Chapter 1
Getting Started
Before You Start
In order to ensure a successful installation of the Pitch™ Duo software it
is first necessary to confirm that your Mobile Device and your computer
are connected and
configured correctly.
You must also make
sure you are using the
correct version of
ActiveSync for your
Mobile Device’s
operating system.
Make sure you are using the correct version of ActiveSync for
your Mobile Device.
Windows Mobile 5 devices: Must use ActiveSync Version 4.1+
2003SE and earlier devices: Must use ActiveSync Version 3.8
or earlier. ActiveSync Version 4.1 does not have all the features
originally included in Version 3.8.
Once you have the correct version of ActiveSync installed on your host
computer, you will need to connect your Mobile Device to your computer
via the USB cable and perform an ActiveSync operation. Keep the device
connected and turned on to continue.
a. If the ActiveSync is successful, go to the Install the Software
section.
b. If the Active Sync is unsuccessful, reconfirm which version of
ActiveSync you are using and which operating system your
Mobile Device is using. See the above graphic to make sure
you have the right combination. Refer to your Mobile Device
documentation for guidance in configuring the device and
conducting an ActiveSync. Continued problems should be
addressed with the device manufacturer or Microsoft technical
support.
More information on ActiveSync and which versions are
recommended for which Mobile Devices can be found at
Microsoft’s website at www.microsoft.com.

Configure the Mobile Device
Pitch Duo communicates with your Mobile Device via either Bluetooth or
USB – your choice. It is, therefore, important for you to decide how you
want to use your Mobile Device with Pitch Duo. Do you want to use
Bluetooth, USB, or maybe both (just not at the same time)?
Because your Pitch Duo is designed to work with any Mobile Device
running an approved operating system, it is impossible to provide detailed
instructions to help you configure your specific Mobile Device. Instead,
you may be asked to obtain some specific details directly from your
Mobile Device’s Owner’s Manual.
If your Mobile Device is running Windows Mobile 5, go directly to the
Configure Windows Mobile 5 section. If your Mobile Device is running a
Windows Mobile 2003 or earlier operating system, turn the page.
A Guide to Pitch Duo 6

Configure Bluetooth
If you have decided to use Bluetooth to communicate between your
Mobile Device and your Pitch Duo, you will need to configure the
Bluetooth settings. Setting up Bluetooth on these devices is easy; just
follow these simple steps:

Configure Windows Mobile 5 devices
Windows Mobile 5 is a mobile operating system that is very different from
earlier versions. If your Mobile Device is using Windows Mobile 5, you
must first upgrade your ActiveSync software to Version 4.0 or newer.
Enable Serial Communications
Windows Mobile 5 uses RNDIS (Remote Network D
Interface Specification) communications for ActiveS
operations. Pitch Duo uses serial communicat
Therefore, before you can use your Pitch Duo to
communicate via Bluetooth, you will need to configure
your Mobile Device to use serial communicatio
by checking your Programs window for a utility that performs “RNDIS to
Serial” switching. Some Mobile Devices provide this utility (often called
USBSwitch). A few Mobile Devices may call it by a different name. Other
Mobile Devices may not provide it at all.

ions.
ns. Start
If your Mobile Device provides a USB
switching utility program, it may act as a
simple “toggle” between RNDIS and Serial
communications. Others, such as the
USBConfig utility provided with the installation
software, provide a simple menu to allow you
to select which type of communication you
desire to use – RNDIS or Serial. When you have successfully chosen
serial communications, you may see a confirmation of your success,
similar to the one shown. In this case, simply tap on the button in the
upper right corner to continue. If your Mobile Device provides a RNDIS to
Serial switching application, use it and then go to the Configure
Quickpoint section – otherwise, continue with the Install USBConfig
section below.
A Guide to Pitch Duo 10

Install USBConfig
For your convenience, a utility program, called USBConfig, is provided
with your Pitch Duo in case you need it. This utility will enable you to
switch between RNDIS and Serial communications.
It is best to use the utility provided by the Mobile Device maker, if
one is available. Therefore, you should always check your Mobile
Device Owner Manual, Mobile Device Technical Support, and/or
Mobile Device support website to see if they offer such a utility.
To install USBConfig onto your M
Device, open your host compute
ActiveSync window.

ActiveSync may need to
convert the file. Click OK to
continue.
After you have successfully moved the USBConfig.cab file to your
Mobile Device, you will need to install it.

the upper right corner, followed by the in the upper right
corner of the File Manager to exit and return to the Programs
Window. Tap on the USBConfig icon to bring up the USB
Setting window. Tap on Serial (Pitch), and then tap on Apply
to switch your Mobile Device communications to Serial Mode. You will be
prompted that the Mobile Device will restart so the change can take
effect.
Configure Quickpoint for Bluetooth
In order for Quickpoint to communicate via Bluetooth, it is necessary to
configure the serial communication ports. This is done by finding an
available serial COM port, defining that port for Bluetooth use, and then
telling your Pitch Duo which port to use.
1. Tap Start >Programs >Quickpoint to open the
Quickpoint application.
2. When Quickpoint opens, tap on the File button
in the lower left corner of the display window.
3. Next, click on the Connections option on the

4. Tap on the arrow for the
dropdown list box in the
Connections window to
display a listing of COM
ports that are being used.
Some Mobile Devices, such as the Moto-Q will automatically
display a COM port number for Bluetooth communications
when Bluetooth has been turned on. If you see it in the
dropdown list, select it, tap OK, and go to step 7.
5. Look for COM port numbers that are not displayed in this list, but
do not select any yet. In this case, COM0:, COM4:, and COM7:
are not listed,
therefore they
are the most
likely
candidates for
Bluetooth
use. Because
COM port
usage will
vary from
Mobile Device
to Mobile
Device, it may be necessary to
try more than one.
6. Tap on
the
Add/Manage Pitch Connections
button and enter the COM port
number that Pitch will use for
Bluetooth communications. Tap
on the OK button when finished
to exit back to the Quickpoint
Connection window.
If you plan to use both Bluetooth and USB communications,
you can also enter the COM port number currently assigned to
USB as shown in the active COM ports list above. If your
device does not support USB communications, do not enter a
USB port number.

done very quickly by using the on the Port dropdown list of
active COM ports to select Pitch Bluetooth port. Tap on the OK
button when finished.
10. Finally, tap on the EXIT button at the bottom of the Quickpoint
window to close Quickpoint. If you selected USB in Step 7
above, you can now go directly to Chapter 3 to learn how to use
Quickpoint for your PowerPoint presentations.
Turn on Bluetooth Communications
The next step is to enable Bluetooth communications on your Windows
Mobile 5 device, The following simple steps should work for most devices.
However, you may need to consult your device’s documentation if you
have any questions or if you need more details on how to enable
Bluetooth on your specific device:
1. Tap Start >Settings >Connections tab (or System tab) to
locate your Bluetooth Manager.
Tap on the Bluetooth Icon to open the
Bluetooth Manager. Next, tap the Turn
