CN2B Mobile Computer User’s Manual 11IntroductionThis chapter introduces the CN2B Mobile Computer, developed by Inter-mec Technologies Corporation to enhance wireless connectivity needs.This chapter contains hardware and software configuration information to assist you in making the most out of your CN2B Computer, including: • Audio System (page 2) • Battery (page 3)• Beeper (page 8)• Intermec Settings Applet (page 9)• Key Sequences (page 9)• LEDs (page 12)• PSM Build Version (page 12)• Resetting Your CN2B Computer (page 13)• Software Build Version (page 14)• Software Tools (page 14)• Storage Media (page 15)• Wireless Network Support (page 15)Note: Desktop icons and applet icons are shown to the left.

Chapter 1 — Introduction2 CN2B Mobile Computer User’s ManualAudio SystemThe audio system consists of a full range speaker, an internal microphone, and an external headset jack.SpeakerA speaker capable of variable volume levels is located on the back of the computer. This speaker has a transducer maximum volume of 85 dB at 10 cm, a frequency range of 1 to 8KHz, and a separate volume control.MicrophoneThe built-in microphone is located on the front, left corner of the unit to the left of the keypad.Warning: Do not place the speaker next to your ear when the speaker volume is set to “Loud” (maximum), or you may damage your hearing.Speaker+-A2 A3 A4PgUp *PgDn791346825A1/AlphaABCCAPSGHI JKLDEFMNOPQRS TUV WXYZ0ActionEsc.BkSpENTER@Microphone

Chapter 1 — IntroductionCN2B Mobile Computer User’s Manual 3External Headset JackThe external headset jack connects a mobile phone style headset to your mobile computer for use in noisy environments. The jack is a 2.5 mm, three-conductor jack, with autosensing of the headset jack insertion which disables the internal speaker and microphone. The external headset jack is located on the top of the mobile computer next to the scanner.BatteryIf your computer shuts down because of low battery conditions, your com-puter does not operate. This is done to ensure that data is protected. Although the battery does protect the data against loss for several hours, you should connect your computer to a power source when you first detect a low battery condition.Your computer contains an internal supercapacitor, a temporary power storage device, that protects data for up to ten minutes. This is to give you time to replace the main battery pack before that data is lost. Be sure to put the computer in a suspend mode before doing so.The CN2B Computer comes with an 8.64 Watt-hour, 3.7V, 2150maH, replaceable LiIon battery. To view the status of this battery, tap Start > Set-tings > the System tab > the Power icon > the Power tab to view the cur-rent status of both the main battery and the backup battery. Tap ok to exit.Headset Jack

Chapter 1 — Introduction4 CN2B Mobile Computer User’s ManualIf you have at least one device in your CN2B Computer (radio, scanner, or imager), the battery power fail level is set so that after the system shuts down in a low battery condition, there is still sufficient charge to allow the unit to remain configured, keep proper time, and maintain DRAM (Dynamic Random Access Memory) for at least 23 to 32 hours at room temperature if the main battery remains in the mobile computer. The configuration and time are lost if:• The battery discharges beyond this level.• The battery is removed when the computer is not in suspend mode.• A cold reset is performed on the computer. The lithium-ion battery pack that is used in this device may present a fire or chemical burn hazard if it is mistreated. Do not disassemble it, heat it above 100°C (212°F), or incinerate it.Removing the main battery when the backup battery low or critically low icon appears on the status bar may cause your CN2B to cold boot and you may lose data.If you fail to replace the battery immediately, you may lose important data or applications.You can modify RAM maintenance in a limited way. On the CN2B Com-puter, tap Start > Settings > the System tab > the Power icon > the Battery tab. Drag the top slider bar to the right to change the suspend voltage to favor suspend time over rundown time, then click ok to exit.

Chapter 2 — Windows Mobile 2003CN2B Mobile Computer User’s Manual 55To synchronize your notes through notes synchronization, first select the Notes information type for synchronization in ActiveSync. The next time you synchronize, all notes in My Documents and its subfolder on your device appear in Outlook Notes on your desktop. Notes that contain only text appear as regular notes in Outlook on your desktop, while notes con-taining written text or drawings appear in the device format. In addition, all notes in the Notes group in Outlook on the desktop appear in Notes on the device.To synchronize your notes as files, in ActiveSync, select the Files informa-tion type for synchronization and clear the Notes information type. When you select Files, the My Documents folder for the CN2B Computer is cre-ated on your desktop. All .PWI files placed in the My Documents folder on your device and all .DOC files placed in the My Documents folder for the CN2B Computer on your desktop are synchronized. Password-protected files cannot be synchronized.ActiveSync converts documents during synchronization. For information on synchronization or file conversion, see ActiveSync Help on the desktop.Inbox: Sending and Receiving E-mail MessagesYou can receive Internet e-mail messages and SMS messages in Inbox. Internet e-mail messages are sent by using an address you receive from your Internet service provider (ISP) or your employer. SMS messages are sent and received through your wireless phone service provider by using a phone number as the message address.You can send and receive e-mail by synchronizing with your desktop, 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 CN2B Computer stores mes-sages that you send and receive through synchronization with a desktop. 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 PC Inbox by using ActiveSync and Microsoft Exchange or Microsoft Outlook. For more information, see “Synchronizing E-mail Messages” on page 56.Note: When you delete or change an item on either your desktop or CN2B Computer, the item is changed or deleted in the other location the next time you synchronize.Note: If you synchronize your notes using file synchronization and then later decide to use notes synchronization, all of your notes are synchronized with Outlook on your desktop and no longer store in the My Documents folder for the CN2B Computer.To switch to Inbox on your CN2B Computer, tap Start > Inbox.

Chapter 2 — Windows Mobile 200356 CN2B Mobile Computer User’s ManualSynchronizing E-mail MessagesAfter 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 desktop or the Microsoft Exchange server to the Inbox folder on your CN2B Com-puter. (Note that you can only synchronize information directly with an Exchange Server if your company is running Microsoft Mobile Informa-tion Server 2002 or later.) By default, you receive messages from the last three days only, the first 100 lines of each new message, and file attach-ments of less than 100 KB in size.• 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 mes-sage on your CN2B Computer, it is deleted from your desktop the next time you synchronize.• Messages in subfolders in other e-mail folders in Outlook are synchro-nized only if they were selected for synchronization in ActiveSync.For information on initiating Inbox synchronization or changing synchro-nization settings, see ActiveSync Help on your desktop or select Start > Help > Connections to see Connections Help.Managing E-mail Messages and FoldersEach e-mail account and SMS 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 were 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, SMS, POP3, or IMAP4.•If you use ActiveSync, e-mail messages in the Inbox folder in Outlook automatically synchro-nize with your device. You can select to synchronize additional folders by designating them for ActiveSync. The folders you create and the mes-sages you move are then 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 desktop.•If you use SMS, messages are stored in the Inbox folder.

Chapter 2 — Windows Mobile 2003CN2B Mobile Computer User’s Manual 57•If you use POP3and 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 sees that the messages are missing from the device Inbox and deletes them from the server. This prevents you from having duplicate copies of a message, but it also means that you no longer have access to messages that you move to fold-ers created from anywhere except the CN2B Computer.•If you use IMAP4,the folders created and the e-mail messages moved are mirrored on the server. Thus, messages are available to you anytime you connect to your mail server, whether it is from your CN2B Computer or desktop. This synchronization of folders occurs whenever you connect to your mail server, create new folders, or rename or delete folders when connected.For all accounts except ActiveSync, you can access folder options by tap-ping To o l s > Manage Folders.Connecting to a Mail ServerIn addition to synchronizing e-mail messages with your desktop, you can send and receive e-mail messages by connecting to an e-mail server using a network card connected to your CN2B Computer. You need to set up a remote connection to a network or an ISP, and a connection to your e-mail server. For more information, see “Remote Access (Modems)” on page 101.When you connect to the e-mail server, new messages are downloaded to the CN2B Computer Inbox folder, messages in the CN2B Computer Out-box folder are sent, and messages that were deleted on the e-mail server are removed from the CN2B Computer Inbox folder.Messages that you receive directly from an e-mail server are linked to your e-mail server rather than your desktop. When you delete a message on your CN2B Computer, it is also deleted from the e-mail server the next time you connect based on the settings selected in ActiveSync.You can work online or offline. When working online, you read and respond to messages while connected to the e-mail server. Messages are sent as soon as you tap Send, which saves space on your CN2B Computer.When working offline, once you have downloaded new message headers or partial messages, you can disconnect from the e-mail server and then decide which messages to download completely. The next time you connect, Inbox downloads the complete messages you have marked for retrieval and sends the messages you have composed.
