Always, always, always, I get the following error trying to download a background image via IR:
"Error occurred while wireless link was sending file data to the other machine. The data is invalid"
I have managed to send a background image once so far, out of many attempts...

Hi !

What for an OS do you use ? A friend of mine had the same problem under Windows 2000...!! But I don’t have any problem at all under Windows 98...

May be it can help...

I had the same problem. I changed the IR-transfer rate to 9600 in the Windows IR-Monitor. Since then it works. Takes a few seconds per image, but it works.
If this helps, you can increase the transfer rate to 19200 and more maybe that works too.

Thanks folks - I am using Win2000, and slowing down the IR transmission rate worked perfectly !

Please excuse me being a bit slow, but how, in Windows do you change the IR transmission rate?

I have succeeded in sending smaller files to my t68 but not larger. One site suggested very large files could be sent.

I also tried the Sendfile software v. 1.0.7 but that didin't work either!

@ofiaich
in Windows ME,2000,XP you can change the transfer rate in "My Computer" - "Properties" - "Hardware Manager". There you look for the "IR-Device" entry and choose "properties" againg. There should be a tab "IrDA settings" where you can change the transfer rate.
For Windows 98 look for the IrDA icon in the taskbar right click on it and you get the IrDA settings window.

Thanks Kimi!

But!! I think I am being a bit too slow! I also accessed that from the control panel. My IrD is an USB device. I can see driver details but not a data rate!

Haha! I though I knew Windows quite well but Dream On!!

ahem - well let me think about it. Which Windows version do you use? Which IrDA device did you connect? Maybe you can find some infos on the manufacturer's website? I have a notebook with built in IrDA as well as a desktop with a serial ActiSYS 200+ IrDA converter.

Thanks Kimi

I am using Windows ME. The Ir device is an Actisys USB wireless device.

I didn't think to check out their site but found an address so I will do so. www.actisys.com/

Thanks!

So that's the ACTiSYS IR-2000U? I guess you can choose FIR or SIR mode somewhere. FIR (Fast Infrared) is the new standard that works only with 4MBit/s, too much for the poor T68. You have to use SIR mode (Serial Infrared), that one you can configure with 9600 upwards.
