Tap the Unit Information icon, then tap the Battery Status tab to view the current status. Tap ok to exit this information. Low Battery Shutdown If your computer shuts down because of low battery conditions, your computer will not operate. This is done to ensure that data is protected. Although the battery will 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 super capacitor, 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 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 72 hours at room temperature if the main battery remains in the mobile computer. The configuration and time are lost if: S The battery discharges beyond this level. S The battery is removed when the computer is not in suspend mode. S A cold reset is performed on the computer. 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual Chapter 1 — Introduction System Status Maintained System status is maintained in “suspend” when the main battery is removed: S 10 minutes for 64 MB low-power chips S 5 minutes for 128 MB low-power chips CAB Files Within 700C Software Tools CD If you leave the default destination while you install the “\700 Color Mgmt Tools” directory onto your desktop PC, then “C:\Intermec\Intermec 700 Color Mgmt Tools\Cab Files” will be the default directory.

S Send and receive e-mail messages by connecting directly to an e-mail server through an Internet Service Provider (ISP) or a network. Synchronizing E-mail Messages E-mail messages can be synchronized as part of the general synchronization process. You will need to enable Inbox synchronization in ActiveSync. For information on enabling Inbox synchronization, see ActiveSync Help on the desktop computer. During synchronization: S Messages are copied from the mail folders of Exchange or Outlook on your desktop computer to the ActiveSync folder in Inbox on your 700 Series Computer. By default, you will receive messages from the past three days only, the first 100 lines of each message, and file attachments of less than 100 KB in size. S E-mail messages in the Outbox folder on your 700 Series Computer are transferred to Exchange or Outlook, and then sent from those programs. S E-mail messages in subfolders must be selected in ActiveSync on your desktop computer in order to be transferred. Connecting Directly to an E-mail Server In addition to synchronizing e-mail messages with your desktop computer, you can send and receive e-mail messages by connecting to an e-mail server using a modem or network card connected to your 700 Series Computer. You will 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 “Getting Connected” on page 67. When you connect to the e-mail server, new messages are downloaded to the 700 Series Computer Inbox folder, messages in the 700 Series Computer Outbox folder are sent, and messages that have been deleted on the e-mail server are removed from the 700 Series Computer Inbox folder. Messages that you receive directly from an e-mail server are linked to your e-mail server rather than your desktop computer. When you delete a message on your 700 Series 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 700 Series 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. 42 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual Chapter 2 — Pocket PC 2002 Using the Message List Messages you receive are displayed in the message list. By default, the most recently received messages are displayed first in the list. 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual 43 Chapter 2 — Pocket PC 2002 When you receive a message, tap it to open it. Unread messages are displayed in bold. When you connect to your e-mail server or synchronize with your desktop computer, by default, you will receive messages from the last five days only, the first 100 lines of each new message, and file attachments of less than 100 KB in size.

If you are working offline, the message is moved to the Outbox folder and will be sent the next time you connect. If you are sending an SMS message and want to know if it was received, tap Edit → Options → Request SMS text message delivery notification before sending the message. 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual 45 Chapter 2 — Pocket PC 2002 Managing E-mail Messages and Folders By default, messages are displayed in one of five folders for each service you have created: Inbox, Deleted Items, Drafts, Outbox, and Sent Items. The Deleted Items folder contains messages that have been deleted on the 700 Series Computer. The behavior of the Deleted and Sent Items folders depends on the options you have chosen. In the message list, tap Tools → Options → the Message tab, then select your options. If you want to organize messages into additional folders, tap Tools → Manage Folders to create new folders. To move a message to another folder, in the message list, tap and hold the message and then tap Move to on the pop-up menu. Folder Behavior With a Direct Connection to an E-mail Server The behavior of the folders you create depends on whether you are using ActiveSync, SMS, POP3, or IMAP4. S If you use ActiveSync: E-mail messages in the Inbox folder in Outlook will automatically be synchronized with your 700 Series Computer. You can select to synchronize additional folders by designating them for ActiveSync. 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 desktop computer. S If you use SMS: Messages are stored in the Inbox folder. S If you use POP3: and you move e-mail messages to a folder you created, the link is broken between the messages on the 700 Series Computer and their copies on the mail server. The next time you connect, the mail server will see that the messages are missing from the 700 Series Computer 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 700 Series Computer. S If 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 700 Series Computer or desktop computer.
