Uploading Data In A Docking Station
• A ‘never used’ Li-Ion battery that has been stored for 3 years may have
limited or no useful life remaining once put into service. Think of batteries
as perishable goods.
3.8 Uploading Data In A Docking Station
Important: Review the documentation provided with the user application installed
in your WORKABOUT PRO before performing data uploads.
The desktop docking station and quad docking station allow the WORKABOUT
PRO G2 to link to an Ethernet network. They are typically used to upload
transaction data to a server computer when a radio link is not available.
Note: Refer to “Desktop Docking Station” on page 223 for more details.
The desktop docking station can complete batch uploads to a Client USB connected
PC or server. An optional 10/100baseT Ethernet module is also available.
Unlike the desktop docking station, the quad docking station supports only TCP/IP
connections to a PC or server through a 10/100baseT Ethernet connection.
When a WORKABOUT PRO is properly inserted in a docking station, a dock icon
is displayed in the navigation bar at the top of the screen. The unit also detects the
presence of the Ethernet network.
3.9 Bluetooth Radio
Note: Integrated Bluetooth class II radios are standard on WORKABOUT
PRO C and S G2 units. Keep in mind also that Bluetooth is available
simultaneously with WAN and 802.11g on a single unit.
The WORKABOUT PRO is equipped with an on-board Bluetooth radio. This type of
radio enables short range data communication between devices. The Bluetooth also
provides the capability to use a Bluetooth-enabled cellular phone as a data modem,
exchanging information with other Bluetooth devices and providing network access.
Refer to “Bluetooth Setup” on page 111for setup details.
3.10 The SD/MMC Card—Adding Memory
To add additional non-volatile memory to your hand-held, you can insert a Secure
Digital/Multi-Media Card (SD/MMC) through the battery compartment.
