Re: HIL keyboard not found - how to use serial

[Bill Ferguson <ferguson@quango.net>]

The Jornada 720 has a USB type com port.  I've got a special cable that 
terminates in standard serial cable (it came with the unit).   My settings 
are 9600 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity, hardware flow 
control.  Terminal emulation is set to VT102.
