Introduction
Card Backup Tool lets you quickly and easily back up your CASSIOPEIA memory data
to a memory card. Backed up data can be used to restore your system should it start to
malfunction due to some data error.
Backed Up Data
Card Backup Tool backs up the following three types of data in CASSIOPEIA memory.
l
Files
Files are created using Notes, Pocket Excel, Pocket Word, and other applications
and add-on programs. Files transferred from your desktop computer to the
CASSIOPEIA are also backed up.
l
The Registry
The registry contains setup data for Windows CE and built-in applications.
l
Database Data
Database data is Calendar, Contacts, Tasks, and Inbox data.
Password
Backed up data can be protected by a password. By assigning a password to backed
up data, you protect against unauthorized access because the data cannot be restored
unless the correct password is entered first.
Time Required for Backup
Depending on how much data you are backing up (or restoring), the backup operation
can take anywhere from about 10 seconds to a number of minutes. Backing up 4MB of
data, for example, takes three or four minutes. To check how much data is on your
system, tap , Settings, System tab and then Memory. On the dialog that
appears, tap the Main tab. The value under Storage indicates how much data is stored
in memory. See the Pocket PC User's Guide and CASSIOPEIA online help for more
information.
Important!
The restore operation can take a very long time if you do not have enough storage
memory allocated. When this happens, quit the restore operation, increase the size of
the storage memory, and then try the restore operation again.

Using Card Backup Tool
This section provides details about the backup and restore operations you can perform
using Card Backup Tool. Be sure to read the following precautions before using Card
Backup Tool for either backup or restore.
Read this first!
l
Always reset your CASSIOPEIA before backing up or restoring data. Make sure
you perform a reset operation. Do not perform a full reset operation! See the
separate Hardware Manual for information about how to reset your CASSIOPEA.
l
Be sure to power your CASSIOPEIA with the AC adapter whenever performing a
backup or restore operation.
l
If main battery or backup battery power is low when you start a backup or restore
operation, a warning message appears and the backup or restore operation is
cancelled. Before starting a backup or restore operation, charge the battery pack or
load new batteries.
l
Do not perform any button or screen operations on the CASSIOPEIA while a
backup or restore operation is in progress. Do not touch the CASSIOPEIA at all
until the backup or restore operation is complete.
l
Files and other data are automatically compressed before being stored in
CASSIOPEIA memory. Make sure the memory card you are using for backup has
enough unused space to store the data.
