If this happens, make more space available in the secondary storage location, then install the software again. If the problem persists, perform a full hard reset of the CE device, then reinstall the TerraSync software. For information on performing a full hard reset, visit the Trimble website at www. trimble. com/support. html and click TerraSync. NOTE Trimble recommends that you uninstall any previously installed versions of the TerraSync software and transfer any TerraSync data files to your office computer before installing the latest version. You can use any of the following methods: · · serial cable infrared · · cradle modem · · USB network card For information on connecting your CE device to another computer, refer to the documentation for your CE device. If an ActiveSync partnership for these two computers exists, ActiveSync starts and the office computer connects to the CE device automatically. More. . . TerraSync Release Notes Installation on a CE Device 28 NOTE ActiveSync cannot connect to a CE device that is communicating with a GPS receiver on the same port. If you are upgrading or reinstalling the TerraSync software, make sure you disconnect from GPS and exit the software. If there is no partnership, or the computers do not connect, you may need to reinstall ActiveSync on your office computer. When the two computers are connected, the Microsoft ActiveSync window appears and displays the message Connected: More. . . TerraSync Release Notes Installation on a CE Device 29 TIP If ActiveSync is installed, but the two computers do not connect, check that the CE device is set up to establish a PC connection. For information on how to do this, refer to the documentation for your CE device. You should also ensure that the CE device is configured to connect at the maximum baud rate available. TIP 3.

[. . . ] If you are unsure whether a powered connection will cause damage, refer to the user manual for your field computer or consult the manufacturer before using P/N 30236. TIP The GPS Pathfinder Pocket receiver does not output power and can be safely connected directly to your field computer. A field computer uses more power when a GPS receiver is connected to its CompactFlash serial port. This type of connection will discharge the field computer's battery more quickly. NOTE If you have a Compaq iPAQ, and you are using a CompactFlash serial adapter to provide a serial connection to the GPS receiver, configure the receiver to connect to the serial port COM4.
