Beam Pictures to Another CLIE Handheld

PictureGear Pocket helps you to send pictures to the PictureGear Pocket application of another CLIE handheld using Infrared (IR) communication.

Preparations

Turn on IR communication of both sending and receiving CLIE handhelds. Check whether the IR ports of the sending side and receiving side are positioned properly so that communication is possible between them. Place both CLIE handhelds units so that their IR ports are facing each other. The distance between them is 4 ~ 8 inches (10 ~ 20 cm). There should be no obstruction between these units. Make sure that PictureGear Pocket is installed in both receiving and sending devices to receive and send data. The optimal data transfer distance may differ depending on the operational relation between the CLIE handhelds. Change the distance if necessary and try the procedure again. Start the PictureGear Pocket application of the sending side CLIE handheld.

Selecting a picture

Switch PictureGear Pocket of the sending side to the selection
mode ([Preview Mode] or [List Mode]) and select a picture to be
transferred.
Reference: 2.2 "Selecting a picture in [Preview Mode]," 2.3 "Selecting a picture in [List Mode]."

Beam a picture

After switching the screen to [Full Screen Mode], tap the menu and then click the [Beam] icon. PictureGear Pocket detects the receiving side CLIE handheld and starts beaming the picture if communications are possible.
Do not move the CLIE handheld units until the picture is transferred. After the picture is to beam, the sending side CLIE handheld returns to the status before the sending operation. The receiving side CLIE handheld displays the received picture in [Full Screen Mode].
3.2
Advanced Functions of PictureGear Pocket

Even if PictureGear Pocket of the receiving side CLIE handheld is not started when the picture is received, the CLIE handheld still receives the picture. In this case, start PictureGear Pocket after receiving the picture. You can display the received picture in [Full Screen Mode].
You can transfer only one picture at one time. You cannot transfer multiple pictures.
You can only use the infrared data transfer function if picture files are stored in the CLIE handheld. If pictures are stored on a "Memory Stick," you cannot use this function.

Beam Pictures to Another CLIE Handheld / Handling Pictures on a Memory Stick
PictureGear Pocket
If a warning dialog box related to the Memory Stick media appears after you change [Storage] menu to [MS] menu, see Trouble­shooting section at the end of this manual.

Handling pictures on a Memory Stick media

Pictures taken by a digital still camera
Still pictures taken by a digital still camera or digital video camera and stored on a Memory Stick media use a standard picture format called Digital Camera Format (DCF). This is a different format from the one used by PictureGear Pocket which is called "PGP." PictureGear Pocket can show DCF format pictures (i.e., camera picture) and store them in the CLIE handheld or on a Memory Stick media after converting to PGP format (i.e., PDA picture). The CLIE handheld can then handle these pictures.

Browsing the pictures on Memory Stick media

1. Insert a Memory Stick media into the CLIE handheld.
2.
In the [Storage] menu at the top of the screen, change [Internal ] to [
MS ].
3. Use the switch mode at the bottom of the screen to select the picture format.

Using PictureGear Pocket in other applications

Pasting to Address Book

You can paste a picture in PictureGear Pocket to a standard Address Book application. For further details, please refer to the CLIE handheld operating instructions manual.
Regarding DCF
DCF (Design rule for Camera File system) is an industry standard format for storing pictures established by JEIDA (Japan Electronic Industry Development Association).
DCF format pictures are stored in the "DCIM" directory of Memory Stick media
.
PictureGear Pocket displays "Thumbnail pictures" (160x120 dots) of the DCF format pictures. Therefore, the quality is inferior to the real picture.
In order to display clearer pictures with PictureGear Pocket, it is recommended to use PictureGear Lite on your Computer when converting the pictures to PGP format and storing on a Memory Stick media.
