Preface

Welcome
Congratulations on purchasing this Windows® Powered Pocket PC. Due to the
size and capabilities of the device, you can keep your most important business
and personal information up-to-date and close at hand. Microsoft ActiveSync
increases the power of your Pocket PC by allowing you to synchronize the
information on your desktop or Microsoft Exchange Server with your Pocket
PC. Picture yourself in the following situations:
While walking with a colleague, your cell phone rings and your boss asks if
you two are free this afternoon for an emergency meeting. While your
colleague fumbles through his paper organizer, you press a button on your
Pocket PC and instantly see a list of today’s appointments and meetings.
You are quickly able to tell the boss your available times. For more
information on scheduling appointments and meetings, see Chapter 4.
You are meeting your friends tonight for dinner and a movie. You download
the latest movie information from the Internet to your desktop computer and
then synchronize it with your Pocket PC. At dinner, you pull out your
Pocket PC and review your movie options with your friends. For more
information on downloading Web pages to your device, see Chapter 7.
A Calendar reminder alerts you that it is time to catch the bus. You grab
your Pocket PC and catch the bus just in time. Because ActiveSync keeps
the information on your Pocket PC up-to-date, you leisurely review your
task list, make notes about the new books and CDs you want to buy and read
and respond to e-mail messages. When you get back to the office,
ActiveSync transfers any task changes you made, your notes and your
e-mail message responses to your desktop computer. For more information
on ActiveSync, see Chapter 7.

v

In addition, your Pocket PC is a digital camera and a MP3 player as well.

In any program that accepts writing—such as the Notes program and the Notes
tab in Calendar, Contacts and Tasks—you can use your stylus to write directly
on the screen. Write the way you do on paper. You can edit and format what you
have written and convert the information to text later.

Writing
To write on the screen, tap the Pen button to switch to writing mode. This action
displays lines on the screen to help you write.

22

Tap the Pen button and use
your stylus like a pen.

NOTE: Some programs that accept writing may not have the Pen button. See the
documentation for that program to find out how to switch to writing mode.

Editing Your Writing
If you want to edit or format writing, you must first select the writing and then
edit it.
1. Tap and hold the stylus next to the text you want to select until the insertion
point appears. Without lifting, drag the stylus across the text you want to
select.
You can also select text by tapping the Pen button to deselect it and then
dragging the stylus across the screen.
2. Tap and hold the selected words and then tap an editing command (cut, copy
or paste) on the pop-up menu or tap the command on the Edit menu.
If you accidentally write on the screen, tap Tools

Undo and try again.

Converting Your Writing to Text
1. If you want to convert only certain words, select them before going to the
next step.

23

2. To convert writing to text, tap Tools Recognize or tap and hold the selected
words and then tap Recognize on the pop-up menu. Your writing is turned
into text.
If a word is not recognized, it is left as writing.

Select the text you want to
convert and tap Recognize
on the pop-up menu.

The writing is turned into
text.

If the conversion is incorrect, you can select different words from a list of
alternates or return to the original writing.
1. Tap and hold the incorrect word (tap one word at a time).
2. On the pop-up menu, tap Alternates. A menu with a list of alternate words

3. Tap the word you want to use or tap the writing at the top of the menu to
return to the original writing.

24

Tap to return to your original
writing.
Or, tap the word you want to use.

Some tips for getting good recognition are listed below:
Write neatly.
Write on the lines and draw descenders below the line. Write the cross of the
“t” and apostrophes below the top line so that they are not confused with the
word above. Write periods and commas above the line.
For better recognition, use the Tools menu to increase the zoom level to
300%.
Write the letters of a word close together and leave big gaps between words.
Hyphenated words, foreign words that use special characters such as
accents some punctuation cannot be converted.
If 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 will not be
included if you attempt to recognize the writing again.

Drawing on the Screen
You can draw on the screen in the same way that you write on the screen. The
difference between writing and drawing on the screen is how you select items
and how they can be edited. For example, selected drawings can be resized,
while writing cannot.

25

Creating a Drawing
1. To create a drawing, cross three ruled lines on your first stroke. A drawing
box appears.
2. Subsequent strokes in or touching the drawing box become part of the
drawing. Drawings that do not cross three ruled lines will be treated as
writing.

The drawing box indicates the
boundaries of the drawing.

Pen button.

the drawings you want.
2. Tap and hold the selected drawing and then tap an editing command (cut,
copy or paste) on the pop-up menu or tap the command on the Edit menu.
3. To resize a drawing, make sure the Pen button is not selected and then drag a
selection handle.

26

Recording a Message
In any program where you can write or draw on the screen, you can also quickly
capture thoughts, reminders and phone numbers by recording a message. In
Calendar, Tasks Contacts, you can include a recording in the Notes tab. In the
Notes program, you can either create a stand-alone recording or include a
recording in a written note. If you want to include the recording in a note, open
the note first. In the Inbox program, you can add a recording to an email
message.
To create a recording:
1. Hold the Pocket PC’s microphone near your mouth or other source of
sound.
2. Press and hold the record button on the side of your Pocket PC. If the

Tap to begin recording.

Tap to show or hide the
Recording toolbar.

Recording Formats
Your Pocket PC supports several formats for voice notes. The formats vary in
both the quality of the recording and the size of the sound file. When selecting a
recording format, you should consider the quality you need as well as how much
storage memory the recording will use on your Pocket PC.
Not all recording formats are compatible with other software or computers. If
you will share your recordings with others or transfer a recording to your
desktop computer, be sure to choose a recording format that is supported by the
software used to play recordings on the other computer.
The PCM format offers the highest quality recording and is compatible with all
Pocket PC models, other Windows-powered mobile devices and desktop
computers that use Windows operating systems. The GSM 6.10 format is
compatible with all Pocket PC models and other Windows-powered mobile
devices, but may not work with desktop computers.
To select a recording format:
1. Tap

Settings

Input icon.

2. On the Options tab in the Input control panel, select a voice recording format
from the drop-down list.

28

The list of recording formats on your Pocket PC indicates the sample rate,
whether the format is stereo or mono and how much storage memory is required
per second of recording. You may need to experiment with different sample
rates and formats to determine which format best suits your voice.

3 Managing Your Pocket PC
This chapter tells you how to effectively manage power, memory, settings, data
and programs of your Pocket PC.

3.1 Managing Power
You must maintain a continuous power supply to your Pocket PC to retain your
data, including any information, programs or settings that you added to your
Pocket PC.
A fully charged battery should provide power for up to 8 hours of use. The
operating time of a fully charged battery depends on how you are using the
Pocket PC. Some functions, such as using multimedia or operating a SD/MMC
card, may consume the battery power considerably.

Low Battery Signals and Actions
CAUTION:
Though your Pocket PC can retain data for 72 hours after its battery runs completely out
of power, you must constantly charge the battery of your Pocket PC. This can prevent
data loss or damage to the battery caused by the battery’s being kept in a discharged
state for too long.
When you recharge the battery upon a warning of low power, you should charge for at
least 30 minutes. If you unplug the AC adapter soon, you may not have sufficient battery
power for your operation.

You can monitor the battery power by tapping
Settings System tab
Power icon. The remaining power is displayed on a status bar in the Power
control panel.
When the battery is low, your Pocket PC will pop up a warning message. You
should save your data and recharge the battery immediately upon a warning of
low power; otherwise your Pocket PC will turn off automatically. You need to

31

connect the Pocket PC to external AC power for charging before you can use it
again. If the battery completely runs out of power, you will lose any
information, programs or settings that you added.

Power-Saving Tips
Follow these suggestions to maximize the battery’s operating time, particularly
when you are relying solely on the battery power for extended time periods.
Suspend frequently.
By default, the screen backlight will automatically turn off and the Pocket
PC will also turn off when it has been idle for a period of time. You can
shorten the length of the idle time using
Settings System tab
Power Advanced tab to set up.
Press the power button to turn off your Pocket PC when it is not in use, even
for a short time. You can also manually turn off the backlight by pressing
and holding the power button.
Turn off functions not needed or adjust settings.
Lower the volume.
Do not enable sounds or light flashing except for the most necessary
notifications. (Tap
Settings Personal tab
Sounds &
Notifications icon to set up.)
Remove the SD/MMC card, if installed, from the slot if you are not
using it.
Avoid power-consuming situations such as:
When connecting your Pocket PC to your desktop computer (Your
Pocket PC will not auto-suspend while it is connected.)
When using a modem or other peripheral
When monitoring infrared transfers (Although you can set your Pocket
PC to constantly monitor the IR port for files sent from other devices,
doing so will quickly drain your battery.)
When playing sound or music
When recording.

32

3.2 Managing Memory
Storage and Program Memory
Files, settings and data that you add to your Pocket PC are stored in RAM
(Random Access Memory). The RAM on your Pocket PC is shared between
storage memory and program memory.
Storage memory
Storage memory is used to store the data you create and additional programs
you install.
Program memory
Program memory is used to run programs on your Pocket PC.
Your Pocket PC automatically manages the allocation between storage and
program memory. However, in some situations, such as when the memory is
running out, your Pocket PC may not be able to automatically adjust the
allocation. (For information on solving memory problems, see section 8.4.)

Additional Memory
You can buy a SD/MMC storage card for backup, storage, archives or to
transfer large files to other devices. Files stored on a storage card appear in a
folder called SDMMC Disk, listed under My Device in the File Explorer application.
Data stored on a storage card will be saved, even if your Pocket PC loses power.
To protect your data, you can back up regularly to a storage card.

33

3.3 Customizing Your Pocket PC
NOTE: Incorrect settings may cause your system to malfunction. Make sure that you fully
understand the function of a certain item before any adjustment.

and Tasks). You can set ActiveSync to back up automatically each time you
connect or you can back up manually, whenever you choose. For more
information, see ActiveSync Help on your desktop computer.

3.7 Adding or Removing Programs
Programs added to your Pocket PC at the factory are stored in ROM (Read-Only
Memory). You cannot remove the programs and you will never accidentally
lose ROM contents. All other programs and data files added to your Pocket PC
after factory installations are stored in RAM.
You can install any program created for your Pocket PC as long as your Pocket
PC has enough memory. The most popular place to find software for your
Pocket PC is on the Pocket PC Web site (http://www.pocketpc.com).

Connecting Directly to an E-mail Server
You can send and receive email messages by connecting to a POP3 or IMAP4
e-mail server if you can connect to your ISP or local area network. (For
information on connection, see Sections 7.4.)

Setting up an Email Service
You can use multiple email services to receive your messages. For each email
service you intend to use, first set up and name the email service. If you use the
same service to connect to different mailboxes, set up and name each mailbox
connection.
In Inbox, tap Acccouts New Account. Follow the directions in the New Service
Wizard. For an explanation of a screen, tap at the upper right corner of the
screen.
NOTE: You cannot add a new service while connected. Tap Accounts

When you connect to the email server, new messages are downloaded to the
Inbox folder on your Pocket PC, messages in the Pocket PC Outbox folder are
sent messages that have been deleted on the email server are removed from the
Inbox folder on your Pocket PC.
Messages that you receive directly from an email server are linked to your email
server rather than your desktop computer. When you delete a message on your
Pocket PC, it is also deleted from the email server the next time you connect
based on the settings you selected in ActiveSync.
You can work online or offline. When working online, you read and respond to
messages while connected to the email server. Messages are sent as soon as you
tap Send, which saves space on your Pocket PC.
When working offline, once you have downloaded new message headers or
partial messages, you can disconnect from the email 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.

54

days only, the first 100 lines of each new message file attachments of less than
100KB in size. The original messages remain on the server or your desktop
computer.
You can mark the messages that you want to retrieve in full during your next
synchronization or email server connection. In the message list, tap and hold the
message you want to retrieve. On the pop-up menu, tap Mark for Download. The
icons in the Inbox message list give you visual indications of message status.

NOTE: OLE objects cannot be attached to Inbox messages.

57

7. Tap Send when you have finished the message. If you are working offline,
the message is moved to the Outbox folder and is sent the next time you
connect.
The message is placed in the Outbox folder on your Pocket PC and will be
delivered in one of two ways:
The message is transferred to the Outbox folder in Exchange or Outlook on
your desktop computer and sent the next time you synchronize.
The message is transferred to your email server the next time you connect.
In Inbox, make sure the appropriate service is selected on the Accounts
menu. Then tap the Connect button (or Connect on the Accounts menu).

Managing Email Messages and Folders
Each e-mail service 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 service are stored in these folders. You can
also create additional folders within each hierarchy.
The Deleted Items folder contains messages that have been deleted on your
Pocket PC. The behaviour of the Deleted and Sent Items folders depends on the
options you have chosen.

Folder Behavior
The behavior of the folders you create depends on whether you are using
ActiveSync, POP3 or IMAP4.
If you use ActiveSync, email messages in the Inbox folder in Outlook are
automatically synchronized with your Pocket PC. You can select to
synchronize additional folders by designating them for ActiveSync The
folders you create and the messages you move are 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.
If you use POP3 and you move email messages to a folder you created, the
link is broken between the messages on the Pocket PC and their copies on
the mail server. The next time you connect, the mail server sees that the

58

messages are missing from the Pocket PC 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
folders created from anywhere except the Pocket PC.
If you use IMAP4, the folders you create and the email 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 Pocket PC
or desktop computer. This synchronization of folders occurs whenever you
connect to your mail server, create new folders or rename/delete folders
when connected.
For all services except ActiveSync, you can access folder options by tapping
Tools
Manage Folders in the message list.

59

changes in perceived color. As a result, a white object will look
white to humans whether viewed in sunlight, under overcast
skies, or indoors under incandescent or fluorescent lighting. A
digital camera must emulate the human brain and adjust colors
according to lighting so that colors that appear white when
viewed directly also appear while in the final photo. This
adjustment is called “white balance.”

7 Getting Connected
This chapter tells you how you can get your Pocket PC connected to your
desktop computer, to an IR device and to the Internet or corporate network. It
also describes two applications on your Pocket PC: ActiveSync (for data
synchronization) and Internet Explorer (for Web browsing).

7.1 Connection Options
To take full advantage of your Pocket PC, you will want to get connected. You
have the following connection options with your Pocket PC:
Connect to your desktop computer to synchronize information with another
computer. (For details, see section 7.2.)
Use the IR port on your Pocket PC to send and receive files between two
devices. (For details, see section 7.3.)
Connect to the Internet or a corporate network to browse the Internet or
intranet and send and receive e-mail messages. (For details, see section 7.4.)

7.2 Connecting to Your Desktop Computer
Ways of Connecting to Your Desktop Computer
CAUTION: Do not shut down or restart your desktop computer while your Pocket PC is
connected. Turn off your Pocket PC or disconnect the cable before you shut down your
desktop computer.

You can connect your Pocket PC to a desktop computer in several ways:
Use the USB cradle or ActiveSync cable (available as an optional
accessory) (See step 8 of section 1.4 for information.)

99

Use the IR port in place of using a cable. IR ports can be found on many
notebook computers; however, on a desktop computer, you may need to
install and configure an IR port. To install the port, follow the
manufacturer’s instructions. (For complete instructions on connecting to
your desktop computer by infrared, refer to ActiveSync Help on your
desktop computer.)
Use a network or dial-up connection. You can synchronize while connected
to your desktop computer by a dial-up connection or over a LAN (Local
Area Network).

Microsoft ActiveSync
NOTE: ActiveSync is already installed on your Pocket PC. You need to install ActiveSync
on your desktop computer. (For information on installing ActiveSync, see section 1.4.)

When you have established the connection between your Pocket PC and your
desktop computer, you can synchronize the information between the two with
ActiveSync. Synchronization compares the data on the two sides and updates
both computers with the most recent information. For example, you can:
Keep your Pocket Outlook Contacts, Calendar and Tasks databases
up-to-date by synchronizing your Pocket PC with Microsoft Outlook data
on your desktop computer.
Synchronize email messages in your Pocket PC Inbox with email messages
in Microsoft Outlook on your desktop computer.
Synchronize Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel files between your
Pocket PC and desktop computer. Your files are automatically converted to
the correct format.
With ActiveSync, you can also:
Back up and restore your Pocket PC data.
Copy (rather than synchronize) files between your Pocket PC and desktop
computer.
Add and remove programs on your Pocket PC.
Pass through your desktop computer to a network or the Internet to perform
tasks such as downloading IMAP4 e-mail messages or browsing the
Internet on your Pocket PC.

100

Synchronizing Data
Once you have created a partnership and completed the first synchronization,
you can initiate synchronization from your Pocket PC.

To Synchronize from Your Pocket PC
1. Connect your Pocket PC to your desktop computer.
2. On your Pocket PC, tap
3. Tap

ActiveSync.

to begin synchronization.

View connection status.
Tap to connect and synchronize.
Tap to stop synchronization.

View synchronization status.

Tap to synchronize via IR or change
synchronization settings.

By default, ActiveSync does not automatically synchronize all types of
information. Use ActiveSync options to turn synchronization on and off for
specific information types. You can:
Control when synchronization occurs by selecting a synchronization mode.
For example, you can synchronize continually while the Pocket PC is
connected or only when you choose the synchronize command.
Select 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.
For information on setting ActiveSync options and using ActiveSync on your
desktop computer, see ActiveSync Help on the desktop computer. For

101

information on using ActiveSync on your Pocket PC, see ActiveSync Help on
the Pocket PC.

To Synchronize from a Remote Location
You can also synchronize by dialing in to your desktop computer or connecting
over a network. This can be useful if you need to synchronize files or PIM
information while traveling. Before you leave, you must configure both your
Pocket PC and your desktop computer.
On your Pocket PC, you need to create a partnership between your Pocket PC
and the desktop computer using one of the direct connection methods (USB
cable or infrared connection). You must also configure a connection on your
Pocket PC as described in section 7.4.
On your desktop computer, you need to ensure the following:
The desktop computer or network server is configured to allow your Pocket
PC to connect. Depending on the version of Windows running on the
desktop computer, you may need to install and configure Remote Access
Services or Dial-Up Networking on the desktop computer.
ActiveSync is configured to allow a network connection. For more
information, see ActiveSync Help on your desktop computer.
If you are using a modem on your desktop computer, turn the modem on
before you leave.
Leave your desktop computer on and be sure you logged on under the same
user name that you used when you created the partnership.
Your PIM program and email program (Microsoft Outlook or Microsoft
Exchange) should be running correctly.

102

7.3 Transferring Items Using Infrared
Using infrared (IR), you can send and receive information, such as contacts and
appointments, between two devices. In addition, you can use the IR port to
synchronize data with your desktop computer, in place of using the
synchronizing cable.

Sending Information
1. Switch to the program where you created the item you want to send and
locate the item in the list.
2. Align the IR ports so that they are unobstructed and within a close range.
CAUTION: If the devices are too far apart or if something blocks the path between the two
ports, data might not be sent or received correctly.

3. Tap and hold the item and tap Beam Item on the pop-up menu.

NOTE: You can also send items, but not folders, from File Explorer. Tap and hold the item
you want to send and then tap Beam File on the pop-up menu.

103

Receiving Information
1. Align the IR ports so that they are unobstructed and within a close range.
2. Have the owner of the other device send the information to you.
3. By default, your Pocket PC monitors all incoming beams. A message will
pop up on the screen asking if you want to receive. Tap Yes.
NOTE:
You can disable the automatic monitoring of your Pocket PC by tapping

corporate network you use at work.
Connections can be made using a modem, wireless network or network
(Ethernet) card.
After setting up the connection, you can browse the Internet or intranet, send
and receive e-mail and instant messages and synchronize information using
ActiveSync.

Creating a Modem Connection
With a modem, you can dial in to your ISP or corporate network. Create a
modem connection as follows:
1. Obtain the following information from your ISP or network administrator:
