Connecting by infrared

You can use the infrared port on your HP Jornada to
connect to a desktop or notebook PC that is running
Windows 95 (or later). Once connected, you can transfer files
and synchronize Pocket Outlook data and e-mail messages
just as if you had connected using the sync cable.
Before you can connect by infrared, you must set up and
configure an infrared port on your desktop or notebook PC.
Many notebook PCs have a built-in infrared port; however,
you may need to install a third-party infrared transceiver on
your desktop PC. For more information about installing and
configuring that device for use with your desktop PC, refer to
the instructions that came with your infrared port .
The Desktop Software for Microsoft Windows CE compact disc
also includes infrared device drivers for Windows 95.
To configure Windows CE Services for infrared connection
1. Insert the Desktop Software for Microsoft
Windows CE compact disc into the CD-ROM
drive on your desktop PC, and then run Setup.exe.
2. Click Optional Components, and then select
the Windows 95 Communications Driver setup
program.
3. When the setup program prompts you to specify
a communications port, select a virtual port
(typically COM3).
