Remote instrument access
ActiveSync connection functions
Use Virtual CE to remotely control the instrument over a USB cable from a PC. (See page 91, Remote control using Virtual CE.)
Use the ActiveSync Explorer button to open a Windows Explorer window. You can then use standard Windows operations
to copy or move files between the instrument and the PC. Copying files between the instrument and a PC is significantly
easier using ActiveSync than using a network connection.
Configure ActiveSync on the PC
Register the instrument USB port
The PC must register the H500 USB port as a valid slave port before you can establish an ActiveSync connection from the
instrument to the PC. You only need to register the instrument USB slave port once on each PC to use the USB port for ActiveSync
connections.
