Exchanging Data with Mobile Devices
Your iQue M3 can connect to other handheld devices using Infrared (IR) technology. After you connect, you can “beam” your
contact files, appointments, notes, and many other types of files easily, without cords and cables. Beaming means sending data from
one device to another.
Beaming Data with IR
Using IR, you can send files from Calendar, Contacts, Tasks, File Explorer, Pocket Word, and Pocket Excel. From within any of
these applications, you can simply tap Tools and then Beam to beam a file to another device. You can also tap and hold on a file
name and select Beam from the drop-down menu. Make sure that the Infrared ports are lined up and that there are no objects
between them.
Infrared (IR) Window
Your iQue M3 automatically receives all incoming Infrared (IR) beams and asks you whether you wish to accept those beams, with
the exception of some older devices. To receive beams from older devices, such as a Pocket PC 2000 or H/PC device, you must tell
your iQue M3 to scan for incoming beams.
To change beam settings:
1. Tap , Settings, the Connections tab, and Beam.
2. Uncheck the Receive all incoming beams checkbox if you do not want to receive incoming beams.
To receive beams from older devices (Pocket PC 2000 or H/PC):
1. Tap , Settings, the Connections tab, and then Beam.
2. Tap the Receive an infrared beam link at the bottom of the page.
