Using ActiveSync to Connect to the Intermec Computer
You can use ActiveSync to establish a connection between your desktop PC 
and an Intermec computer running Windows CE for file viewing and 
synchronization, remote debugging, and other device management 
activities.
Installing ActiveSync
You can find instructions for using ActiveSync when you download the 
software. You can download ActiveSync from the Microsoft web site at:
To establish a partnership between an Intermec computer and a desktop 
PC, you must use a serial cable or a USB cable. If you have an Intermec 
mobile computer, you can also use a single dock. To order a cable or dock, 
contact your Intermec sales representative.
To install ActiveSync and establish a partnership with your Intermec 
computer, refer to the computer user’s manual and the Microsoft 
documentation.
