We strongly recommend you contact your department's
computing support office for assistance with setting up SyncML on
your PDA.
Configuration
To configure your SyncML software for use with wireless or cell
phone operation, open the SyncML application on your PDA. Click the
Synthesis SyncML STD menu item and select
Settings.
In the Profile Settings window, enter the following information for each of
the fields:
- SyncML Server URL:
https://calendar.dartmouth.edu/ocst-bin/ocas.fcgi
- User: Your Oracle Calendar user name.
Note: This name must be your complete DND
(BlitzMail) user name.
- Password: Enter your Oracle Calendar password
(this is your BlitzMail password; you may need to enter it
twice).
Under the Synchronize databases section, click the check box next
to Events. If you also want to synchronize Tasks, be sure to
check that box as well.
Click the More button.
In the next window, enter ./Calendar/Events for
the Events Server Path.
In this section, you can also specify the range of dates you wish to
synchronize. The default is to synchronize information from 30 days prior
to the current date through 90 days from the current date. The
current date is the day on which you synchronize. There is no
hard and fast rule on what is best; it depends on what you find convenient to
have on your PDA organizer and the amount of memory (RAM) your PDA has
available. The more data you sync, the longer it will take to sync your data,
and the more memory it will use. Setting the date range on your PDA will not
affect the information that is already in your Oracle Calendar
program that is on your computer.
Note: It is a good idea to test the installation with a
short date range first to be sure that calendar events sync
properly from your desktop calendar to your PDA and vice versa. After
synchronizing and verifying both calendars, go back and reset the date ranges
to those desired and sync again.
If you are synchronizing tasks, enter ./Calendar/Tasks for
the Tasks Server Path.
Note: Be sure to enter the URL and Path information
exactly as it is shown above or it will not synchronize
properly.
Click Done, then OK.
Click the double-arrow synchronize button next to Start;
your synchronization should begin. Once it completes, check your PDA calendar
and your Oracle Calendar events for the date ranges you specified.
Registration
Once you purchase your SyncML software from Kagi.com,
you should follow the registration instructions that were e-mailed to you by
Kagi. Be sure to enter the information exactly as presented
and as the instructions indicate. You can purchase the software anytime during
the 30-day trial period and enter the registration information to allow
continued use of the SyncML software.
