ActiveSync software:

•

Allows the user to work with mobile computer-compatible host applications on the host 
computer. ActiveSync replicates data from the mobile computer so data can be viewed, 
entered and modified on the mobile computer with the host application.

•

Synchronize files between the mobile computer and host computer. The files are 
automatically converted to the correct format.

•

Back up the data stored on the mobile computer. Synchronization is a one-step procedure 
that ensures the data is always safe and up-to-date.

•

Copy (rather than synchronize) files between the mobile computer and host computer.

•

Control when synchronization occurs by selecting a synchronization mode, e.g., set to 
synchronize continually while the mobile computer is connected to the host computer, or set 
to only synchronize on command.

•

Select the types of information to synchronize and control how much data is synchronized.

To install ActiveSync on the host computer:

1.

Download the latest version of the software from http://www.microsoft.com. Refer to the 
installation and RAS instructions included with the ActiveSync software.

2.

Set up a partnership via the ActiveSync connection using a serial connection to the host 
computer.

After ActiveSync installation is complete, the ActiveSync Setup Wizard helps the user to connect the 
mobile computer to the host computer, set up a partnership to synchronize information between the 
mobile computer and host computer and customize synchronization settings.

Before setting up a partnership between the mobile computer and host computer, refer to the 
communication setup sections in this chapter for detailed information about Serial, USB and Ethernet 
communication setups.
