1. On the MX5X, select | Settings | Control Panel | Network and Dialup Connections. A
window is displayed showing the existing connections.
2. Assuming the one you want does not exist, tap Connection. Then tap New…
3. Give the new connection an appropriate name (IR @ 9600, etc.). Tap the Direct Connection
control. Tap the Next button.
4. From the popup menu, choose the port you want to connect to. Only the available ports are
shown.
5. Tap the Configure... button.
6. Under the Port Settings tab, choose the appropriate baud rate. Data bits, parity, and stop bits
remain at 8, none, and 1, respectively.
7. Under the Call Options tab, be sure to disable Wait for dial tone, since a direct connection will
not have a dial tone. Set the Cancel parameter (default is 2 seconds). Tap OK.
8. TCP/IP Settings should not need to change from defaults. Tap the Finish button to create the
new connection.
9. Close the Remote Networking window.
10. To activate the new connection select
| Settings | Control Panel | PC Connection and tap
the Change button.
11. Select the new connection. Tap OK twice.
12. Close the Control Panel window.
13. Connect the desktop PC to the MX5X with the appropriate cable.
14. Tap the desktop Connect icon to test the new connection.
You can activate the connection by double-tapping on the specific connection icon in the Remote
Networking window, but this will only start an RAS (Remote Access Services) session, and does
not start ActiveSync properly.
