Even schoolchildren have learned that a pocket computer can be connected to an ordinary PC via a USB interface. But the set of PDA interfaces allows you to use the peripherals for various purposes. Each of the interfaces has its own characteristics, some, however, are not used as often as USB or BlueTooth.
Necessary
- - PDA;
- - camera;
- - expansion slot;
- - USB cable;
- - infrared port.
Instructions
Step 1
Please note that drivers are responsible for the operation of any equipment, which correspond to the system installed on the PDA. Information output to the PDA screen is carried out by programs responsible for certain functions. Any external equipment is connected using the same principle. However, some types of equipment that can be easily connected to a large PC may not be supported by the Pocket PC.
Step 2
Adjust the performance of certain functions of the PDA yourself. Meet your needs with expansion slots. These are devices that are installed on the PDA case, various modules are already plugged into them. Most Pocket PCs use Compact Flash or Multimedia Card expansion slots. Some PDA models can use Smart Media or Memory Stik by SONY. Check the user manual for the possibility of using one or another expansion slot.
Step 3
Connect a digital camera to the PDA via a USB cable. Observe the condition that the drivers of both devices match. Sometimes drivers for various types of devices are supplied by the PDA manufacturers themselves. A digital camera is not a common type of device that users try to connect to a PDA.
Step 4
Send pictures to your PDA via Ir if you have a digital camera that supports infrared. The only drawback will be the low data transfer rate.
Step 5
Use CF cameras to connect to a PDA. Transfer the captured footage via your PDA. View photos on your PDA from a connected digital camera. When choosing devices, pay attention to the compatibility of expansion slots for both devices.
Step 6
Often, users try to connect not a digital camera, but a web camera to a PDA. Pay attention to the Webcamera Plus application and transform your PDA. This will be possible if your Pocket PC has Windows Mobile installed.
