Performing a HotSync operation via a network

265

To perform a HotSync operation via a network, you must meet the following
requirements:

• Your computer has TCP/IP support installed.

• Both your company’s network system and its remote access server support

TCP/IP. (Your system administrator has this information.)

• You have a remote access account. (If you don’t have an account, consult your

system administrator.)

Everything you need to connect to your company’s dial-in server (network modem) is
included in the Palm Desktop software and in your Acer s10. You need to activate the
feature, however, on both Palm Desktop software and on your Acer s10.

To prepare your computer for a network HotSync operation:

1

Click the HotSync Manager icon in the Windows system tray.

2

From the HotSync Manager menu, choose Network.

3

From the HotSync Manager menu, choose Setup.

4

Click the Network tab and make sure that a check mark appears next to your user
name. If no check mark appears, select the check box next to your user name.

5

Click OK.

6

Place your Acer s10 in the cradle, and perform a HotSync operation.

The HotSync operation records network information about your computer on your
Acer s10. With this information, your Acer s10 can locate your computer when you
perform a HotSync operation over the network.
