Beaming data
27
You can beam the following information between devices with an IR port:
■ The record currently displayed in Date Book, Address Book, To Do List, or
Memo Pad
■ All records of the category currently displayed in Address Book, To Do List, or
Memo Pad
■ A special Address Book record that you designate as your business card,
containing information you want to exchange with business contacts
■ An application installed in RAM memory
■ An application installed on an expansion card that is seated in the card slot
TIP
You can also perform HotSync
®
operations using the IR port.
See “Conducting IR HotSync operations” in Chapter 20 for details.
To select a business card:
1. Create an Address Book record that contains the information you want on your
business card.
2. Press Function + Menu .
3. Select “Select Business Card” on the Record menu.
4. Tap Yes.
To beam a record, business card, or category of records:
1. Locate the record, business card, or category you want to beam.
2. Press Function + Menu .
3. Select one of the following from the Record menu:
– The Beam command for an individual record
– In Address Book only: Beam Business Card
– Beam Category
4. When the Beam Status dialog box appears, point the IR port directly at the IR
port of the receiving handheld.
For best results, handhelds should be between 10 centimeters (approximately
4 inches) and 1 meter (approximately 39 inches) apart, and the path between the
two handhelds must be clear of obstacles. The beaming distance to other Palm
OS handhelds may be different.
