Mobile Link
Mobile Link is software that helps your SPT 173x terminal communicate with Web-based
information on a network when you synchronize. You rarely need to use Mobile Link
directly. It is installed as part of AvantGo, and is configured at that time. The only time you
may need to use Mobile Link is to set up the connection to a proxy server or to perform
some server configuration maintenance.
Typically, you synchronize the contents of your SPT 173x terminal with similar contents on
your desktop computer. For example, the SPT 173x has a calendar application that you
synchronize with a calendar application on your desktop to make sure they both have the
same contents. To do this, you connect the SPT 173x terminal to your desktop computer,
and HotSync operation transfers data between the two.
Mobile Link provides a common way for such remote servers to communicate with your
desktop computer and SPT 173x terminal. Once it is installed, your terminal can
synchronize with any server that understands the Mobile Link protocol. To sync through
your desktop computer, all you have to do is perform the HotSync operation as you
normally would. Mobile Link takes care of accessing the remote server and passing data
back and forth between the server and the SPT 173x.
