It's possible that you are running into the problems described in the last paragraph of my previous message. >My applciation is using the low level IR api (IrBind, etc) to create a >connection. I haven't figured out getting that to go in POSE either, >though i know that it works to create a connection between a V and >m505. I honestly don't know about the various IR layers, and so don't know if "IrBind", et al, are above or below the IR-to-serial redirection provided by Shortcut-.S. >Questions: > >should both emulators be set to have the same 'serial port' (eg. >localhost:6000) or should they be different? eg. localhost:6000 and >lcoalhost:6010 They should be the same. >is there any way to verify that shortcut S has taken effect?

I think I just surfed PalmGear until I found one that I could use without having to pay for it first. Or perhaps I used something that I found in the Handspring SDK. The name "Hyperterminal" sticks out in my mind, so perhaps you could search on that. I believe that a lot of people test beaming by using another shortcut that puts the device into serial loopback mode. I think this shortcut is .T, but the same documentation that told you about Shortcut-.S should have the answer. Then the developer just beams using a single device and not two, thus avoiding the problems we're discussing here. -- Keith Rollin -- Palm OS Emulator engineer >In article <87254@palm-dev-forum>, Keith Rollin ><[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >> At 7:29 AM -0700 5/25/02, Simeon Leifer wrote: >> >I'm developing on Mac OS X and would like to be able to test some >> >two way IR code using POSE.
