ActiveSync Communication

Page 36 highlights

ActiveSync Communication To synchronize, ActiveSync 4.5 or higher must be installed and configured for the appropriate communication type on the host workstation and the Dolphin terminal. Dolphin terminals ship with ActiveSync already installed. Therefore, if ActiveSync is already installed on the host workstation, you just need to connect the Dolphin terminal to the host workstation (via Dolphin peripheral) to initiate communication. If ActiveSync 4.5 or higher is not installed on the host workstation, install it from the Getting Started CD that came with the Dolphin terminal. Insert the CD into the CD-ROM drive of the host workstation and follow the directions on your screen. You can also download the most current version of ActiveSync from www.microsoft.com and install. ! When communicating via ActiveSync, your terminal is designed to be connected to the host workstation with a communication peripheral sold/manufactured by Honeywell, such as the charge/communication cable. Use of any peripheral not sold/manufactured by Honeywell may cause damage not covered by the warranty. Communication Types The terminal supports the following types of communication via ActiveSync through its I/O Connector (see page 3-15) on the bottom panel: USB The USB cable and hardware peripherals allow the terminal to communicate with a workstation or to networked through a USB hub. The terminal supports full-speed USB communication (USB 1.1); maximum data transfer rate is 12 Mbps. The terminal defaults to USB communication out of the box. RS-232 The RS-232 cable allows the terminal to communicate with a workstation, modem, or any RS-232 device. Maximum data transfer rate is 115 Kbps. Hardware Requirements for Setup • Dolphin HomeBase device • Communication cable from Honeywell • Power cable from Honeywell; see Connecting the Power Cable on page 3-17. • USB cable (for USB communication) from Honeywell • Serial cable (for RS-232 communication) from Honeywell Software Requirements for Communication On the workstation: • Windows 98 Second Edition, Windows Me, Windows 2000, Windows NT (4.0, SP6 or higher), Windows XP, or Windows Vista operating systems. • ActiveSync must be setup on the workstation before you initiate synchronization from the terminal for the first time. On the terminal and the workstation: • ActiveSync 4.5 or higher. ActiveSync must be configured for same communication type (USB or RS232) on both the host workstation and the Dolphin terminal. Note: ActiveSync software is available on the Getting Started CD that comes in the box with the Dolphin terminal. 3 - 18 Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Rev A 5/23/2008 Dolphin® 7600 Mobile Computer User's Guide

ActiveSync Communication
To synchronize, ActiveSync 4.5 or higher must be installed and configured for the appropriate
communication type on the host workstation and the Dolphin terminal. Dolphin terminals ship with
ActiveSync already installed. Therefore, if ActiveSync is already installed on the host workstation, you just
need to connect the Dolphin terminal to the host workstation (via Dolphin peripheral) to initiate
communication.
If ActiveSync 4.5 or higher is not installed on the host workstation, install it from the Getting Started CD
that came with the Dolphin terminal. Insert the CD into the CD-ROM drive of the host workstation and
follow the directions on your screen. You can also download the most current version of ActiveSync from
www.microsoft.com and install.
When communicating via ActiveSync, your terminal is designed to be connected to the host workstation with
a communication peripheral sold/manufactured by Honeywell, such as the charge/communication cable. Use
of any peripheral not sold/manufactured by Honeywell may cause damage not covered by the warranty.
Communication Types
The terminal supports the following types of communication via ActiveSync through its
I/O Connector
(see
page 3-15) on the bottom panel:
USB
The USB cable and hardware peripherals allow the terminal to communicate with a
workstation or to networked through a USB hub. The terminal supports full-speed USB
communication (USB 1.1); maximum data transfer rate is 12 Mbps. The terminal defaults
to USB communication out of the box.
RS-232
The RS-232 cable allows the terminal to communicate with a workstation, modem, or any
RS-232 device. Maximum data transfer rate is 115 Kbps.
Hardware Requirements for Setup
Dolphin HomeBase device
Communication cable from Honeywell
Power cable from Honeywell; see
Connecting the Power Cable

Software Requirements for Communication
On the workstation:
Windows 98 Second Edition, Windows Me, Windows 2000, Windows NT (4.0, SP6 or higher), Windows
XP, or Windows Vista operating systems.
ActiveSync must be setup on the workstation
before
you initiate synchronization from the terminal for
the first time.
On the terminal and the workstation:
ActiveSync 4.5 or higher. ActiveSync must be configured for same communication type (USB or RS-
232) on both the host workstation and the Dolphin terminal.
