service you want to use.

Click the Bluetooth Connection Manager link in the BCC.

2.

The Connection Manager wizard appears.

3.

Use the scroll bars to find a device or service type to search for, and then
click on that device or service to begin the connection process.

Making an ActiveSync Connection

ActiveSync is a desktop utility program (available as a free download from
Microsoft

®

) that allows you to synchronize certain types of information between a

PC and a Windows CE device. You can also use ActiveSync to transfer files and
install programs on the device.

When connecting the device to the PC via ActiveSync, you can create a
temporary Guest partnership to copy files and install programs, or you can opt to
create a partnership and subsequently have the PC automatically recognize the
device and synchronize information.
