IntroductionChapter —12 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s ManualAB10 BatteryThe 700 Color Computer comes with a 14.4 Watt-hour, 7.2V,replaceable Lithium-Ion (LiIon) battery.The 730 Computer comes with an 8.8 Watt-hour, 3.7V, replaceable LiIonbattery.To view the status of the battery, tap Start >Settings >theSystem tab >the Power icon > the Power tab to view the current status of both themain AB10 battery and the backup battery. Tap ok to exit thisinformation.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, youshould connect your computer to a power source when you first detect alow battery condition.Note: The 700 Color Computer has an internal backup super capacitorwhich retains data for an average of ten minutes after the battery is re-moved. It also shuts down the 700 Color Computer if the main batterysuddenly goes away (removed from the computer). Depending upon theprocesses running, it may not have adequate power for a graceful shutdown. If so, the 700 Color performs a cold-boot the next time power isapplied.Note: The 730 I-Safe Computer performs a cold-boot every time its mainbattery is removed if it was not put in suspend mode prior to the removal.In short, put the 700 Color Computer into a suspend (sleep) mode be-fore you remove the main battery.
Introduction—Chapter 13700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s ManualIf you have at least one device in your 700 Color Computer (radio, scan-ner, imager, or Ethernet), the battery power fail level is set so that after thesystem shuts down in a low battery condition, there is still sufficient chargeto allow the unit to remain configured, keep proper time, and maintainDRAM (Dynamic Random Access Memory) for at least 23 to 32 hours atroom 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-boot (reset) is performed on the computer.You can modify RAM maintenance in a limited way.

Notes synchroniza-tion synchronizes the notes on your 700 Color Computer with OutlookNotes on your desktop. File synchronization synchronizes all notes onyour 700 Color Computer with the My Documents folder for the 700Color Computer on your desktop.To synchronize your notes through notes synchronization, first select theNotes information type for synchronization in ActiveSync. The next timeyou synchronize, all notes in My Documents and its subfolder on yourdevice appear in Outlook Notes on your desktop. Notes that contain onlytext 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 onthe device.To synchronize your notes as files, in ActiveSync, select the Files informa-tion type for synchronization and clear the Notes information type.

In-ternet e-mail messages are sent by using an address you receive from yourInternet service provider (ISP) or your employer. SMS messages are sentand received through your wireless phone service provider by using aphone number as the message address.You can send and receive e-mail by synchronizing with your desktop, orby 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 accountfor each method that you use except for Microsoft ActiveSync, which is setup by default. The ActiveSync folder on your 700 Color Computer storesmessages 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.
Windows Mobile 2003Chapter —264 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s ManualWith synchronization, messages are synchronized between the device In-box and the PC Inbox by using ActiveSync and Microsoft Exchange orMicrosoft Outlook. For more information, see “Synchronizing E-mailMessages” 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 cardto 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 information, see “Connecting to a Mail Server” on page 65.Synchronizing E-mail MessagesAfter selecting Inbox for synchronization in ActiveSync, e-mail messagesare synchronized as part of the general synchronization process. Duringsynchronization:SMessages are copied from the Inbox folder on your desktop or theMicrosoft Exchange server to the Inbox folder on your 700 Color Com-puter. (Note that you can only synchronize information directly with anExchange Server if your company is running Microsoft Mobile Infor-mation Server 2002 or later.) By default, you receive messages from thelast 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 thenext 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.Managing E-mail Messages and FoldersEach e-mail account and SMS account has its own folder hierarchy withfive default folders: Inbox, Outbox, Deleted Items, Drafts, and Sent Items.The messages you receive and send through the mail account are stored inthese 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 onthe Inbox options you have chosen.The behavior of the folders you create depends on whether you are usingActiveSync, 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 foldersby designating them for ActiveSync. The folders you create and themessages you move are then mirrored on the server. For example, if you
Windows Mobile 2003—Chapter 265700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manualmove two messages from the Inbox folder to a folder named Family,and you have designated Family for synchronization, the server creates acopy of the Family folder and copies the messages into that folder. Youcan then read the messages while away from your desktop.SIf you use SMS,messages are stored in the Inbox folder.SIf you use POP3and you move e-mail messages to a folder you created, the link is brokenbetween the messages on the device and their copies on the mail server.The next time you connect, the mail server sees that the messages aremissing from the device Inbox and deletes them from the server. Thisprevents you from having duplicate copies of a message, but it alsomeans 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 mirroredon the server. Therefore, messages are available to you anytime you con-nect to your mail server, whether it is from your 700 Color Computeror desktop. This synchronization of folders occurs whenever you con-nect to your mail server, create new folders, or rename or delete folderswhen connected.For all accounts except ActiveSync, you can access folder options by tap-ping Tools >Manage Folders.Connecting to a Mail ServerIn addition to synchronizing e-mail messages with your desktop, you cansend and receive e-mail messages by connecting to an e-mail server using amodem or network card connected to your 700 Color Computer. Youneed to set up a remote connection to a network or an ISP, and a connec-tion to your e-mail server.When you connect to the e-mail server, new messages are downloaded tothe 700 Color Computer Inbox folder, messages in the 700 Color Com-puter Outbox folder are sent, and messages that were deleted on the e-mailserver are removed from the 700 Color Computer Inbox folder.Messages that you receive directly from an e-mail server are linked to youre-mail server rather than your desktop. When you delete a message onyour 700 Color Computer, it is also deleted from the e-mail server thenext 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 sentas soon as you tap Send, which saves space on your 700 Color Computer.When working offline, once you have downloaded new message headers orpartial 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 andsends the messages you have composed.

Windows Mobile 2003Chapter —284 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual
85700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s ManualInstalling Applications3There are multiple ways to get an application to your 700 Series ColorMobile Computer; just as there are multiple ways to package the applica-tion for delivery.Note: “700 Color” pertains to 730, 740, 741, 750, 751, 760, and 761Computers unless otherwise noted.
Installing ApplicationsChapter —386 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s ManualPackaging an ApplicationUse any of these methods to package an application for installation:SFor very simple applications, the application itself might be the only filethat 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 tostore 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). TheObject 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. ThePSM is an area of storage which is embedded in a section of the system’sFLASH memory. This storage area is not erased during a cold-boot. Itmay, however, be erased during the reflashing process. In addition tostoring 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 thesystem, 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: 730 Computers do not support Compact Flash storage cards.Instead, the “\Storage Card” folder is created for the Secure Digitalstorage card.SUse the small non-volatile Flash File Store region to hold CAB files thatrebuild the system at cold-boot or install applications from a CAB fileinto the Flash File Store so they are “ready-to-run” when a cold-boot isperformed. Since the FLASH in the system has a limited number ofwrite 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 isperformed on a 700 Color Computer — providing the AutoRun system isinstalled in the appropriate location Find this system in the 700 ColorManagement Tools portion.Copying a CAB file to the “\CabFiles” folderon one of these cards automatically extracts that CAB file on everycold-boot to ensure that your system is properly set up (see page 95).
Installing Applications—Chapter 387700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s ManualInstalling ApplicationsConsider any of these options to get the package to the preferred location:SMicrosoft ActiveSync (next page)SStorage cards (page 88)SFTP Server (page 88)SRegistry (page 88)Using Microsoft ActiveSyncNote: These instructions assume the 700 Color Management Tools wereinstalled 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 toolas provided by Microsoft Corporation.This can be a serial or USB ActiveSync connection. Files can be copiedusing File Explorer on a desktop or a laptop computer. This is usuallygood when updating few 700 Color Computers.These instructions assume that Microsoft ActiveSync was installed ontoyour desktop and is up and running. If not, go to Chapter 2, “WindowsMobile 2003,” for an URL from which to download the latest application.1Connect your 700 Color Computer to your desktop computer via anActiveSync cable.2Wait for a “Connected” message to appear in the Microsoft ActiveSyncapplication to signal a connection to the 700 Series Computer. If neces-sary, select File >Get Connected to initiate a connection.3Click Explore toaccesstheMobileDevicefolderonyourunit.4From your desktop, select Start >Windows Explorer, then browse the“C:\Intermec\700C Mgmt Tools\CabFiles” path for any CAB filesneeded for your 700 Color Computer. Select the appropriate file, right-click the file for a pop-up menu, then select Copy.
Installing ApplicationsChapter —388 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual5Within the Mobile Device directory, go to the directory where youwant the files located on the 700 Color Computer, do a right-click for apop-up menu, then select Paste.6When all of the files are pasted, perform a warm-boot on the 700 ColorComputer. When the computer reboots, wait for the LED on the topleft of your keypad to stop blinking. Tap Start >Programs >FileExplorer to locate the newly copied executable files, then tap these filesto activate their utilities.Using the FTP ServerThe 700 Color Computer has a built-in FTP Server that connects to a net-work via Ethernet, 802.11b, or WAN (Wireless Access Network). Thisallows connections to the 700 Color Computer to perform file transfers orcomputer management functions. Another benefit is you can create FTPscripts 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 Computersneed updating. See Chapter 7, “Programming,” for more information.Using a Storage CardNote: The 730 Computer does not use the CompactFlash storage card,only Secure Digital storage cards. Use these instructions only if you areusing either a 740 or a 741 Computer that does not have an 802.11 radioinstalled. 730, 750, 751, 760, 761 Computers only use Secure Digitalstorage cards.Use the following steps to install an application using either a Compact-Flash or a Secure Digital storage card:1Suspend the 700 Color Computer and remove the storage card.2Insert the storage card into the storage card reader connected to yourdesktop PC.3Create a “\CabFiles” directory on the storage card, then copy (build intocabfiles) your application, data files, and all required DLLs and driversinto this directory.4See “Creating CAB Files” on page 188 to build a “\2577” directory tocontrol the autolaunching of these CAB files.5Remove the storage card from your card reader and reinstall it into the700 Color Computer.6Warm-boot the 700 Color Computer to install these files.Replicating 700 Color Settings Using the RegistryThis information updates the registry on your 700 Color Computer, con-firms the registry update, then copies the information onto other 700 Col-or Computers in your network.

Installing Applications—Chapter 395700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s ManualMigrating from a 700 Monochrome ComputerAs 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, mostAPIs should work without changes. Below are a few exceptions:SThe 700 Monochrome Computer uses the “\Storage Card” folder fornonvolatile storage. You may need to change the application to storedata 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 thatthe proper media is available in the system and call this API.SIf the application is using the 700 Color switchable dock, use theIOCTL_DOCK_SWITCH value from theIOCTL_HAL_ITC_WRITE_SYSPARM function to set the properport on the dock before communications. See more information aboutthis 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 changesare required in your application.SArrow and tab keys are reversed from the 700 Monochrome Computer.Keyboard remapping is available on the 700 Color Computer shouldyou need to map these keys like that of the 700 Monochrome Comput-er (see page 92).STargeting the ARM (SA1110) processor which creates applications thatrun on the 700 Color Computer requires the Windows Mobile 2003SDK.Installing Cabinet FilesCAB files (short form of “cabinet” files) are compressed folders as defined byMicrosoft. A “cabinet” file is a single file, usually suffixed with .CAB, thatstores compressed files in a file library. A compressed file can be spreadover 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 Series Computer, CAB files register DLLs, create shortcuts,modify registry entries, and run custom setup programs. Tap a CAB file toextract 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 Se-ries 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 CABfile is set with the read-only attribute.SUse AUTOCAB to extract all files when a cold-boot is performed onthe 700 Series Computer. See the Software Tools User’s Manual for in-formation.
