Changing the transfer speed
Neo can send text faster than some older computers can accept it. If
you notice missing characters or jumbled text, then you need to slow
down the transfer speed. Even on newer, faster computers, some
applications are slow to accept text and you must slow down your
Neo to transfer text into these applications. You can change the
transfer speed for both USB cable and IR transfers.
To change the transfer speed for a USB cable connection:
1. Make sure your Neo is not attached to your computer. (You can
change the transfer speed only when the Neo is not attached.)
2. Press
the following options:
Very Slow (1). This is the slowest speed setting and is
•
compatible with all machines and applications. It is
recommended especially when you use graphics intensive
applications.
Slow (2). This setting is compatible with all machines and
•
most applications.
Fast (3). This the default speed and usually works well with
•
most Macintoshes and PCs.
Fastest (4). This setting provides the quickest transfers.
•
However, some word processing applications may experience
a loss of data when files are transferred using this mode, so
you might want to experiment to see which speed works best
for you.
