Conducting a HotSync operation via modem

You can use a modem to synchronize your CLIÉ handheld when you are
away from your computer. A HotSync operation via modem allows you to
back up your CLIÉ data to your computer away from your computer.

Notes

• The first HotSync operation must be local, using the cradle. After that, you can

perform a modem HotSync operation.

• It may take many minutes to complete a HotSync operation via modem. To minimize

the time required to synchronize data with a modem, we suggest you define the files
and/or applications you synchronize during a modem HotSync operation in
advance. For details, see “To select the conduits for a modem HotSync operation” on
page 127.

Before you start performing a HotSync operation via modem

Check the following:

• A modem or terminal adapter is connected to your computer.

• The CLIÉ Modem PEGA-MD700 (not supplied) must be connected to your

CLIÉ handheld.

• The Palm Desktop for CLIÉ software must be properly configured for use

with the modem.
