Connecting to an office computer
Connect the handheld to an office computer to transfer information, settings, and files from one device to the other, or to install software onto the handheld.
Connect the handheld to a computer using the USB cable provided with the device. This is a specific cable which fits with the device's USB Type C connector. The use of any other USB cable will not guarantee a good connection or will not provide a USB connection at all.
