In spite of very low data transmission speed in GSM connection (9600 bps), order transmission
takes 20-40 seconds, full synchronisation (including stock levels, cash lodgements, reports, etc.)
takes 1-3 minutes.
This sychronisation type is performed through IR port (IRDA) available in PocketPC and mobile phone.
Mobile phone should be placed close to PocketPC (3 cm or less). The phone is acting as modem; the call is
directed to remote GSM modem or another mobile phone (connected to server via IRDA or synchronisation
cable) and allowing to perform a data import/export.
To transmit the data, one should select a type of connection and tap a single button -
the whole process takes place automatically. The data will be transmitted to office without fail and
then processed by your office system. Even in case of broken connection, phone malfunction and
other hindrances, they will not be lost and will be transmitted on the next synchronisation session.
