Transmitting data via IR
You can send or receive data such as business cards (names and
numbers stored in the phone book), calendar notes and graphical
icons (group graphics for caller groups) to or from a compatible
phone or data device (for example, a computer) via the IR port of
your phone.
You can also print business cards and calendar notes. See “Copying
and printing via IR” on page 45.
To send or receive data via IR:
1 Ensure that the IR ports of the sending and receiving device are
pointing at each other and that there are no obstructions
between the devices. The preferable distance between the
devices is one meter at the most.
2 When receiving data via IR, activate the IR port of your phone by
entering the Infrared menu (Menu 9).
3 The user of the sending device then selects the desired IR
function to start data transfer.
If data transfer is not started within one minute after the
activation of the IR port, the IR connection is cancelled and has
to be started again.
Note: Your phone is a Class 1 Laser Product.
