Configuring the VX6 with LXEConnect

LXEConnect allows a user to view the VX6 screen remotely from a PC using an ActiveSync connection:
Requirement : ActiveSync (version 4.5 or higher for Windows XP desktop/laptop computers) must be resident on the host
(desktop/laptop) computer. Windows Mobile Device Center is required for a Windows Vista/Windows 7 desktop/laptop
computer. ActiveSync and Windows Mobile Device Center for the PC are available from the Microsoft website. Follow their
instructions to locate, download and install ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Center on your desktop computer.
Note: For readability in this section, ActiveSync will be used in instructions and explanations. If you have a Windows Vista
or Windows 7 operating system on your desktop/laptop, replace ActiveSync with Windows Mobile Device Center.
ActiveSync is already installed on the VX6. The VX6 is preconfigured to establish a USB ActiveSync connection to a PC when
the proper cable is attached to the VX6 and the PC.
If the VX6 uses a serial port for ActiveSync, it will be necessary to configure the VX6 to use the serial port. Complete details on
the proper cables and port configuration are included in
