Ethernet Connectivity with a Physical Handheld Without a network connection, a handheld is dead in the water. Handhelds provide various means of connected to your LAN. Connections can be achieved through bluetooth, wireless ethernet, physical ethernet docker and USB docker. This blog will discuss the steps required to set up a handheld with a physical docker. USB docker The USB docker provides a network connection the the handheld through a connected PC. We use USB docking stations primarily during development and when troubleshooting remotely. Please note, the procedure detailed below assumes that DHCP is supported on your local network. Required Software: – Microsoft Active Sync – IDockIT Required Hardware: – Handheld – PC with network connectivity – USB docker connected to PC Installation procedure – Install Active Sync onto local PC – Install IDockIT onto handheld and reboot it. –Launch IDockIT and under the “General” tab, select “Direct” as the USB cradle type. The device will use active sync to retrieve an IP from your network. For more details on active sync, please see Microsoft’s Active Sync Site. For more information on IDockIT, please see the IDockIt User Guide for more information on IDockIt. Ethernet Docker Please note, the procedure detailed below assumes that DHCP is supported on your local network. Required Software:
