Appendix G ActiveSync

Overview

To communicate with host computer devices install Microsoft ActiveSync on the host computer. Use ActiveSync to
manually update data on the CA50 client and synchronize information on the client with information on the host
computer. Changes made on the client or host computer appear in both places after synchronization.
ActiveSync software:
Allows working with client-compatible host applications on the host computer. ActiveSync replicates data
from the client so the host application can view, enter and modify data on the client.
Synchronizes files between the client and host computer, converting the files to the correct format.
Uploads and downloads data to the client from the host computer. Synchronization is a one-step procedure
that ensures the data is always safe and up-to-date.
Copies (rather than synchronizes) files between the client and host computer.
Controls when synchronization occurs by selecting a synchronization mode, e.g., set to synchronize
continually while the client is connected to the host computer, or set to only synchronize on command.
Selects the types of information to synchronize and control how much data is synchronized.
NOTE The CA50 cannot be charged over an ActiveSync connection.
NOTE The CA50 supports a USB client connection only.
