Backing up data

Your Field PC is designed to protect your data. However, it

is still a good idea to back up your data regularly by saving

information to a desktop computer or to a Compact Flash

Backing up to a desktop computer. To copy fi les from your
Field PC to a desktop computer, follow these steps:

1. If you have Windows

Note: If you have Microsoft

®

Windows Vista™, we

recommend installing Windows Mobile Device Center™ on
your desktop computer
from the Microsoft
website or by selecting
Start > Programs >

Microsoft Update on
your desktop computer.
You can then sync
your Field PC with your
desktop computer. For
more instructions about
