are using a Nokia 6100 series phone for infrared transmission and running Nokia Data Suite under Windows 95 , and
you install MS IrDA 2.0, then you will have to disable the infrared communication in the Infrared Monitor every time you
wish to use the Nokia Data Suite. NOTE! This also applies if you are using: 1. Nokia Data Suite simultaneously with any
version of I e Nokia PC Suite or any other application that requires the MS IrDA 2.0 update, or 2. a Nokia 6100 series
phone for infrared transmission.

directly connect to the port use the port where application support is provided (COM4 in figure1). You
see also this information in Options tab of MS IrDA application.
