Using the Phone FeaturesUser’s Guide 5–35Revised: 12/16/04TTY Functionality for the Hearing-ImpairedNote: The TTY software application is included on the Companion CD and must be downloaded onto the HP iPAQ before it can be enabled.This HP iPAQ supports TTY (Tele-typewriter) functionality. This functionality allows hearing-impaired persons to communicate using existing telephony infrastructure, including cellular phones. To achieve this, separately purchased TTY devices must be connected to the telephones on both ends of a telephone call session, and the TTY software application must be downloaded from the Companion CD onto the HP iPAQ. The sending TTY device generates a distinct audio tone for every supported character, and these tones are decoded and converted back into text on the receiving TTY device.Due to the use of audio compression codecs in modern digital cellular telephones, these TTY audio tones may be unintentionally distorted while being transmitted through cellular telephones. In order for TTY devices to continue to work in cellular networks, the cellular telephone must be set into a mode that optimizes the compression codec to handle TTY tones instead of the human voice.Note: For information on connecting TTY devices to the HP iPAQ, refer to the TTY device manufacturer’s documentation.Enabling TTY SupportBefore connecting the optional TTY device to the phone, you must enable TTY support in order to prepare the HP iPAQ Phone to expect a TTY device to be connected.To enable TTY support:1.

Revised: 12/16/04User’s Guide 7–17Making Your Data ConnectionsThe HP iPAQ hw6500 series offers you a comprehensive set of wireless capabilities to keep you connected in or out of the office. With Global System for Mobile Communications/General Packet Radio Service/Enhanced Data rates for Global Evolution (GSM/GPRS/EDGE), and Bluetooth integrated into a single device, you have broad coverage offering high speed access to the Internet, and to business and personal information. Note: EDGE is a global standard for wireless wide-area data communication being rapidly deployed by GSM carriers worldwide. Actual download speeds may vary. Coverage is subject to transmission limitations and terrain, system, capacity and other limitations. Not all features and service options are available in all areas.You can use the following options to get connected:■Use the GPRS/EDGE technology integrated on your HP iPAQ to connect to a Virtual Private Network (VPN)■Use the GPRS/EDGE technology integrated on your HP iPAQ to remotely connect to your mobile Internet Service Provider (ISP)HPConfidential
7–2 User’s GuideMaking Your Data ConnectionsRevised: 12/16/04■Make a wireless GSM/GPRS/EDGE connection to place a phone call or send or receive e-mail, text message, or Multimedia Message Service (MMS) messages. Note: EDGE technology delivers faster data speed than GPRS to mobile devices. It allows users to connect to the Internet and send and receive data, including digital images, Web pages and photographs faster than with a GSM/GPRS network. If a network provider does not have EDGE technology deployed, the HP iPAQ defaults to GPRS data transfer rates. Because EDGE is integrated into GPRS technology when it is enabled by your service provider, there is no visible means of identifying when it is being used. You will only be aware of faster data transmission.■Transfer information between Bluetooth enabled devices■Transfer information between two Infrared (IrDA) enabled portsNote: Use of dial-up and wireless Internet, e-mail, corporate networks, and other wireless communications, such as Bluetooth-enabled devices, may require separately purchased additional hardware and other compatible equipment, in addition to a separately purchased service contract. Check with your service provider for availability and coverage in your area. Not all Web content may be available. Some Web content may require installation of additional software. GPRS may not be available in all networks. GPRS data transmission speeds may vary based upon network capabilities and other conditions. The establishment and continuation of a GPRS connection depends on network availability, provider support and signal strength.Note: For more information on this subject, refer to the Help file on your HP iPAQ by tapping Start > Help > Connections.HPConfidential
Making Your Data ConnectionsUser’s Guide 7–3Revised: 12/16/04Impact of Data Connection When Phone Call is ReceivedClass B mobile phones may be attached to both GPRS and GSM services, using one service at a time. Class B enables making/ receiving a voice call, or sending/receiving an text message during a GPRS connection. During voice calls or text messaging, GPRS services are suspended and then resumed automatically after the call or text message session has ended.Using GSM/GPRS/EDGE ConnectionsGSM/GPRS/EDGE technology is integrated into your HP iPAQ. To send or receive data over a GSM/GPRS/EDGE network, you must have an account with a mobile telephone service provider that supports GSM/GPRS/EDGE data services and an activated SIM card. The service provider must enable the GPRS data features on your account to activate it and must have EDGE technology on the network for this capability to be used on the HP iPAQ. If EDGE is not enabled, the HP iPAQ will use GPRS.Creating a GPRS/EDGE Connection A GPRS connection provides high-speed data transfer and is typically used for Web browsing and to send and receive small bursts of data such as e-mail and MMS messages.To create a GPRS connection, you must subscribe with a GSM service provider that supports GPRS. After you configure your GPRS connection and connect to the GPRS network, you may be required to authenticate GPRS.Note: Your service provider must enable the GPRS features on your account.HPConfidential

12/16/04User’s Guide 8–18Using GPS NavigationGetting Acquainted Your HP iPAQ includes Global Positioning System (GPS) Navigation technology. GPS Navigation technology is based on a worldwide system of GPS satellites orbiting earth that continuously transmit digital radio signals. These radio signals contain data on the satellites’ locations and their exact clock time and are used to determine your location on the earth. Note: To access GPS satellites and establish your exact position, a line of sight is required. This means your position must be situated outdoors or close to a window.The GPS Navigation software provides you with turn-by-turn driving directions between your current location and your destination. With GPS, you can also look up and navigate to nearby restaurants, hotels, movie theaters, gas stations, museums and other points of interest.To receive GPS radio signals, your GPS Navigation software must be launched and you must have a map downloaded onto your HP iPAQ or memory card. You can select one free map to download from a list of cities in the United States, Canada, and Western Europe. Instructions for downloading are included in the “Downloading a Map” section.HPConfidential

Using GPS NavigationUser’s Guide 8–312/16/04Downloading a MapImportant: A good policy to follow is to download all GPS maps to an SD memory card or to iPAQ File Store folder for safekeeping. This will prevent you from losing your map from possible power losses to the device, or from loss of software should it be necessary to perform a hard reset on the HP iPAQ.You can download one free city map anywhere in the United States, Canada or Western Europe.Note: Be sure to select your city carefully because you are allowed to download only one map free-of-charge. To download map upgrades or additional maps to your HP iPAQ, go to http://www.tomtom.com/gpsnavigation. A real-time traffic service is also available on a subscription basis.Important: It is highly recommended that you cradle your HP iPAQ to download the map. When the HP iPAQ uses the connected cradle, it uses the computer’s internet connectivity to download the map. Although it is possible to download a map through a GPRS connection, using a cradled connection to your personal computer is strongly recommended since map files are quite large and could be corrupted if the GPRS connection is lost during the download process. If you do not use a cradle connection, HP iPAQ sets up a GPRS internet connection which can be slow at times.Important: Depending on your configuration, your personal computer may access the Internet through a proxy server. Before proceeding, make sure that your personal computer can access the Internet. Then, launch the browser on your personal computer, and click Tools > Internet Options > Connections > LAN Settings.

User’s Guide 12–112Using Inbox and MessagingNote: To access Inbox Help on your device, from the Start menu, tap Help > Messaging.Using InboxYou can receive Internet e-mail, text messages, or Multimedia Message Service (MMS) messages in Inbox. Internet e-mail messages are sent by using an address you receive from your Internet service provider (ISP) or your employer. Text messages are only sent and received through your wireless phone service provider by using a phone number as the message address. MMS messages are sent and received through your wireless phone service provider by using a phone number or e-mail address as the message address.You can send and receive e-mail by synchronizing your HP iPAQ with your personal computer, or by connecting to a Post Office Protocol 3 (POP3) or Internet Message Access Protocol 4 (IMAP4) mail server. You need to set up an e-mail account for each method that you use except for Microsoft ActiveSync, which is set up by default. The ActiveSync folder on your HP iPAQ stores messages that you send and receive through synchronization with a personal computer. Account names appear as folders in the folder list (located on the left, under the navigation bar) in the Inbox message list.With synchronization, messages are synchronized between the device Inbox and the personal computer Inbox by using ActiveSync and Microsoft Exchange or Microsoft Outlook. HPConfidential
12–2 User’s GuideUsing Inbox and MessagingSynchronizing InboxAfter selecting Inbox for synchronization in ActiveSync, e-mail messages are synchronized as part of the general synchronization process. During synchronization:❏Messages are copied from the Inbox folder on your personal computer or the Microsoft Exchange server to the Inbox folder on your device. By default, you will receive messages from the last three days only, the first 100 lines of each new message, and file attachments of less than 100 KB in size.Note: You can only synchronize information directly with an Exchange Server if your company is running Microsoft Mobile Information Server 2002 or later.Note: You can synchronize information over the air if your company is running Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 or later.❏Messages in the Outbox folder on your device are transferred to Exchange or Outlook and then sent from those programs.❏The messages on the two computers are linked. When you delete a message on your device, it’s deleted from your personal computer the next time you synchronize.❏Messages in subfolders in other e-mail folders in Outlook are synchronized only if they have been selected for synchronization in ActiveSync.❏John Brandewie will provide a sentence on syncing over the air using Exchange Server 2003 featuresFor information on initiating Inbox synchronization or changing synchronization settings, see ActiveSync Help on your personal computer.Note: MMS messages are not received through synchronization. Instead, they are sent to your HP iPAQ via your service provider.HPConfidential
Using Inbox and MessagingUser’s Guide 12–3Using FoldersEach e-mail account, text message account, and MMS account has its own folder hierarchy with five default folders: Inbox, Outbox, Deleted Items, Drafts, and Sent Items. The messages you receive and send through the mail account are stored in these folders. You can also create additional folders within each hierarchy. The Deleted Items folder contains messages that have been deleted on the device. The behavior of the Deleted Items and Sent Items folders depends on the Inbox options you have chosen.The behavior of the folders you create depends on whether you are using ActiveSync, MMS, text messages, POP3, or IMAP4.If you use ActiveSync, e-mail messages in the Inbox folder in Outlook will automatically be synchronized with your device. You can select to synchronize additional folders by designating them for ActiveSync; however, when you synchronize over the air using Exchange ActiveSync, only Calendar, Contacts, and E-mail folders will synchronize. The folders you create and the messages you move will then be mirrored on the server. For example, if you move two messages from the Inbox folder to a folder named Family, and you have designated Family for synchronization, the server creates a copy of the Family folder and copies the messages into that folder. You can then read the messages while away from your personal computer.If you use MMS or text messages, messages are stored in the Inbox folder.If you use POP3 and you move e-mail messages to a folder you created, the link is broken between the messages on the device and their copies on the mail server. The next time you connect, the mail server will see that the messages are missing from the device Inbox and delete them from the server. This prevents you from having duplicate copies of a message, but it also means that you will no longer have access to messages that you move to folders created from anywhere except the device.HPConfidential
12–4 User’s GuideUsing Inbox and MessagingIf you use IMAP4, the folders you create and the e-mail messages you move are mirrored on the server. Therefore, messages are available to you anytime you connect to your mail server, whether it is from your HP iPAQ or personal computer.

Revised: 12/16/04User’s Guide 14–114Using Security FeaturesThe widespread use of Pocket PC devices has significantly increased employee productivity. However, non-secured or inadequately secured Pocket PC devices are creating network security issues for the corporate workplace when they connect to a secure network.Valuable information is bypassing network security and being stored on inadequately secured Pocket PC devices. The HP ProtectTools security features provide on-device security protection so there is less risk of losing sensitive information on your HP iPAQ.Using HP ProtectToolsHP ProtectTools helps protect your HP iPAQ by providing authentication and encryption of e-mail, calendar, contacts, notes, tasks, and/or all files stored in the My Documents folder. It can also be used to encrypt data stored on expansion cards.When you enable HP ProtectTools, you have the option of entering a PIN and/or password to access the HP iPAQ. If you forget your PIN or password, you can access the device with a backup question and answer or contact your administrator to manually authenticate. Note: HP ProtectTools does not replace or interact with the security on your mobile phone’s SIM card. While you can use the same PIN and/or password for both HP ProtectTools and your SIM card, it is recommended, for maximum security, that you use different PINs and/or passwords.HPConfidential
User’s Guide 14–2Using Security FeaturesÄCAUTION: HP ProtectTools helps protect your HP iPAQ and the data stored on it. If you are unable to access your device with any of the above methods, there is no way to unlock your device. You have to restore your device to factory settings, resulting in the loss of all data on your HP iPAQ, including data stored in iPAQ File Store. It is recommended that you remember your PIN/password and question/answer.If you are unable to access your device, you will still be able to use your mobile phone to make and receive calls, and data stored on your SIM card will not be lost. However, you will not be able to access other applications (such as Contactsm, Tasks, or Notes) from the phone application until you unlock your device.Setting Up SecurityYou should only need to set up security one time.

However, your HP wireless phone has been designed so that it does not exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency energy that are set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government. 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 both the United States and international standards:This equipment under test has been shown to be capable of compliance for localized Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) for uncontrolled environment/general population exposure limits specified in ANSI/IEEE Standard C95.1-1992 and had been tested in accordance with measurement procedures specified in FCC/OET Bulletin 65 Supplement C (2001) and IEEE Standard 1528-200X (Draft 6.5, January 2002). 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 measure known as the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg.NOTE: In the U.S. and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue.
