4. USB DRIVER SOFTWARE
=====================================================================
The CD contains driver software for DCU-11 and USB cable (for Z1010 only).
When the cable is connected to the computer the Hardware
Wizard will start. Follow the wizard and give the path to the drivers.
=====================================================================
4.1 DCU-11
=====================================================================
The software for DCU-11 is located in:
<CD/DVD UNIT>\Drivers\DCU-11
To be able to get a connection between the Phone and the PC with the
DCU-11 cable, you must configure the Mobile Phone Monitor to listen
to the DCU-11 COM Port.
1. Go to the Control Panel -> System -> Hardware -> Device Manager
2. Open up the node Ports (COM & LPT), look which COM port the DCU-11
is connected to. Remember that COM port number.
3. In the Control Panel start the Phone Monitor Option. Select the COM
Ports tab.
4. In the COM Ports list, make sure that the DCU-11 COM port is enabled.

<CD/DVD UNIT>\Drivers\USB Cable\
The PC Software has a default configuration to use this USB cable.
=====================================================================
5. CONFIGURATION
=====================================================================
=====================================================================
5.1 SYNC SETTINGS
=====================================================================
Before the first synchronisation, you have to configure the sync
settings. You can choose which data types to sync: Contacts,
Calendar, Tasks and Notes. You also have the
opportunity to set up rules for how the sync should handle
conflicts and force a full sync instead of only synchronising
updated posts.
It is only possible to change "Sync Station Settings" while the phone
is connected. If you try to change settings, by right clicking on
the "Launcher" in the taskbar notification area, without the phone
connected "Sync station Settings" will be greyed out.
Behaviour for "Select last changed item" differs between data types.
Synchronisation behaviour can be modified by selecting the "Standard synchronisation"
tab in Sync Station Settings.
Under "Conflict resolution" there is an option for "Select last
changed item". This option is only applicable to data types Calendar
and Tasks, for data types Contacts and Notes this option will
actually result in "Automatically resolve conflicts - keep items in
computer, override items in phone" since these data types does not
support a last change date.
Field matching between PIM and phone
Several Personal Information Managers (PIM) are supported on the
computer. We will use Microsoft Outlook 2003 as an example when
describing field matching between PIM and phone. The phone can only
support a limited amount of information, and in the list below we show
which fields that are supported. There is also a limitation on field
lengths in the phone, therefore long field names will be truncated when displayed
in phone.
PIM (Outlook 2003) Phone

First name: Name: (All characters up to
Last name: first space is taken
as first name in phone)

Full Synchronisation
In Sync station Settings under tab "Full synchronisation" there is
an option for "Merge items in computer and phone". Merge in this
case means to add all items that don't match when comparing item
by item between PIM and phone. It does not combine two similar
items into one item.

=====================================================================
8.3 WINDOWS XP OVER IRDA
=====================================================================
The automatic installation of the infrared (IR) modem starts when you
place your Z1010 or K700 series, with the infrared port enabled, in front of your
PC's infrared eye. A known issue on WinXP is that a "Standard modem over IR" is
installed instead of of the correct ir modem. To replace the "Standard modem over IR"
with the Sony Ericsson Z1010 or K700 series modem, follow the steps described below
1. Go to "Control Panel -> System -> Hardware -> Device Manager ->

9. LIMITATIONS
=====================================================================
--Synch
The total number of items supported in Z1010 and K700 series are:
510 phone numbers (Each Contact can have up to 5 phone numbers, 510
is the total phone numbers)
300 Calendar items
80 Task
10 Notes
If there are more data in the PIM than allowed in the phone,
the synchronisation will complete successfully, but some items are not
synchronised to the phone. It is a good rule to check for the
number of items in the phone from time to time to make sure that
there is enough space for new items to be synchronised.
Under "Conflict resolution" there is an option for "Select last
changed item". This option is only applicable to data types Calendar
and Tasks, for data types Contacts and Notes this option will
actually result in "Automatically resolve conflicts - keep items in
computer, override items in phone" since these data types does not
support a last change date.
--Sound Editor
To be able to record from Audio Player in Sound Editor, the user needs to
select one Source. Select Source from Audio Recorder, Recording Control
is shown. In Recording Control, select Options -> Properties.
Activate all option for the volume controls. Choose a Source to record
from in Recording Control. The source to choose from depends on the
Sound Card and the Operative System on your PC.
--File Manager
The files copied to the phone are placed into different folders based
on the file extension. Therefore it is not allowed to copy certain
files into a non corresponding folder. I.e. a mp3 file can not be
stored in the images folder.
It is not possible to edit a file stored on the phone. You must first
move it to the computer before it can be opened.
