ADDING PROGRAMS
CONNECTIONS
Adjust settings for connecting to your ISP or to a local
network.
ADDING PROGRAMS TO YOUR DEVICE
Programs bundled with your device at the factory are
stored in ROM (read-only memory). You cannot remove
these programs, and you'll never accidentally lose ROM
contents. ROM programs can be updated using special
installation programs with a *.xip extension. All other programs
and data files installed to your device after factory
installation are stored in RAM (random access memory).
You can install any program created for your device, as
long as it has enough memory. The most popular place to
find software for your device is on the Pocket PC Web site
(http://www.microsoft.com/mobile/pocketpc/). You can
add programs to your device either by using ActiveSync
or by downloading the program from the Internet.
To add a program using ActiveSync:

Folder behavior with a direct connection to an
email server:
The behavior of the folders you create depends on
whether you are using ActiveSync, SMS, POP3, or
IMAP4 account.
If you use ActiveSync, email messages in the Inbox
folder in Outlook will automatically be synchronized with
your device. You can select to synchronize additional
folders by designating them for ActiveSync. The folders
you create and the messages you move will then be
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 computer.
If you use SMS, messages are stored in the Inbox
folder.
If you use POP3 and you move email messages to a
folder you created, the link is broken between the
messages on your device and their copies on the email
server. The next time you connect, the email server will
see that the messages are missing from the device’s
Inbox and delete them from the server. This prevents you
from having duplicate copies of a message, but it also
means that you will no longer have access to messages
that you move to folders created from anywhere except
your device.
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 email server, whether it is from your
device or from your computer. This synchronization of
folders occurs whenever you connect to your mail server,
create new folders, or rename/delete folders when
connected.

SAFETY INFORMATION
Read The Information In This Chapter Before Using
Your PPC4100 Pocket PC Phone
RADIOFREQUENCY (RF) ENERGY EMISSION
All portable computers produce low levels of RF energy
due to the generation of digital timing pulses by its clock
oscillator circuits. Your wireless handheld portable
Pocket PC phone is a low power radio transmitter and
receiver. When it is ON, it receives and also sends out
RF signals.
In August 1996, the Federal Communications
Commissions (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines
with safety levels for handheld wireless phones. Those
guidelines are consistent with the safety standards
previously set by both U.S. and international standards
bodies:
ANSI C95.1 (1992)
NCRP Report 86 (1986)
ICNIRP (1996)
Those standards were based on comprehensive and
periodic evaluations of the relevant scientific literature.
For example, over 120 scientists, engineers, and
physicians from universities, government health
agencies, and industry reviewed the available body of
research to develop the ANSI Standard (C951).
Nevertheless, we recommend that you use a hands-free
kit with your Pocket PC (such as an earpiece or headset)
to avoid potential exposure to RF energy.
254
Page 254
Your device has been equipped with internal shielding to
minimize stray emissions of RF energy. However, using
your device can still be limited in the some instances.
When boarding aircraft
Most airline regulations prohibit the on-board use of
portable PCs (and all other portable electronic devices
that could potentially emit stray RF energy), particularly
during take-offs and landings, to prevent any possible
interference with the reception of signals by airborne
electronic navigational devices.
FCC regulations prohibit using your device while in
the air. Turn your device OFF before boarding an aircraft.
Always request and obtain prior consent and approval
of an authorized airline representative before using your
device aboard an aircraft.
Always follow the instructions of the airline
representative whenever using your device aboard an
aircraft, to prevent any possible interference with
airborne electronic equipment.
When inside hospitals and other health care facilities
Turn your device OFF in health care facilities when
any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do
so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using
equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
“device OFF” means to turn the radio standby switch
“OFF”, then turn the power off by pressing the Power
button .
Always comply with posted prohibitions of the use of
RF-emitting devices in hospitals and other medical
facilities. Failure to follow such directives could result in
the interference with medical equipment and/or devices.
255
PPC4100 Owner’s Manual - EN 3.7.qxd
4/22/2004
4:26 PM
Posted facilities
Turn your device OFF in any facility where posted
notices require so.
Blasting areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your
device OFF when in a “blasting area” or in areas posted
“Turn off two-way radio”. Obey all signs and instructions.
Within certain radius from some electronic equipment
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF
signals. However, certain electronic equipment may not
be shielded against the RF signals from your device
including:
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association
recommends that a minimum separation of six (6")
inches must be maintained between your device and a
pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the
pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with
the independent research and recommendations of
Wireless Technology Research.
Never come closer than six (6) inches to a person with
a heart pacemaker implant when using this device.
Failure to do so could result in interference with the
function of the pacemaker.
Persons with pacemakers
- Should ALWAYS keep the device more than six
inches from their pacemaker when the device is
turned ON.

SAR INFORMATION
THE PPC4100 POCKET PC MEETS THE
GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE
TO RADIO WAVES.
Your Pocket PC phone is a radio transmitter and
receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed
the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency
|energy set by the FCC. These limits are part of
comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels
of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines
are based on standards that were developed by
independent scientific organizations through periodic
and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The
standards include a substantial safety margin designed
to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and
health.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones
employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific
Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC
is 1.6 W/kg. Tests for SAR are conducted with the phone
transmitting at its highest certified power level in all
tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is
determined at the highest certified power level, the
actual SAR level of the phone while operating can be
well below the maximum value. This is because the
phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels so
as to use only the power required to reach the network.
In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station
antenna, the lower the power output.
270
271
PPC4100 Owner’s Manual - EN 3.7.qxd
4/22/2004
4:26 PM
NOTE: In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile
phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over
one gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a substantial
margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to
account for any variations in measurements.
Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it
must be tested and certified to the FCC that it does not
exceed the limit established by the government-adopted
requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed in
positions and locations (e.g., worn on the body) as required
by the FCC for each model. The highest SAR value for this
Pocket PC phone tested when being worn on the body, as
described in this manual, is 1.32 W/kg. (Body-worn
measurements differ among phone models, depending
upon available accessories and FCC requirements). While
there may be differences between the SAR levels of various
phones and at various positions, they all meet the
government requirement for safe exposure.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this
Pocket PC phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as
in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR
information on this device is on file with the FCC and can be
found under the Display Grant section of
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching for FCC ID
PU5SP230A.

FDA CONSUMER UPDATE
The following are taken from the U.S. FDA - Center for
Devices and Radiological Health consumer update on
wireless phones.
Do wireless phones pose a health hazard?
The available scientific evidence does not show that any
health problems are associated with using wireless
phones. There is no proof, however, that wireless
phones are absolutely safe. Wireless phones emit low
levels of radiofrequency energy (RF) in the microwave
range while being used. They also emit very low levels of
RF when in the stand-by mode. Whereas high levels of
RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue),
exposure to low level RF that does not produce heating
effects causes no known adverse health effects. Many
studies of low level RF exposures have not found any
biological effects. Some studies have suggested that
some biological effects may occur, but such findings
have not been confirmed by additional research. In some
cases, other researchers have had difficulty in
reproducing those studies, or in determining the reasons
for inconsistent results.
What is FDA's role concerning the safety of wireless
phones?
Under the law, FDA does not review the safety of
radiation-emitting consumer products such as wireless
phones before they can be sold, as it does with new
drugs or medical devices. However, the agency has
authority to take action if wireless phones are shown to
emit RF energy at a level that is hazardous to the user.
273
PPC4100 Owner’s Manual - EN 3.7.qxd
4/22/2004
4:26 PM
In such a case, FDA could require the manufacturers of
wireless phones to notify users of the health hazard and
to repair, replace or recall the phones so that the hazard
no longer exists. Although the existing scientific data do
not justify FDA regulatory actions, FDA has urged the
wireless phone industry to take a number of steps,
including the following:
Support needed research into possible biological
effects of RF of the type emitted by wireless phones;
Design wireless phones in a way that minimizes any
RF exposure to the user that is not necessary for device
function; and
Cooperate in providing users of wireless phones with
the best possible information on possible effects of
wireless phone use on human health.
FDA belongs to an interagency working group of the
federal agencies that have responsibility for different
aspects of RF safety to ensure coordinated efforts at the
federal level. The following agencies belong to this
working group:
National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health
Environmental Protection Agency
Federal Communications Commission
Occupational Safety and Health Administration
National Telecommunications and Information
Administration
The National Institutes of Health participates in some
interagency working group activities, as well.
Page 274
FCC also regulates the base stations that the wireless
phone networks rely upon. While these base stations
operate at higher power than do the wireless phones
themselves, the RF exposures that people get from
these base stations are typically thousands of times
lower than those they can get from wireless phones.
Base stations are thus not the subject of the safety
questions discussed in this document.
What kinds of phones are the subject of this update?
The term “wireless phone” refers here to hand-held
wireless phones with built-in antennas, often called
“cell,” “mobile,” or “PCS” phones. These types of wireless
phones can expose the user to measurable RF energy
because of the short distance between the phone and
the user's head.
These RF exposures are limited by FCC safety
guidelines that were developed with the advice of FDA
and other federal health and safety agencies. When the
phone is located at greater distances from the user, the
exposure to RF is drastically lower because a person's
RF exposure decreases rapidly with increasing distance
from the source. The so-called “cordless phones”, which
have a base unit connected to the telephone wiring in a
house, typically operate at far lower power levels, and
thus produce RF exposures far below the FCC safety
limits.
FDA shares regulatory responsibilities for wireless
phones with the FCC. All phones that are sold in the
United States must comply with FCC safety guidelines
that limit RF exposure. FCC relies on FDA and other
health agencies for safety questions about wireless
phones.

What are the results of the research done already?
The research done thus far has produced conflicting
results, and many studies have suffered from flaws in
their research methods.
Animal experiments investigating the effects of RF
energy exposures characteristic of wireless phones
have yielded conflicting results that often cannot be
repeated in other laboratories. A few animal studies,
however, have suggested that low levels of RF could
accelerate the development of cancer in laboratory
animals. However, many of the studies that showed
increased tumor development used animals that had
been genetically engineered or treated with
cancer-causing chemicals so as to be pre-disposed to
develop cancer in the absence of RF exposure. Other
studies exposed the animals to RF for up to 22 hours per
day. These conditions are not similar to the conditions
under which people use wireless phones, so we don't
know with certainty what the results of such studies
mean for human health.
Three large epidemiology studies have been published
since December 2000. Between them, the studies
investigated any possible association between the use
of wireless phones and primary brain cancer, glioma,
meningioma, or acoustic neuroma, tumors of the brain
or salivary gland, leukemia, or other cancers. None of
the studies demonstrated the existence of any harmful
health effects from wireless phone RF exposures.
However, none of the studies can answer questions
about long-term exposures, since the average period of
phone use in these studies was around three years.
276
Page 276
What research is needed to decide whether RF
exposure from wireless phones poses a health risk?
A combination of laboratory studies and epidemiological
studies of people actually using wireless phones would
provide some of the data that are needed. Lifetime
animal exposure studies could be completed in a few
years. However, very large numbers of animals would be
needed to provide reliable proof of a cancer promoting
effect if one exists. Epidemiological studies can provide
data that is directly applicable to human populations, but
10 or more years' follow-up may be needed to provide
answers about some health effects, such as cancer.
This is because the interval between the time of
exposure to a cancer-causing agent and the time tumors
develop - if they do - may be many, many years. The
interpretation of epidemiological studies is hampered by
difficulties in measuring actual RF exposure during
day-to-day use of wireless phones. Many factors affect
this measurement, such as the angle at which the phone
is held, or which model of phone is used.
What is FDA doing to find out more about the possible
health effects of wireless phone RF?
FDA is working with the U.S. National Toxicology
Program and with groups of investigators around the
world to ensure that high priority animal studies are
conducted to address important questions about the
effects of exposure to RF energy. FDA has been a
leading participant in the World Health Organization’s
International Electromagnetic Fields (EMF) project since
its inception in 1996. An influential result of this work has
been the development of a detailed agenda of research
needs that has driven the establishment of new research
programs around the world. The project has also helped
develop a series of public information documents on
EMF issues.
277
PPC4100 Owner’s Manual - EN 3.7.qxd
4/22/2004
4:26 PM
FDA and the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet
Association (CTIA) have a formal Cooperative Research
and Development Agreement (CRADA) to do research
on wireless phone safety. FDA provides the scientific
oversight, obtaining input from experts in government,
industry, and academic organizations. CTIA-funded
research is conducted through contracts to independent
investigators. The initial research will include both
laboratory studies and studies of wireless phone users.
The CRADA will also include a broad assessment of
additional research needs in the context of the latest
research developments around the world.
How can I find out how much radiofrequency energy
exposure I can get by using my Pocket PC phone?
All phones sold in the United States must comply with
FCC guidelines that limit RF energy exposures. FCC
established these guidelines in consultation with FDA
and the other federal health and safety agencies. The
FCC limit for RF exposure from wireless telephones is
set at a SAR of 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg). The
FCC limit is consistent with the safety standards
developed by the Institute of Electrical and Electronic
Engineering (IEEE) and the National Council on
Radiation Protection and Measurement. The exposure
limit takes into consideration the body's ability to remove
heat from the tissues that absorb energy from the
wireless phone and is set well below levels known to
have effects.
Manufacturers of wireless phones must report the RF
exposure level for each model of phone to the FCC. The
FCC web site (http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety) gives
directions for locating the FCC identification number on
your phone so you can find your phone's RF exposure
level in the online listing.
278
Page 278
What has FDA done to measure the radiofrequency
energy coming from wireless phones?
The IEEE is developing a technical standard for
measuring the RF energy exposure from wireless
phones and other wireless handsets with the
participation and leadership of FDA scientists and
engineers. The standard, “Recommended Practice for
Determining the Spatial-Peak Specific Absorption Rate
(SAR) in the Human Body Due to Wireless
Communications devices: Experimental Techniques”,
sets forth the first consistent test methodology for
measuring the rate at which RF is deposited in the
heads of wireless phone users. The test method uses a
tissue-simulating model of the human head.
Standardized SAR test methodology is expected to
greatly improve the consistency of measurements made
at different laboratories on the same phone. SAR is the
measurement of the amount of energy absorbed in
tissue, either by the whole body or a small part of the
body. It is measured in watts/kg (or milliwatts/g) of
matter. This measurement is used to determine whether
a wireless phone complies with safety guidelines.
What steps can I take to reduce my exposure to RF
energy from my Pocket PC phone?
If there is a risk from these products-and at this point we
do not know that there is-it is probably very small. But if
you are concerned about avoiding even potential risks,
you can take a few simple steps to minimize your
exposure to RF energy. Since time is a key factor in how
much exposure a person receives, reducing the amount
of time spent using your device’s phone function will
reduce RF exposure.

If you must conduct extended conversations using your
Pocket PC phone every day, you could place more
distance between your body and the device, since the
exposure level drops off dramatically with distance. It is
also advisable to carry your Pocket PC phone away from
your body.
Again, the scientific data do not demonstrate that
wireless phones are harmful. But if you are concerned
about the RF exposure from these products, you can
use measures like those described above to reduce your
RF exposure from using your Pocket PC phone.
What about children using wireless phones?
The scientific evidence does not show a danger to users
of wireless phones, including children and teenagers. If
you want to take steps to lower exposure to RF energy,
the measures described above would apply to children
and teenagers using your Pocket PC phone. Reducing
the time of using the phone function and increasing the
distance between the user and the Pocket PC phone. will
reduce RF exposure.
Some groups sponsored by other national governments
have advised that children be discouraged from using
wireless phones at all. For example, the government in
the United Kingdom distributed leaflets containing such
a recommendation in December 2000. They noted that
no evidence exists that using a wireless phone causes
brain tumors or other ill effects. Their recommendation to
limit wireless phone use by children was strictly
precautionary; it was not based on scientific evidence
that any health hazard exists.

What about wireless phone interference with medical
equipment?
RF energy from wireless phones can interact with some
electronic devices. For this reason, FDA helped develop
a detailed test method to measure electromagnetic
interference (EMI) of implanted cardiac pacemakers and
defibrillators from wireless telephones.
This test method is now part of a standard sponsored by
the Association for the Advancement of Medical
instrumentation (AAMI). The final draft, a joint effort by
FDA, medical device manufacturers, and many other
groups, was completed in late 2000. This standard will
allow manufacturers to ensure that cardiac pacemakers
and defibrillators are safe from wireless phone EMI. FDA
has tested hearing aids for interference from handheld
wireless phones and helped develop a voluntary
standard sponsored by the IEEE. This standard
specifies test methods and performance requirements
for hearing aids and wireless phones so that no
interference occurs when a person uses a compatible
phone and a compatible hearing aid at the same time.
This standard was approved by the IEEE in 2000.
FDA continues to monitor the use of wireless phones for
possible interactions with other medical devices. Should
harmful interference be found to occur, FDA will conduct
testing to assess the interference and work to resolve
the problem.
