensure that the file is closed and highlight the file
name on the System screen. Drag the pen if you want to transfer more than
one file.
•
If the information is an object already inserted from another program, e.g. a
graph displayed in Word, just select the object. If the inserted object is dis-
played as an icon, you can just select the icon.
•
If the information is an Agenda or Data entry, open the appropriate file and
move the cursor to the required entry.
•
If you wish to transfer a graph, highlight the cell contents in Sheet view.
Graphs cannot be transferred direct from one Sheet file to another, only the
cell contents. Relative and absolute cell references are preserved.
•
In all other cases, open the file from which the selected information is to be
transferred, and select the required information (e.g. the piece of text, range
of spreadsheet cells, sketch area).
Note: Objects can be transferred like other information. They appear as objects
on the receiving machine.
