2.0) Installation Process StepsTop
First, make sure you got the original distribution package from our website. If you got another package, the installation steps may differ. The original distribution package is usually a .zip file with both the source of the program and its executable form in a .zip file also.
  1. Unzip the original distribution package to a temporary location on your hard drive (to unzip files, you would need a program like WinZip or Windows Me and later). Then, open File Explorer and go to that location.
  2. You must transfer the folder 'Pocket Control PC - NetCF' to your device. This, you can do it with many ways (through bluetooth, infrared, activesync etc.). I'll only explain ActiveSync.
  3. Establish an Activesync connection with your smartphone (If you do not know how, please read 2.1). Go to File Explorer and explore 'Mobile Device' under 'My Computer'. Double-click your device. Go to \Storage\Program Files and paste the folder there.
  4. Now, open the folder you pasted. Right click Pocket Control PC - NetCf.exe and click Create Shorcut. Rename the shorcut to Pocket Control PC - NetCf.exe. Right click it and click Cut. Go now to \Storage\windows\Start Menu and paste it there. And voila your program shorcut. You many need to restart your device.

2.1) Connection between PC and DeviceTop
The programs (host and client) are based on Microsoft's .NET Framework. They also use TCP/IP to connect to each other. But to connect through TCP/IP, there are many ways.

To provide a TCP/IP connection between the PC and your device, i'll only explain how to establish an Activesync connection. To make an activesync connection, many ways exist. The most usual way would be through a USB cradle which is provided with a purchase of a smartphone. Other than that, devices can connect to Activesync through USB, COM, network and infrared (follow Activesync's instructions for creating such a connection).
Now, the most useful way to connect to Activesync would be through bluetooth (if your smartphone and PC have it). If your PC has bluetooth, it must have a program for the bluetooth. Now, activate bluetooth both on the PC and the device and set it to Discoverable mode. Before continuing, please make sure that the Bluetooth Serial ports are also activated on your device. For my smartphone, I had to go to Start > Tools > Serial Bluetooth and check the checkboxes to achieve that. Search now for the PC or the device to make a pair. Follow the program's directions to achieve that. When the pair is done, search for bluetooth service from your PC. You should find the smartphone and a Serial connection service. Activate the service and search its properties to find which COM port it occupies. When you find it, open Activesync, File > Connection Settings... > Allow serial cable > Select the COM port. Now, go to your device. Each time you want to connect now to the PC's activesync do this (for smartphone): 1) Activate bluetooth. 2) Open Start > Activesync > Menu > Connect through BT. At last, a connection will be established. If this is the first time you connect the smartphone, a partnership window will be displayed on your PC and you must follow its directions.
If you didn't make it, or have problems, please e-mail me and I will provide you with thorough steps for achieving a bluetooth serial connection between PC and your device.
Also, sorry about the fact that this guide is mainly intended for smartphones and not for pocket pcs or pcs also.
