Exchange Server
To keep up-to-date with your company e-mails and meeting schedules
while you’re out of the office, you can connect your device to the Internet
wirelessly and synchronize with your company’s Exchange Server.
Set up an Exchange Server connection
Before you can synchronize or access information on the Exchange Server,
you need to set up an Exchange Server connection on your device. You
need to get the following information from your network administrator and
enter them on your device:
• Exchange Server name (must be the Outlook Web Access server
name)
• Domain name
• User name and password that you use at work
If you have not synchronized your device with your PC, follow these steps to
set up an Exchange Server connection.
1. Tap Start > Messaging > New E-mail Account.

Configure Server.
Start synchronization
Before you start synchronizing with the Exchange Server, make sure your
device has been set up with a data connection to the Internet so that you
can synchronize wirelessly. For more information about connections, see
Chapter 10.
After you finish setting up an Exchange Server connection, your device
automatically starts synchronization.
You can manually start synchronization anytime by tapping Sync in
ActiveSync.
Note If you connect your device to your office computer via a USB or Bluetooth
connection, you can use this connection to the PC to “pass through” to the
network and download Outlook e-mails and other information to your
device.
8.2 Working With Company E-mails
Your device gives you instant access to your company e-mails and lets
you manage your messages easier. Direct Push, Fetch Mail, Remote e-mail
search, and e-mail flags are just some of the tools you can use to manage
your e-mails.
Note Some messaging features depend on the Microsoft Exchange Server version
used in your company. Please check with your network administrator for the
availability of these features.
Automatic synchronization through Direct Push
Direct Push technology (push e-mail feature) enables you to receive new
e-mails on your device as soon as they arrive in your Inbox on the Exchange
Server. With this feature, items such as contacts, calendar and tasks are
126 Working With Company E-mails and Meeting Appointments
also immediately updated onto your device when these items have been
changed or new entries have been added on the Exchange Server. To make
Direct Push work, you need to have a GPRS connection on your device.
You need to perform a full synchronization between your device and the
Exchange Server first before Direct Push can be enabled.
Requirement The Direct Push feature works for your device only if your company
is using Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 Service Pack 2 (SP2)
with Exchange ActiveSync or higher version.
To enable Direct Push via Comm Manager
1. Tap Start > Programs > Comm Manager or tap Start > Settings >
Connections tab > Comm Manager.
2. On the Comm Manager screen, tap the Microsoft Direct Push button
to enable or disable push e-mail.
When enabled, the ON indicator is activated, which indicates that
you will receive e-mails as they arrive. When disabled, you need to
manually retrieve your e-mails..
To enable Direct Push via ActiveSync
1. In ActiveSync on your device, tap Menu > Schedule.
2. Select As items arrive in the Peak times and Off-peak times boxes.
Note When both the GPRS and Wi-Fi connections are turned on at the same time,
the Direct Push feature will always opt for Wi-Fi.
Scheduled synchronization
If you do not want to use Direct Push, you can set a regular schedule for
synchronizing Outlook e-mail and information.
1. In ActiveSync on your device, tap Menu > Schedule.
2. Select a shorter time interval in the Peak times box for you to be able
to receive e-mails more frequently. (Peak times which usually refer to
your working hours when e-mail volume is high).
3. Select a longer interval in the Off-peak times box.
Tip To set the days and hours that make up your peak and off-peak times, tap
Adjust peak times to fit your schedule.
Working With Company E-mails and Meeting Appointments 127
Instant download through Fetch Mail
The Fetch Mail feature downloads an entire e-mail immediately without the
need for you to perform a full Send/Receive action. This limits the download
to just the e-mail message that you want and helps save data cost.
Requirement Fetch Mail works for your device only if your company is using
Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 or higher.
1. Tap Start > Messaging > Outlook E-mail.
2. Tap an e-mail message to open it.
3. By default, only the first few kilobytes of the message is shown. To

the message body to be downloaded.
Tip For information about changing e-mail sync options such as the initial
download size limit for e-mail, see "Customize e-mail settings" in Chapter 7.
Note When you receive an e-mail that contains a link to a document such as a PDF
or Microsoft Office document located on SharePoint or an internal file server,
you can tap the link to view the document on your device. You can view the
document only if you have a Microsoft Outlook account that synchronizes
with Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 or later. Exchange Server must also
be set up to allow access to SharePoint document libraries or internal file
servers.

• When the device is not in use, press POWER to switch off the display.
• Tap Start > Settings > System tab > Power to open the Power
settings screen. On the Advanced tab of the Power settings screen,
you can specify when your device automatically turns off the display
to conserve battery power. For optimum conservation, specify 3
minutes or less.
• Use the AC adapter to plug your device into external power whenever
possible, especially when using a storage card or when using a
modem or other peripherals.
• Adjust the backlight settings. For more information, see “To set the
backlight to dim after a time delay” in Chapter 4.
• When you know you are out of range of your Wi-Fi networks, turn
Wi-Fi off. Searching for networks consumes a lot of power. For more
information about Wi-Fi, see Chapter 10.
• Turn Bluetooth off when you are not using it. Make your device visible
to other devices only when you are trying to establish a Bluetooth
partnership. For more information about Bluetooth, see Chapter 10.
• Lower the volume.
• Close battery-intensive programs, such as the Camera, when you are
done using them. Make sure the programs are ended and are not

Federal Communications Commission Notice
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2)
this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference
to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not
occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harm-ful interference
to radio or TV reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment on and
off, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio or television technician for help.
Modifications
The FCC requires the user to be notified that any changes or modifications made to the
device that are not expressly approved by High Tech Computer Corporation may void
the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
212 Appendix
Safety precautions for RF exposure
• Use only original manufacturer-approved accessories, or accessories that do not
contain any metal.
• Use of non-original manufacturer-approved accessories may violate your local RF
exposure guidelines and should be avoided.
Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals
Your device contains a radio transmitter and receiver. The radiated output power is
far below the international radio frequency exposure limits. These limits are part of
comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general
population. The guidelines are based on the safety standards previously set by
international standards bodies:
• American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE. C95.1-1992
• National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP). Report 86.
1986
• International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1996
• Ministry of Health (Canada), Safety Code 6. The standards include a substantial
safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and
health.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of measurement
known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The standard incorporates a substantial
margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any
variations in usage.
As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, users are advised that for
satisfactory operation of the equipment and for the safety of personnel, it is
recommended that no part of the human body be allowed to come too close to the
antenna during operation of the equipment.
Your device has an internal antenna. Use only the supplied integral antenna. Use of
unauthorized or modified antennas may impair call quality and damage the phone,
causing loss of performance and SAR levels exceeding the recommended limits as well
as result in non-compliance with local regulatory requirements in your country.
To assure optimal phone performance and ensure human exposure to RF energy is
within the guidelines set forth in the relevant standards; always use your device only
in its normal-use position. Do not touch or hold the antenna area unnecessarily when
placing or receiving a phone call. Contact with the antenna area may impair call quality
and cause your device to operate at a higher power level than needed. Avoiding
contact with the antenna area when the phone is IN USE optimizes the antenna
performance and the battery life.
Appendix 213
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions specified by the FCC
with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency
bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual
SAR level of the phone while operation can be well below the maximum value. This is
because the phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only
the power required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless
base station antenna, the lower the power output. Before a phone model is available
for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed
the limit established by the government-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The
tests are performed in positions and locations (for example, at the ear and worn on
the body) as required by the FCC for each model. (Bodyworn measurements may differ
among phone models, depending upon available accessories and FCC requirements).
For body worn operation, to maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines,
use only original manufacturer approved accessories. When carrying the phone while
it is on, use the specific original manufacturer supplied or approved carrying case,
holster, or other body-worn accessory.
SAR Information
1.563 mW/g @1g
Telecommunications & Internet Association (TIA) safety
information
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum
separation of six inches be maintained between a handheld wireless phone
and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These
recommendations are consistent with the independent research by and
recommendations of Wireless Technology Research. Persons with pacemakers:
• Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches from their pacemaker when
the phone is turned ON.
• Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket.
• Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for
interference. If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place,
turn the phone OFF immediately.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of
such interference, you may want to consult your service provider, or call the customer
service line to discuss alternatives.
214 Appendix
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device
to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician
may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.
Turn the phone OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas
instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that
could be sensitive to external RF energy.

8.1 Synchronizing Your Device with the
Exchange Server
To keep up-to-date with your company e-mails and meeting schedules
while you’re out of the office, you can connect your device to the Internet
wirelessly and synchronize with your company’s Exchange Server.
Set up an Exchange Server connection
Before you can synchronize or access information on the Exchange Server,
you need to set up an Exchange Server connection on your device. You
need to get the following information from your network administrator and
enter them on your device:
• Exchange Server name (must be the Outlook Web Access server
name)
• Domain name
• User name and password that you use at work
If you have not synchronized your device with your PC, follow these steps to
set up an Exchange Server connection.
1. Tap Start > Messaging > New E-mail Account.
2. Enter your e-mail address. Clear the Try to get e-mail settings
automatically from the Internet check box, then tap Next.
3. Select Exchange server in the Your e-mail provider list, then tap
Next.
4. Tap Next again.
5. In Server address, enter the Exchange Server name, and tap Next.
6. Enter your user name, password, and domain, and tap Next.
Tip To change the rules for resolving synchronization conflicts, tap
Advanced.
7. Select the items that you want to sync with the Exchange Server.
8. To change synchronization settings of an information type, for
example, E-mail, select the type of information, and tap Settings.
9. Tap Finish.
Working With Company E-mails and Meeting Appointments 125
Note If you synchronized e-mails with your PC before, open ActiveSync on
your device and tap Menu > Add Server Source to set up an Exchange
Server connection. When you're prompted to select information types for
synchronization, you need to clear the E-mail check box under the Windows
PC item first before you can select E-mail under Exchange Server.
Tip To change Exchange Server settings, open ActiveSync then tap Menu >
Configure Server.
Start synchronization
Before you start synchronizing with the Exchange Server, make sure your
device has been set up with a data connection to the Internet so that you
can synchronize wirelessly. For more information about connections, see
Chapter 10.
After you finish setting up an Exchange Server connection, your device
automatically starts synchronization.
You can manually start synchronization anytime by tapping Sync in
ActiveSync.
Note If you connect your device to your office computer via a USB or Bluetooth
connection, you can use this connection to the PC to “pass through” to the
network and download Outlook e-mails and other information to your
device.
8.2 Working With Company E-mails
Your device gives you instant access to your company e-mails and lets
you manage your messages easier. Direct Push, Fetch Mail, Remote e-mail
search, and e-mail flags are just some of the tools you can use to manage
your e-mails.
Note Some messaging features depend on the Microsoft Exchange Server version
used in your company. Please check with your network administrator for the
availability of these features.
Automatic synchronization through Direct Push
Direct Push technology (push e-mail feature) enables you to receive new
e-mails on your device as soon as they arrive in your Inbox on the Exchange
Server. With this feature, items such as contacts, calendar and tasks are
126 Working With Company E-mails and Meeting Appointments
also immediately updated onto your device when these items have been
changed or new entries have been added on the Exchange Server. To make
Direct Push work, you need to have a GPRS connection on your device.
You need to perform a full synchronization between your device and the
Exchange Server first before Direct Push can be enabled.
Requirement The Direct Push feature works for your device only if your company
is using Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 Service Pack 2 (SP2)
with Exchange ActiveSync or higher version.
To enable Direct Push via Comm Manager
1. Tap Start > Programs > Comm Manager or tap Start > Settings >
Connections tab > Comm Manager.
2. On the Comm Manager screen, tap the Microsoft Direct Push button
to enable or disable push e-mail.
When enabled, the ON indicator is activated, which indicates that
you will receive e-mails as they arrive. When disabled, you need to
manually retrieve your e-mails..
To enable Direct Push via ActiveSync
1. In ActiveSync on your device, tap Menu > Schedule.
2. Select As items arrive in the Peak times and Off-peak times boxes.
Note When both the GPRS and Wi-Fi connections are turned on at the same time,
the Direct Push feature will always opt for Wi-Fi.
Scheduled synchronization
If you do not want to use Direct Push, you can set a regular schedule for
synchronizing Outlook e-mail and information.
1. In ActiveSync on your device, tap Menu > Schedule.
2. Select a shorter time interval in the Peak times box for you to be able
to receive e-mails more frequently. (Peak times which usually refer to
your working hours when e-mail volume is high).
3. Select a longer interval in the Off-peak times box.
Tip To set the days and hours that make up your peak and off-peak times, tap
Adjust peak times to fit your schedule.
Working With Company E-mails and Meeting Appointments 127
Instant download through Fetch Mail
The Fetch Mail feature downloads an entire e-mail immediately without the
need for you to perform a full Send/Receive action. This limits the download
to just the e-mail message that you want and helps save data cost.
Requirement Fetch Mail works for your device only if your company is using
Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 or higher.
1. Tap Start > Messaging > Outlook E-mail.
2. Tap an e-mail message to open it.
3. By default, only the first few kilobytes of the message is shown. To
download the whole e-mail, finger-scroll to the end of the message
then tap Get the rest of this message.
4. A “Downloading message” status appears. Wait for the remainder of
the message body to be downloaded.
Tip For information about changing e-mail sync options such as the initial
download size limit for e-mail, see "Customize e-mail settings" in Chapter 7.
Note When you receive an e-mail that contains a link to a document such as a PDF
or Microsoft Office document located on SharePoint or an internal file server,
you can tap the link to view the document on your device. You can view the
document only if you have a Microsoft Outlook account that synchronizes
with Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 or later. Exchange Server must also
be set up to allow access to SharePoint document libraries or internal file
servers.
Search for e-mails on the Exchange Server
You can access messages that are not available on your device by searching
your Microsoft Exchange Server mailbox. The search results will be
downloaded and displayed in a Search Results folder.
Requirement Your company must be using Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 or
higher.
1. Tap Start > Messaging > Outlook E-mail.
2. Tap Menu > Tools > Search Server.
3. In the Look for text box, enter the search keyword.

Flag your messages
Flags serve as a reminder for you to follow-up on important issues or
requests contained in the e-mail messages. Flagging messages, which
has been a useful feature on desktop Outlook E-mail, can also be done in
Outlook Mobile on your device. You can flag received e-mail messages on
your device.
Requirement Flags are enabled only if e-mails are synchronized with Microsoft
Exchange Server 2007 or higher. Flags are disabled or hidden
if e-mails are synchronized with earlier versions of Microsoft
Exchange Server.
To flag or unflag a message
1. Tap Start > Messaging > Outlook
E-mail.
2. Select a message or open a message.
3. Tap Menu > Follow Up and select one
of the following options:
• Set Flag Mark the message with

the issue or request in the e-mail is
already completed.
• Clear Flag Remove the flag to
unmark the message.
Note E-mail message reminders are displayed on your device if the messages are
flagged with reminders and synchronized from the Exchange Server.
Working With Company E-mails and Meeting Appointments 129

not there are conflicting or adjacent meetings.
Requirement Your company must be using Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 or
higher.

Federal Communications Commission Notice
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2)
this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference
to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not
occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harm-ful interference
to radio or TV reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment on and
off, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio or television technician for help.
Modifications
The FCC requires the user to be notified that any changes or modifications made to the
device that are not expressly approved by High Tech Computer Corporation may void
the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
212 Appendix
Safety precautions for RF exposure
• Use only original manufacturer-approved accessories, or accessories that do not
contain any metal.
• Use of non-original manufacturer-approved accessories may violate your local RF
exposure guidelines and should be avoided.
Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals
Your device contains a radio transmitter and receiver. The radiated output power is
far below the international radio frequency exposure limits. These limits are part of
comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general
population. The guidelines are based on the safety standards previously set by
international standards bodies:
• American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE. C95.1-1992
• National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP). Report 86.
1986
• International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1996
• Ministry of Health (Canada), Safety Code 6. The standards include a substantial
safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and
health.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of measurement
known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The standard incorporates a substantial
margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any
variations in usage.
As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, users are advised that for
satisfactory operation of the equipment and for the safety of personnel, it is
recommended that no part of the human body be allowed to come too close to the
antenna during operation of the equipment.
Your device has an internal antenna. Use only the supplied integral antenna. Use of
unauthorized or modified antennas may impair call quality and damage the phone,
causing loss of performance and SAR levels exceeding the recommended limits as well
as result in non-compliance with local regulatory requirements in your country.
To assure optimal phone performance and ensure human exposure to RF energy is
within the guidelines set forth in the relevant standards; always use your device only
in its normal-use position. Do not touch or hold the antenna area unnecessarily when
placing or receiving a phone call. Contact with the antenna area may impair call quality
and cause your device to operate at a higher power level than needed. Avoiding
contact with the antenna area when the phone is IN USE optimizes the antenna
performance and the battery life.
Appendix 213
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions specified by the FCC
with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency
bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual
SAR level of the phone while operation can be well below the maximum value. This is
because the phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only
the power required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless
base station antenna, the lower the power output. Before a phone model is available
for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed
the limit established by the government-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The
tests are performed in positions and locations (for example, at the ear and worn on
the body) as required by the FCC for each model. (Bodyworn measurements may differ
among phone models, depending upon available accessories and FCC requirements).
For body worn operation, to maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines,
use only original manufacturer approved accessories. When carrying the phone while
it is on, use the specific original manufacturer supplied or approved carrying case,
holster, or other body-worn accessory.
SAR Information
1.563 mW/g @1g
Telecommunications & Internet Association (TIA) safety
information
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum
separation of six inches be maintained between a handheld wireless phone
and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These
recommendations are consistent with the independent research by and
recommendations of Wireless Technology Research. Persons with pacemakers:
• Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches from their pacemaker when
the phone is turned ON.
• Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket.
• Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for
interference. If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place,
turn the phone OFF immediately.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of
such interference, you may want to consult your service provider, or call the customer
service line to discuss alternatives.
214 Appendix
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device
to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician
may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.
Turn the phone OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas
instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that
could be sensitive to external RF energy.
