Connecting by sync cable The HP Jornada uses a serial connection to communicate with a desktop PC. The serial connection is established with the sync cable (included with the HP Jornada) and a 9-pin serial communications port on your desktop PC. The HP Jornada 420 connects to the sync cable via the cradle. If you do not have a 9-pin serial port on your desktop PC, or if the port is in use by another device, such as a printer or modem, you may need to obtain an adapter from your computer manufacturer.
