If the battery level becomes low in the course of normal
use, a status icon appears on the device screen
indicating low or very low battery status (see "Status
icons" on page 50). In both cases, perform an

enter sleep mode; if the battery level reaches very low
status, the device will enter deep sleep mode. In this
case, you have about 72 hours to recharge your device
after which you risk losing all data on your device’s
internal memory.
For information on how to wake up your device from
sleep mode, refer to page 219.
The battery pack is removable. Refer to page 14 for
instructions on how to remove it from the battery bay.

instructions.
To remove your PPC4100 from the cradle:
1. Gently tilt the device forward.
2. Pull the device up to detach it from the cradle.

Microsoft®ActiveSync®technology synchronizes
information between your Pocket PC and your computer
and/or a server so you always have the most up-to-date
information wherever you are.
Each time you synchronize, ActiveSync compares the
information on your device with the information on your
computer and/or the server and updates all locations.
This means you’ll always have the most recent
information at all times. Use ActiveSync to:
Keep Pocket Outlook data up-to-date by
synchronizing your device with the Microsoft Outlook
data on your computer.
Synchronize Inbox, Calendar, and Contacts with a
server so that you have the latest information, even
when you don’t have access to your computer.
Open and edit your Microsoft Word and Microsoft
Excel files in your device and synchronize it back to your
computer. Files are automatically converted to the
correct format.
Copy (rather than synchronize) files between your
device and your computer.
Control when synchronization occurs by selecting a
synchronisation schedule. For example, you can
synchronize continually while connected to your
computer or only when you select the synchronize
command.

Customize your synchronization settings
If you choose continuous synchronization, changes
made on the computer or device are duplicated
immediately. To recover a sudden loss of data, you can
configure ActiveSync to back up data on your device.
Choose whether to copy all information in the
internal storage on your device, or just the information
that has changed since the last backup.
Select which information types are synchronized and
control how much information is synchronised. To
illustrate, when synchronizing Calendar, you can set
ActiveSync to synchronize appointments within a certain
date range and for specific categories only. For example
business appointments from the past two weeks only.

The phone function of your PPC4100 Pocket PC boasts
of standard cell phone features—such as mailbox and
SMS—as well as several handy call features including
Speed Dial, Caller ID, Conference Call, Call Waiting,
Call Barring, Call History, speakerphone mode, note
taking, voice mail, and emergency number setting.
The Phone program is integrated with both Microsoft
Contacts and Inbox. This means you can make a call
and send email/SMS messages from any of these three
programs. This fully integrated functionality of Phone
also makes sharing contact information between
programs an easier task.
This chapter shows you how to install a SIM card on
your device. It also describes basic phone operations
and features, as well as ways of customizing the phone

4. Reinstall the battery pack. See page 14 for instructions.
The default settings for your device are programmed on
the assumption that you’ll be using the phone
function so once you’ve properly installed a SIM card
(and in some cases, entered a PIN), you can then
proceed to establishing a connection to your mobile
service provider’s network.
EENNTTEERRIINNGG YYOOUURR PPIINN
After you have installed the SIM card you’ll be able to
activate your mobile service connection. In most cases,
SIM cards are preset with a PIN (Personal Identity
Number), provided by your mobile service provider,
which you need to enter to establish mobile service
connection.

If you wish to use the Phone application, you need to
first install a valid SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card.
A SIM card is a small printed circuit board that must be
installed when signing on as a subscriber in a
GSM-based mobile phone like your PPC4100. It
contains subscriber details, security information and
memory for a personal directory of numbers. An AT&T
SIM card is included in your PPC4100 gitftbox.
To install the SIM card:
1. If the device is switched on:
(1) Press and hold the EEnnddbutton on your device
until appears in the navigation bar.
(2) Press the PPoowweerrbutton to turn off the device.
(3) Wait five (5) seconds to allow the device to
completely enter sleep mode.
2. Remove the battery pack. See page 14 for instructions.
3. Perform the following steps with the open rear panel
facing you:
(1) Slide the SIM card holder to the right.
(2) Lift the holder halfway from the recess area.
(3) Insert the SIM card into SIM card holder.
Note the proper position of the SIM card—the card
connector (i.e., gold area) should be facing downward
with the bevelled corner fitting the lower-left corner of the
recess area.
