Beaming information
Beaming information
Your Treo 700P smartphone is equipped with an IR (infrared) port so that
you can beam information to another Palm OS
®
device with an IR port.
The IR port is located on the top of your smartphone, between the
antenna and the Ringer switch, behind the small dark shield.
Beaming an entry
You can beam an individual entry or item such as a contact or a picture.
You can also beam all the entries in the selected category, such as all
the contacts in the Business or Family category.

Tip
For best results, the
path between the two
devices must be clear
of obstacles, and both
devices must be
stationary. If you have
difficulty beaming,
shorten the distance
and avoid bright
sunlight.
Tip
Beam your business
card in two key
presses: From the
Main View in the
Phone application,
open the menus, and
then press the “M”
key.
Did You Know?
If you beam a
bookmark or saved
page from the web
browser, it beams the
URL, not the contents
of that page.
1. Select the entry or category you want to beam. You cannot beam
an item that has a lock next to it.
2. Open the menus .
3. Select Record, and then select one of the following:
•
Beam: Sends an individual record.

4. When the Beam Status dialog box appears, point the IR port on
your Treo smartphone directly at the IR port of the receiving
device.
