Before you make a digital data call
Before initiating the data call from your PalmOS device, make sure you enable infrared communications on your phone, then align
the infrared ports of the two devices. If you are using the DLR-3P for the connection, make sure the cable is connected properly to
both the phone and your computer’s COM port.
