9.1 General Information on Exchanging Data with your Desktop PC
You can connect your skeye.pad POS through a desktop cradle via USB cable to
your desktop PC.
Before you establish the connection, you must install ActiveSync on your desktop

different desktop PCs. To do this, you need an additional desktop cradle (e.g.
office/home).
