There
are two ways to connect your phone to your PC:
Infrared
Cable - connect to the USB port on your PC. The
Nokia Connectivity Adapter Cable DKU-5 is available
as an enhancement for your Nokia 7210.
The connection between your phone and your PC is made
through the Nokia Connection Manager, which is automatically
installed when you install PC Suite 5.0.
The simplest way to access the Nokia Connection Manager
is to double click the phone icon that appears on your
task bar:
Once you have double clicked the phone icon on your task
bar, the connection manager will open:
The connection types are managed using the three icons
at the top of the connection manager. The yellow icon
manages the serial cable connection, the red icon manages
the infrared connection and the blue icon manages the
Bluetooth connection (not available for the Nokia 7210).
If your phone is physically connected to your PC, but
you cannot get the PC Suite to recognize the connection:
Click the icon that represents the connection type
that you have chosen.
The name of your phone should now show on the connection
manager. Select your phone and click Apply
and then OK. (Alternatively, you can do the
same by double clicking your phone name on the list.)
If the above steps do not work and you are using infrared,
make sure that your infrared connection is active in your
phone. Additionally, make sure that there is no other
application (such as a PC application for another phone
or pocket PC) using the COM ports. If there is, close
it. If the connection still does not work, reboot both
your phone and your PC.
