Backup VX6 Files using ActiveSync 
Using Microsoft ActiveSync version 3.7 or higher, you can synchronize information on your 
desktop computer with the VX6 and vice versa. Synchronization compares the data on your VX6 
with your desktop computer and updates both with the most recent data. 
For example, you can: 
•  Back up and restore your device data. 
•  Copy (rather than synchronize) files between your device and desktop computer. 
•  Control when synchronization occurs by selecting a synchronization mode. For 
example, you can synchronize continually while connected to your desktop 
computer or only when you choose the synchronize command. 
If the VX6 is connected to a PC by a RS-232 or USB cable, disconnect the cable from the VX6 
and reconnect. 
Check that the correct connection is selected (Serial or USB “Client”). 
Note:   By default, ActiveSync does not automatically synchronize all types of information. Use 
ActiveSync Options to specify the types of information you want to synchronize. The 
synchronization process makes the data (in the information types you select) identical on 
both your desktop computer and your device. 
When installation of ActiveSync is complete on your desktop computer, the ActiveSync Setup 
Wizard begins and starts the following processes: 
•  connect your device to your desktop computer, 
•  set up a partnership so you can synchronize information between your device and 
your desktop computer, and 
•  customize your synchronization settings. 
Because ActiveSync is already installed on your device, your first synchronization process begins 
automatically when you finish setting up your desktop computer in the ActiveSync wizard. 
Prerequisites 
VX6 and ActiveSync Partnership 
A partnership between the VX6 and ActiveSync has been established. See section “ActiveSync – 
Initial Setup” in Chapter 1 “Introduction”, “Getting Started”. 
Serial Port Transfer 
•  A desktop or laptop PC with an available serial port and a VX6 with a serial port. 
The desktop or laptop PC must be running Windows 95, 98, NT, 2000 or XP. 
•  Null modem cable with all control lines connected. LXE recommends using the null 
modem cable part number listed in Chapter 1 “Introduction”, subsection 
“Accessories”.
