See the section in this chapter “Performing a Hard Reset” for more information.Resetting the UnitSometimes there is a need to reset your Pocket PC. Resetting the unit is known as performing a “soft” or “hard” reset. A soft reset (also known as a normal reset) stops all running applications, but does not erase any programs or saved data. A hard reset (also known as a full reset) is used when you want to clear all user-installed settings, programs, and data from the Read-Only Memory (ROM). By performing a hard reset, you return the device to its original shipping state.

8VHU·V*XLGH ²3Managing the BatteryYour iPAQ Pocket PC is shipped with a rechargeable battery that is partially charged. It is recommended that you fully charge the Pocket PC battery before setting up the unit, and recharge regularly. Your Pocket PC uses some power to maintain files in RAM and the clock. While working at your desk, keep the Pocket PC and AC Adapter connected through the USB Synchronization Common cradle. When you travel, it is recommended that you carry the AC Adapter, Charger Adapter plug, or an optional spare battery with you.ÄCAUTION: Use only an HP approved battery for your iPAQ Pocket PC. Inserting a battery that does not comply with HP requirements might cause the Pocket PC to malfunction.The iPAQ Pocket PC also has a small internal backup battery that allows you to change the main battery without losing RAM data (user-installed programs and data) as long as it is replaced within 15 minutes. The internal battery can only be removed by qualified HP Technical Support.Installing the BatteryTo install the removable/rechargeable battery:1. Insert the right side of the battery into the right side of the battery compartment.

Press the bottom of the battery cover into place until it clicks 2.ÄCAUTION: The cover must be in place for the Pocket PC to operate. If the battery cover is not in place when you press the Power button, the Pocket PC will not power on.NOTE: If the battery is fully discharged, you must connect the AC Adapter to the Pocket PC to fully charge it before continuing. It takes up to four hours to fully charge a completely drained battery.
0DQDJLQJWKH%DWWHU\8VHU·V*XLGH ²Removing the BatteryÄCAUTION: Before removing the battery, use iPAQ Backup or ActiveSync to back up data on your Pocket PC. If you need to clear the memory during the removal process, you will be able to restore the data. To prevent losing information, you can also copy user-installed applications to the iPAQ File Store folder. For more information on the File Store, refer to Chapter 4, in section “Using iPAQ File Store Folder.”To remove the battery:1. Press the battery button down 1.2. Swing the battery door up and remove it from the unit 2.
8VHU·V*XLGH ²0DQDJLQJWKH%DWWHU\3. Lift the left side of the battery up and remove it from the Pokcet PC.ÄCAUTION: Because most of the applications and data you install on your Pocket PC are held in memory (RAM), you will need to reinstall them if the battery completely discharges or if the battery is removed from the unit for more than 15 minutes. Otherwise, when fully charged, the internal backup battery saves the user-installed data for up to 15 minutes when the standard battery is removed. Before removing the battery, check to see that the internal backup battery is fully charged by tapping Start > Settings > System tab > Power.You do not need to reinstall applications and data installed in the iPAQ File Store folder because they are saved in nonvolatile memory.Charging with the AC AdapterThe standard AC Adapter works in a standard electrical outlet. You can also charge your Pocket PC in your automobile with an optional automobile adapter that works in your vehicle’s electrical cigarette lighter or a 12-volt power outlet.To purchase an optional automobile adapter, refer to the HP Web site at: www.hp.com/go/ipaqaccessories.
0DQDJLQJWKH%DWWHU\8VHU·V*XLGH ²ÄCAUTION: Use only HP recommended AC adapters.To charge your Pocket PC using the AC Adapter:1. Insert the AC Adapter plug into the AC Charger adapter 1.2. Plug the AC Adapter into an electrical outlet 2.3. Insert the AC Charger adapter into the bottom of the Pocket PC 3.ÄCAUTION: To avoid damaging your Pocket PC or the AC Adapter, check to be sure all connectors are properly aligned before connecting them.4. When the Power button indicator on the front of the Pocket PC turns solid amber, the unit is fully charged and you can disconnect the AC Adapter. The approximate time to fully charge a drained battery is four hours.NOTE: A standard battery can be charged in about four hours, an optional extended battery takes longer.

These batteries can be charged in the HP iPAQ Battery Charger. To purchase an extra battery and/or a battery charger, refer to the HP Web site at www.hp.com/go/ipaqaccessories.To charge a spare battery:1. Plug the AC Adapter into an electrical outlet 1 and connect the other end of the AC Adapter to the AC connector on the battery charger 2.2. Insert the battery into the battery compartment 3 with the connectors on the top of the battery lined up with the connectors inside the battery compartment, and push in to seat it 4.3. When the light on the front of the battery charger 5 is blinking amber, the battery is charging. When the light becomes solid amber, the battery is completely charged and ready to use.NOTE: If the battery light goes out when you are charging the battery, you either have a bad battery or a timeout has occurred.

Use your touchpad to select items, scroll, launch applications, and cursor control.The touchpad is similar to using a mouse. Here are some terms used when using the touchpad or cursor.■Center Tap selects an item or launches an application.■Tapping means quickly touching and then lifting your finger off the Touchpad surface.■Swipe Gesture swipes a specified number of steps in the direction you swipe (vertical or horizontal).■Swipe-and-Hold provides continuous scrolling in the direction you want to scroll.Personalizing Your Touchpad SettingsYou can personalize the following settings for your HP iPAQ touchpad:■Touchpad sensitivity allows you to control how much finger pressure is required to move the pointer at a particular speed.■Scrolling Rate specifies how many steps a Swipe gesture or a Swipe-and-Hold gesture scrolls when you are in Navigation Mode.■Cursor Speed allows you to adjust how quickly the cursor moves in your iPAQ screen when you are in Cursor Mode.For more information on your HP iPAQ touchpad, refer to the online help on your HP iPAQ or go to the Synaptics NavPoint tutorial located on the Companion CD.

More information to come.>Getting AcquaintedWith wireless access, you do not need to use cables to connect your HP iPAQ to the Internet. Instead, access points transmit data to and from your wireless device. Your HP iPAQ can connect to an 802.11b WLAN or connect directly to other WLAN-enabled devices. With Wi-Fi, you can:■Access the Internet■Send and receive e-mail■Access corporate network information■Use virtual private networks (VPNs) for secure remote access■Use hotspots for wireless connectivityNote: 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 standard Wi-Fi infrastructure and 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.

If you cover up the top of the HP iPAQ after you have turned on Wi-Fi, signal strength diminishes.To turn the Wi-Fi on or off:1. From the Today screen, tap the iPAQ Wireless icon () in the Command bar located at the bottom of the screen.2. Tap the Wi-Fi button.When Wi-Fi is powered on, the Wi-Fi icon on the iPAQ Wireless screen turns from gray to to amber to green and the Wi-Fi light-emitting diode (LED), located on the top left corner of the unit, is solid blue indicating one or more radios are on.Note: Even though the indicator is blue to indicate Wi-Fi is turned on, it does not necessarily mean a connection has been established with another device or access point.If Wi-Fi is off, the Wi-Fi icon turns from green to gray.
