I don't have this product but I did a google search for MA-620 driver and the first result here is their drive page and half way down are pc drivers, including ME.

give that a go!

Put the disk in. Click on programs. Then Run, and type start.exe Then ok, should find the drivers you want. In that list you wrote, there was only 1 system file. The .sis file, but i assume by the name of it that its another help file.

Hi !
I'd like send SMS from my notebook with Ericson T68 via infrared. I have a Borland Delphi 5 component for sending/receiving SMS, under Windows 2000 but it requires the COM port number for connecting.
The infra connection is living but how could I know the COM port number, and what else can I do for the success ?

Please HELP !
Thanks.

Look for the COM port under Device Manager -> Ports

Thanks for Device Manager ! It works ! (COM4)

But I have a next problem. I can send only one SMS. The software cannot send the second one.
I have to disable the IR connection in the phone, than turn it back again and than I can send the next SMS.
I design an auto sending system, so it is a big problem.

thanks for your help in advance.

That appears to be a programming issue on your part. Maybe your program is trying to open the port every time, even though the port is already open? Just a thought.

i ran into a similar problem when installing my IR dongle on WinXP. all i did was delete the device from my hardware manager, then reboot. when it came back it was installed just fine.

Thanks for the tips guys. It seems that the reinstalling of driver helps.

yup baby eye. all the transfers u have specied, can be done both ways.


@jmjkidd5 ,

driver files are *.sys files, but u need a *.inf for the driver installer to install the same.

on Windows XP, most of the drivers are installed on the fly,
e.g., if u plug a USB data cable to the USB port, the driver gets installed automatically without the help of the CD.

The same holds good in case of ir devices too.
