Beam Information
You can beam the following information between Janam connected organizers:
• The record currently displayed in date book, address book, to do list or memo pad.
• All records of the category currently displayed in the address book, to do list or memo pad
applications.
• A special address book record that you designate as your business card that contains information you
want to exchange with business contacts.
• An application installed in RAM memory.
NOTE: HotSync operations can also be done using the IR port.
For best results, Janam XP20 handheld computers should be between 10 centimeters (approximately 4
inches) and 1 meter (approximately 39 inches) apart, and the path between the two devices must be clear
of obstacles. Beaming distance to other connected devices may be different.
