If your computer shuts down because of low battery conditions, your com-

puter does not operate. This is done to ensure that data is protected. Al-

though 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 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.

If you have at least one device in your 700 Series Computer (radio, scan-

ner, imager, or Ethernet), 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:

SThe battery discharges beyond this level.

SThe battery is removed when the computer is not in suspend mode.

SA cold reset is performed on the computer.

You can modify RAM maintenance in a limited way. On the 700 Color

Computer, tap Start >Settings >theSystem tab>thePower icon > the

Battery tab. Drag the slider bar to the right to change the suspend voltage

to favor suspend time over rundown time, then click ok to exit.

Tips for getting good recognition:

SWrite neatly.

SWrite on the lines and draw descenders below the line. Write the cross

of the “t” and apostrophes below the top line so they are not confused

with the word above. Write periods and commas above the baseline.

SFor better recognition, try increasing the zoom level to 300% by using

the Tools menu. Recognition does not work well below a 150% zoom

level.

SWrite the letters of a word closely and leave big gaps between words so

that the 700 Color Computer can easily tell where words begin and end.

SHyphenated words, foreign words that use special characters such as ac-

cents, and some punctuation cannot be converted.

SIf you add writing to a word to change it (such as changing a “3” to an

“8”) after you attempt to recognize the word, the writing you add is not

included if you attempt to recognize the writing again.

Microsoft ActiveSync

Visit the following Microsoft Web site for the latest in updates, technical

information, and samples:

http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/resources/communities/de-

fault.mspx

Using Microsoft ActiveSync, you can synchronize the information on your

desktop with the information on your 700 Color Computer. Synchroniza-

tion compares the data on your 700 Color Computer with your desktop

and updates both computers with the most recent information. For exam-

ple:

SKeep Pocket Outlook data up-to-date by synchronizing your 700 Color

Computer with Microsoft Outlook data on your desktop.

SSynchronize Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel files between your

700 Color Computer and desktop. Your files are automatically con-

verted to the correct format

Note: By default, ActiveSync does not automatically synchronize all types

of information. Use ActiveSync options to turn synchronization on and off

for specific information types.

With ActiveSync, you can also:

SBack up and restore your 700 Color Computer data.

SCopy (rather than synchronize) files between your 700 Color Computer

and desktop.

SControl when synchronization occurs by selecting a synchronization

mode. For example, you can synchronize continually while connected to

your desktop or only when you choose the synchronize command.

SSelect which information types are synchronized and control how much

data is synchronized. For example, you can choose how many weeks of

past appointments you want synchronized.

Before you begin synchronization, install ActiveSync on your desktop from

the Windows Mobile Companion CD. For more information on installing

ActiveSync, see your Quick Start card. ActiveSync is already installed on

your 700 Color Computer.

After installation is complete, the ActiveSync Setup Wizard helps you con-

nect your 700 Color Computer to your desktop, set up a partnership so

you can synchronize information between your 700 Color Computer and

your desktop, and customize your synchronization settings. Your first syn-

chronization process automatically begins when finished using the wizard.

After your first synchronization, look at Calendar, Contacts, and Tasks on

your 700 Color Computer. Notice that information you have stored in

Microsoft Outlook on your desktop was copied to your 700 Color Com-

puter, and you did not have to type a word. Disconnect the 700 Color

Computer from your computer and you are ready to go!

Synchronizing Notes

Notes can be synchronized between your desktop and device either

through notes synchronization or file synchronization. Notes synchroniza-

tion synchronizes the notes on your 700 Color Computer with Outlook

Notes on your desktop. File synchronization synchronizes all notes on

your 700 Color Computer with the My Documents folder for the 700

Color Computer on your desktop.

To 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 700 Color Computer is

created on your desktop. All .PWI files placed in the My Documents fold-

er on your device and all .DOC files placed in the My Documents folder

forthe700ColorComputeronyourdesktoparesynchronized.Password-

Inbox: Sending and Receiving E-mail Messages

To switch to Inbox on your 700 Color Computer, tap Start >Inbox.

You can receive Internet e-mail messages and SMS messages in Inbox. In-

ternet 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 Ac-

cess 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 700 Color Computer stores

messages that you send and receive through synchronization with a desk-

top. 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 In-

box and the PC Inbox by using ActiveSync and Microsoft Exchange or

Microsoft Outlook. For more information, see “Synchronizing E-mail Mes-

sages”below.

When connecting to a POP3 or IMAP4 server, you use a modem to con-

nect to your Internet service provider (ISP), or a modem or Ethernet card

to connect to the local area network to which your e-mail server is connec-

ted. You can also use your phone to connect by using a cellular line con-

nection. For more information, see “Connecting to a Mail Server”onpage

75.

Synchronizing E-mail Messages

After selecting Inbox for synchronization in ActiveSync, e-mail messages

are synchronized as part of the general synchronization process. During

synchronization:

SMessages are copied from the Inbox folder on your desktop or the

Microsoft Exchange server to the Inbox folder on your 700 Color Com-

puter. (Note that you can only synchronize information directly with an

Exchange Server if your company is running Microsoft Mobile Infor-

mation 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 at-

tachments of less than 100 KB in size.

SMessages in the Outbox folder on your device are transferred to Ex-

change or Outlook and then sent from those programs.

SThe messages on the two computers are linked. When you delete a mes-

sage on your 700 Color Computer, it is deleted from your desktop the

next time you synchronize.

SMessages 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.

Windows Mobile 2003Chapter —2

74 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual

Managing E-mail Messages and Folders

Each 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 de-

vice. 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.

SIf 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

messages 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.

SIf you use SMS,

messages are stored in the Inbox folder.

SIf 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 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 700 Color Computer.

SIf 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 con-

nect to your mail server, whether it is from your 700 Color Computer

or desktop. This synchronization of folders occurs whenever you con-

nect 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 Tools >Manage Folders.

Windows Mobile 2003—Chapter 2

75700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual

Connecting to a Mail Server

In 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

modem or network card connected to your 700 Color Computer. You

need to set up a remote connection to a network or an ISP, and a connec-

tion to your e-mail server. For more information, see “Getting Connected”

on page 98.

When you connect to the e-mail server, new messages are downloaded to

the 700 Color Computer Inbox folder, messages in the 700 Color Com-

puter Outbox folder are sent, and messages that were deleted on the e-mail

server are removed from the 700 Color 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 700 Color 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 re-

spond to messages while connected to the e-mail server. Messages are sent

as soon as you tap Send, which saves space on your 700 Color Computer.

When working offline, once you have downloaded new message headers or

partial messages, you can disconnect from the e-mail server and then de-

cide 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.

Installing Applications

There are multiple ways to get an application to your 700 Series Color

Mobile Computer; just as there are multiple ways to package the applica-

tion for delivery.

Installing ApplicationsChapter —3

118 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual

Packaging an Application

Use any of these methods to package an application for installation:

SFor very simple applications, the application itself might be the only file

that needs to be delivered.

SIt could be a directory structure that contains the application, support-

ing files like ActiveX controls, DLLs, images, sound files, and data files.

SOr, you could package an application via a CAB file.

Consider any of the following when choosing a location into which to

store your application:

SIn the basic 700 Color Computer, there are two built-in storage op-

tions: the Object Store and the Persistent Storage Manager (PSM). The

Object Store is RAM that looks like a disk. Anything copied here is de-

leted when a cold-boot is performed on the 700 Color Computer. The

PSM is an area of storage which is embedded in a section of the system’s

FLASH memory. This storage area is not erased during a cold-boot. It

may, however, be erased during the reflashing process. In addition to

storing applications and data files, you do have the option to store a per-

sistent registry to the PSM region.

SIf the optional Secure Digital or CompactFlash storage card is in the

system, then consider this card the primary location for placing an ap-

plications install files. The following folders represent either card:

SThe Secure Digital storage card creates the “\SDMMC Disk” folder.

SThe CompactFlash storage card creates the “\Storage Card” folder.

Note: The 730 Mobile Computer does not support the Compact

Flash storage card.

SUse the small non-volatile Flash File Store region to hold CAB files that

rebuild the system at cold-boot or install applications from a CAB file

into the Flash File Store so they are ”ready-to-run” when a cold-boot is

performed. Since the FLASH in the system has a limited number of

write cycles, do not use the Flash File Store for excessive writing pur-

poses; however, reading is okay.

Files copied to any of these locations are safe when a cold-boot is

performed on a 700 Color Computer — providing the AutoRun system is

installed in the appropriate location You can find this system in the 700

Color Management Tools portion of the Intermec Developer’s Library CD.

Copying a CAB file to the “\CABFILES” folder on one of these cards

automatically extracts that CAB file on every cold-boot to ensure that your

system is properly set up (see page 124).

Installing Applications—Chapter 3

119700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual

Installing Applications

Consider any of the following options to get the package to the preferred

location on your 700 Series Computer.

SMicrosoft ActiveSync

SFTP Server (page 120)

Using Microsoft ActiveSync

Note: These instructions assume the 700 Color Management Tools por-

tion of the Intermec Developer’s Library CD was installed on your desktop.

The Microsoft ActiveSync tool is located on the 700 Color Companion CD.

See Chapter 2, “Windows Mobile 2003,” for information about this tool as

provided by Microsoft Corporation.

This can be a serial, USB, Ethernet, InfraRed, or 802.11b ActiveSync con-

nection. Files can be copied using File Explorer on a desktop or a laptop

computer. This is usually good when updating few 700 Color Computers.

Note: The 730 Computer does not support Ethernet.

to activate their utilities.

Using the FTP Server

The 700 Color Computer has a built-in FTP Server that connects to a net-

work via Ethernet, 802.11b, or WAN (Wireless Access Network). This

allows connections to the 700 Color Computer to perform file transfers or

computer management functions. Another benefit is you can create FTP

scripts to automate the process of copying files to the 700 Color Comput-

er. This option is good for when a large number of 700 Color Computers

need updating. See Chapter 7, “Programming,” for more information.

Migrating from a 700 Monochrome Computer

As you migrate from a 700 Monochrome Computer to a 700 Color Com-

puter, you need to consider the following: When converting a 700 Mono-

chrome Computer application to run on the 700 Color Computer, most

APIs should work without changes. Below are a few exceptions:

SThe 700 Monochrome Computer uses the “\Storage Card” folder for

nonvolatile storage. You may need to change the application to store

data onto the “SDMMC Disk” folder instead of the “\Storage Card”

folder if a Secure Digital storage card is present in the system.

SIf the application uses the RegFlushKey() API, it must first verify that

the proper media is available in the system and call the special API men-

tioned in Step 7 on the previous page.

SIf the application is using the 700 Color switchable dock, use the

IOCTL_DOCK_SWITCH value from the

IOCTL_HAL_ITC_WRITE_SYSPARM function to set the proper

port on the dock before communications. See more information about

this KernelIOControl function in Chapter 7, “Programming.”

SSome WAN radio options have changed. Review the WAN radio infor-

mation in Chapter 4, “Network Support,“to determine if any changes are

required in your application.

SArrow and tab keys are reversed from the 700 Monochrome Computer.

Keyboard remapping is available on the 700 Color Computer should

you need to map these keys like that of the 700 Monochrome Comput-

er (see page 121).

SSpecial SDKs are not needed to compile applications for the Xscale pro-

cessor. Targeting the SA1110 processor creates applications that run on

the 700 Color Computer.

Cabinet File Installation

CAB files (short form of “cabinet” files) are compressed folders as defined by

Microsoft. A “cabinet” file is a single file, usually suffixed with .CAB, that

stores compressed files in a file library. A compressed file can be spread

over several cabinet files. During installation, the setup application decom-

presses the files stored in a cabinet and copies them to the user’s system.

For the 700 Color Computer, CAB files register DLLs, create shortcuts,

modify registry entries, and run custom setup programs. Tap a CAB file to

extract that file or place the CAB file on one of the approved storage de-

vices in the “\CabFiles” folder, then perform a warm-boot on the 700 Col-

or Computer. There are two methods available to extract a CAB file:

STap a CAB file to extract it. With this method, the CAB file is automat-

ically deleted when the extraction process is successful, unless the CAB

file is set with the read-only attribute.

SUse the AUTOCAB method to extract all files when a cold-boot is per-

formed on the 700 Color Computer. This method is on the Intermec

Developer’s Library CD,seeitsSoftware Tools User’s Manual for informa-

tion.

CDMA Radio Set Up

Note: Set up and provision information is also available in the 700 Color

CDMA Radio Setup Quick Start Guide P/N: 962-054-063.

This tells you how to set up your CDMA radio in your 760 Computer.

Below are terms to familiarize you with CDMA radio technology:

Activation The process of programming the radio with the lock code (MSL) and phone number (MIN) to

allow it to communicate on the provider’s network. Once activation is complete you can make

voice calls (if enabled by the carrier) with the mobile computer.

Data Provisioning The process of activating the ability for the CDMA radio to establish data connections, such as

connecting to the Internet. The CDMA radio makes data connection only after it is activated

and data provisioned.

NID (Network ID) A numeric value programmed into the CDMA radio at the factory or during the activation

process. Your carrier may or may not use this value, but your carrier may provide this for ac-

tivation purposes.

SID (System ID) A numeric value programmed into the CDMA radio at the factory or during the activation

process. This number is used by your carrier to determine if the radio belongs to its CDMA

network. Your carrier may provide this number for activation purposes.

Note: Descriptions in this chapter are for Sprint PCS, Bell Mobility, Te-

lus, and Verizon Networks versions of the SB555 Watcher program. Oth-

er carriers may be added pending regulatory and carrier approval.

Activation

Note: Set the date and time before doing this activation.

SB555 Watcher is for activation and data provisioning. Once you enable

voice capability, data capability, or both depending on the carrier, remove

this program from the system by cold-booting your computer.

Intermec Technologies does not recommend using the SB555 Watcher

program to make data and voice calls on a daily basis for these reasons:

SThe SB555 Watcher application is a third-party application unaware of

certain power management methods used in your 760 Computer.

Therefore, the application consumes more power than necessary.

SThe application size consumes memory better used for your application

data.

The process of setting up the account with your carrier and enabling the

CDMA WAN radio in your 760 Computer is called activation.

The CDMA radio is pre-programmed for a specific carrier, such as Sprint,

Telus, Bell Mobility, Verizon, etc.). Therefore, information about your

radio should already be in your carrier’s database.

You need to notify the carrier and set up mobile accounts for each unit

you are activating. The Electronic Serial Number (ESN hex 63xxxxxx)

that you need to supply to your carrier is located in two places:

SOn the outside of the 760 Computer shipping box.

SOn the inside of the 760 Computer battery compartment.

The ESN comes in both decimal and hexadecimal formats. Most carriers

accept either format, but with a preference for the decimal format. You

only need to provide one number to your carrier.

SThe decimal format consists of 11 digits, beginning with “099.”

SThe hexadecimal format is an 8-digit number, beginning with “63.”

Accounts for Verizon and Sprint carriers can be set up for data only. Cana-

dian carriers (Telus and Bell Mobility) can be set for data only, voice only,

or both voice and data. This is determined by your application and the

services your carrier offers.

After the all ESNs are provided to the carrier and the carrier has estab-

lished the accounts, you will be provided with the lock codes and tele-

phone numbers needed to complete the activation process. You use the

SB555 Watcher program to accomplish this task. Be sure to write down this

information for future use.

Note: Ensure that you receive a spreadsheet with your order that calls out

all ESNs in both decimal and hexadecimal formats.
