Serial Port Communications: troubleshooting

HotSync Manager: allows the system to synchronize with PDA devices. Users are

able to turn off the HotSync Manager, which generally runs in the background. For

additional information please see: Disabling the HotSync Manager on a PC.

Writing / Graphics Tablets: older tablets use serial ports in order to communicate.

They can occasionally interfere with the communication of other serial devices (such

as digital cameras or printers) because they “poll” the computer’s serial ports.

Disabling such devices is not always as simple as detaching the hardware (tablet.) In

cases, for example, the device’s driver must be uninstalled, as well. Please contact

the vendor for additional information on uninstalling or disabling Serial Port Graphics

Tablets.

UPS Devices: uninterruptible power supplies are generally connected to the Serial

Port of a PC in order to allow the computer to properly shut down in the event of a

power outage. Removing the UPS may not be a good solution, as related software

drivers and utilities would continue to interfere with the operation of digital cameras

and printers, even after the UPS hardware has been removed. Please contact the

vendor for additional information.

Serial Mouse: computers with a single Serial Port don’t allow multiple Serial devices

to be attached. A serial mouse, for example, would prevent the user from connecting

other Serial devices. Generally, users should consider switching to a

PS2 or USB mouse in resolving the matter. Please contact the vendor for additional

information.

External Modem: modems that use external Serial ports prevent other Serial

devices from being attached (if the computer has only one Serial Port.) Users should

generally consider using a USB or an Internal modem in resolving the matter. Please

contact the vendor of the computer for additional connectivity information or options.

Disabling HotSync Manager for PC: Palm or Handspring Visor PDA devices use the

Palm Desktop and HotSync Manager software in synchronizing data between the PDA

and the computer. When the HotSync Manager software is running, it will prevent

other software from accessing or utilizing the Serial Port. When the Pocket Printer A6

attempts to print, the HotSync Manager software will effectively block any

communication.

In order to resolve this, you should temporarily close the HotSync Manager software.

When you would like to sync the PDA, you can easily restart the HotSync Manager

software. To close the HotSync Manager, please RIGHT CLICK the HotSync Manager

ICON—it’s a red and blue circle—in your System Tray, located next to the Clock.

Select EXIT.

Pocket Printer A6 User’s Guide

SiPix Technical Support http://www.sipixdigital.com/support/

Further, you can prevent the HotSync Manager software from automatically starting

when you boot your computer. Typically, you would simply start the software when it

was needed. Please contact the vendor of the PDA for additional information on this

matter.

Infrared Port Communications: troubleshooting

Please note: There are a number of factors that affect IR communication; we've

listed them below. But it's important to remember that not all computers are

identical when it comes to the configuration and setup, especially where the BIOS

is concerned. For that reason, we encourage you to contact the manufacturer with

questions specific to the system you are using. Bottom line: make sure that you

are using updated, accurate information relative to your hardware /software

configuration.

System BIOS/IR Port is not enabled: Refer to the documentation that was

provided with your system to access the system BIOS. Find the Infrared Data Port,

and ensure that this port is not disabled. If you are given a choice for the COM

port, you should select COM 4; if you are given a choice for Infrared Mode, you

should select FAST IR. Save any changes that you have made, and restart your

system.

Infrared communication function is not enabled: Your computer's IR port may

not be enabled. Ensure that the Infrared communication function is enabled. The

Control Panel should have an Icon for Infrared; double click the Icon. Looking

under the OPTIONS tab, ensure that the Enable Infrared Communications option is

checked. Select the APPLY button, if you've made any changes.

Infrared Port is not visible in the Device Manager: Check to ensure that the

Infrared Port is visible in the Device Manager, and that there are no exclamation

points (!) or Xs (x) next to the name. To access the Device Manager, right-click on

MY COMPUTER, select PROPERTIES, and select the Device Manager Tab.
