CHAPTER 3 SYNCHRONIZATION
Introduction
Synchronization lets the user manage information between an MC21XX and a host computer so that changes
made either on the MC21XX or on the host computer appear in both places. Download and install
synchronization software to the host computer (either Microsoft ActiveSync for Windows XP or Windows
Mobile Device Center (WMDC) for Windows Vista and Windows 7) in order to use the sync feature. Visit
www.microsoft.com on the host computer for details.
The synchronization software:
•
Allows working with MC21XX-compatible applications on the host computer. The sync software
replicates data from the MC21XX to view, enter, and modify data on the host computer.
•
Synchronizes files between the MC21XX and the host computer, converting the files to the correct
format.
•
Backs up the data stored on the MC21XX. Synchronization is a one-step procedure that ensures the
data is always safe and up-to-date.
•
Copies (rather than synchronizes) files between the MC21XX and the host computer.
•
Controls when synchronization occurs by selecting a synchronization mode. For example, synchronize
continuously while the MC21XX is connected to the host computer, or synchronize only on command.
•
Selects the types of information to synchronize and control how much data is synchronized.
Installing the Sync Software
To download and install either Microsoft ActiveSync (for Windows XP) or WMDC (for Windows Vista and
Windows 7), visit www.microsoft.com and follow the instructions provided.
MC21XX Setup
NOTE Microsoft recommends installing the synchronization software on the host computer before connecting
the MC21XX.
