![[Open iButton]](images/opencan.jpg) To

Notes:
- Our recommended
supplier FOR Palm Modem Cables and Palm Serial Cables is PN
Technologies.
- If you have a Sony
or Handspring, you must use one of the following:
- Option 3 is only
valid for HotSync cradles that connect to the serial port of your PC.
If your Palm HotSync cradle is USB you cannot use it.
- Radio Shack is
our preferred vendor for a null modem and gender changer.
For
Option 1:
- Just connect one
end of the Palm modem cable to he Palm's serial port and the other end
of the cable to the DS9097U.
- Connect the null
modem to the gender changer. You should now have a connector with two
male ends.
- Disconnect your
HotSync cradle from your PC, and connect the HotSync cradle into one
end of the null modem/gender changer (doesn't matter which end).
- Connect the Blue
Dot Receptor to the other end of the null modem/gender changer.
- Drop your Palm
in the HotSync cradle and you can now read the Thermochron that's in
the Blue Dot Receptor.
For
Option 2:
- Connect the null
modem to the gender changer. You should now have a connector with two
male ends.
- Disconnect your
HotSync cradle from your PC, and connect the HotSync cradle into one
end of the null modem/gender changer (doesn't matter which end).
- Connect the Blue
Dot Receptor to the other end of the null modem/gender changer.
- Drop your Palm
in the HotSync cradle and you can now read the Thermochron that's in
the Blue Dot Receptor.
For
Option 3:
- Connect the null
modem to the gender changer. You should now have a connector with two
male ends.
- Connect the HotSync
cable into one end of the null modem/gender changer (doesn't matter
which end).
- Connect the Blue
Dot Receptor to the other end of the null modem/gender changer.
Note that DigitSense
only sells iTemp software; you'll need to order the Thermochron hardware
separately from Dallas Semiconductor.
