Infrared connection
Your phone is designed to receive and
exchange information and les with other
mobile devices via infrared wireless
communication. If you want to use an IR
connection, make sure your PC is IrDA
compliant; that is, your PC must have an
IR port. The types of data you can send or
receive include graphics, images, sound
clips, videos, calendar and notes.
To turn on the infrared connection:
Tap Start > Settings > the Connections
tab > Beam and conrm to receive all
incoming beams. To prevent interference
please make sure there is no obstacle
between the devices.
Once you activate the feature to receive
all incoming beams, your phone detects all
incoming infrared (IR) beams and prompts
your phone to accept them. If you do not
wish your phone to detect or receive beams,
uncheck the Receive all incoming beams.
Warning
Do not expose your eyes directly to the
IR infrared beam or allow it to interfere
with other IR devices.
To synchronize via IR connection:
1. To receive infrared beams, follow the
instructions in ActiveSync Help on the PC
to set up your PC.
2. Line up the infrared (IR) ports of your
Apollo and your PC, at close range,
without obstructions.
3. On the device, tap Start > Programs >
ActiveSync.
4. Tap the Menu tab > Connect via IR.
5. Tap Sync.
