May I introduce myself?

My name is Pocket LOOX 610. I am part of the Pocket PC fam i l y, also called handhelds.
I'm sure you'v e al ready noticed that I' m flat, handy and light-weight. Now I'd like to draw your

attention to my extens ive, diverse capabilities.
I am equipped with the Off i ce applications MS-Word, Excel and Outlook - naturally al l i n the Pocket

version. In Outlook you can not onl y receive and send e-mails, you can also manage y our
appointments and let m e rem i nd your of the things you hav e to do. Of course, y ou can also enter
your address list i n me so that you can access names (e-mail) addresses and telephone numbers
when you're on the go. You can ent er notes in me in writing or v erbal l y as with a dictaphone.
Memory cards, whi ch you can buy in various sizes, ensure that I can also reliabl y hold and retain
large amounts of data.

In the office y ou can then effortlessly transfer all y our data and newly created document s to your
notebook or PC. To do this, just insert me i n m y cradle, install ActiveSync on y our PC and you're
ready to synchronise your data. In additi on, a short stay in the cradle also gives me new power, as
my battery will be charged while I'm t here. If you don't have your cradle at hand, for example in a
hotel room, it doesn' t matter. You can s ynchronise your data usi ng the ActiveSy nc cable via the
infrared interface or wit h BLUETOOTH, and you can charge my battery with the power adapt er.

And since life i sn't all work and no play, I offer you additional f unctions as well. Y ou can read your
favourite book quit e comfortably on my di splay or use me as an MP 3 pl ayer. Insert the mem ory card
of your digital cam era i n the suitable card slot and you can view the photos you just took on m y
display.

Have you already notic ed that I provide you wit h t wo slots? You can use di f ferent cards at the s am e
time. And how about the combination memory card and GSM/GPRS CompactF l ash card? Or you
can combine two memory cards for maxim um memory capacity .

With BLUETOOTH, the inf rared i nterface and the integrated Wirel ess LAN (depending on the
model), you can also connect to other devices in your offic e and on the go without bothersome
cables. For example, thanks to BLUETOOTH you can take me into the Internet without cables with
your BLUETOOTH-capable cell phone. Naturally, I als o have the Pocket Internet Explorer ready for
you. With it y ou can visit both webs i t es and WAP sites.

Incidentally, if you install a GS M /GPRS CompactFlas h card in me I am completel y autonomous
when it comes to I nternet and data connections : send your emails, carry out research in the net or
synchronise y our data (e.g. via XTND Connect), regardless of where you are at the moment.

For long hours far from a power connec tion and cradle, I can warml y recommend the Main Bat t ery
XL (also available as an accessory). I n conjunction with the M a i n B attery XL, I can offer you up to
24 hours of battery runti m e, depending on your preferred applicati ons.

Actuate full reset switch

The first time y ou start your Pocket LOOX 610, you must ac tuate the full reset switch. The full reset
switch is on the back of the Pock et LOOX and is covered by the battery during normal operation.

Only actuate the f ul l reset switch during the i ni tial start-up. To switch the Pocket PC on or

off after the initial start-up, brief l y press the Suspend button.
If the full reset switch is used to shut down the Pocket LOOX 610, this reset s it back to

the delivery st ate and the entire RAM content s are lost. This means you loose all data
(documents, addit i onal l y installed programs, personal settings) t hat you haven't saved
elsewhere.

Therefore, remember to make a regul ar data backup with synchronisation (see the
"Synchronisi ng dat a wi th ActiveSync" chapter) or on corres pondi ng m em ory cards
(available as an accessory). The FSC Backup program i s provided on your Pocket LOOX
610 for completely backing up the RAM memory on memory cards (see the "Backing up

Configuring Pocket LOOX 610

You can already choose from a large number of programs when you us e the Pocket PC for t he first
time. In addition, proven default sett i ngs are defined for the menu st ructure, energy management,
memory management and security functi ons.

But, of course, you can add and remove programs and configure the Pocket P C as desired.
This chapter shows you how to

• optimise t he energy management of your Poc ket PC

• configure the hardware buttons

• adjust the menus to your personal needs

• use the securi ty functions

• change the time and use the alarm functions

For information on removing and addi ng programs, please refer to t he documentation from the
software manufact urer and the ActiveSync help file, that you can call at any time after installing
ActiveSync on your notebook/PC.

We describe the confi gurat i on of the FSC SpeedMenu in the "Editing FS C SpeedMenu" chapter in this
manual and in the FSC SpeedMenu help on your Poc ket PC.

Optimising energy management

General information on energy management

The battery operating tim e i s considerably dependent on t he appl i cations used. Please consider that
a particularly large am ount of energy is required to play sound files or make s ound recordings.
Therefore, if you want t o work for several hours wit hout a power connection, lim i t the use of energy­intensive applic ations.

Data exchange with a PC or not ebook also consumes addi t i onal battery power. Therefore, alway s
connect your Poc ket PC to an electric al outlet during data exchange if possible.

We also recommend that you reduce the display bri ght ness to effect i vely save energy and therefore
appreciably increas e the time you can work with the battery.

Displaying battery status

Ê Touch Start.
Ê Select the Settings entry in the menu.
Ê Select the System tab.
Ê Tap the symbol Power.

In the Power control panel you can now read off the current battery status.
If the battery c harge lev el is very low, you will be warned with a dialog window during operation.

Then immediately connect your Pocket LOOX 610 to an electrical out l et .
If you do not immedi ately connect your P ocket PC to the mains power, the Pocket P C wi l l

automatically switch itself off. The data in the RAM memory remains intact for several hours.

A26391-K139-Z120-2-7619 47

Configuring Pocket LOOX 610

However, if the Pocket P C is still not connected to t he mains power during this period, all data that
is only in RAM (such as doc ument s, additionally installed programs, personal settings) will be lost.
In other words, your Pocket PC is reset to the delivery s t ate.

Using energy-saving functions

You can save energy in several ways to optimally utilise the battery charging time:

− Switch the P ocket PC into the S uspend mode when not in use.

Connecting and networking Pocket LOOX 610 with other devices

Wireless data transfer with infrared interface

The infrared interface (IrDA) on the left side of your Pocket PC provi des you with wireless serial data
transfer of up to 4 Mbits/s. In general, Fast Infrared is the interface of choice f or the fastest possible
data transfer rate of 4 M bi ts/s. However, should you notice diff iculties when exc hangi ng data with
slower devices, pl ease switch to the S low Infrared setting (115 k bi ts).

For data transfer, you m ust align the infrared int erf ace of your Pocket P C wi th that of the partner
device (e.g. PC). The devices must not be m ore t han one metre apart. The infrared interf ace of one
device must be in the range of influence (horizontally approx. 30 ° and vertically approx. 15 ° ) of the
infrared interface of the other device.

Run the program Infrared Receive under Programs on your Pocket PC. The Pocket PC immediately
begins to search for the partner device (infrared t rans mitter) and informs you on any infrared
interface found.

If the infrared partner dev i ce has not been found, point t he device in another directi on and then run
the program Infrared Receive again.

Wireless communication with BLUETOOTH (optional)

With your Pocket PC with an integrated BLUETOOTH™ modul e you can communicat e wi rel essly
with other BLUETOOTH devices, e.g. with anot her P ocket PC, a notebook or a m obi l e phone.

Your Pocket PC with integrated BLUETOOTH is a Power Class 2 device, i .e. it has a maxim um
range of 10 meters. The range of t he communication paths i s shortened depending on the user
environment (e.g. wall s or furniture), building s t ructure and output power class of the partner.

BLUETOOTH supports many functions (Services), e.g. accessing the Int ernet and transmitting or
receiving data or e-mail s.

In the following sections, you will find out how to put BLUETOOTH int o operation.
The help file for the sof tware on your Pocket LOOX 610 ex pl ai ns how you operate the software

concerned.

Connecting and networking Pocket LOOX 610 with other devices

Selecting location for BLUETOOTH operation

• We recommend that you use the Pocket PC with the BLUETOOTH component s in a typical

operating environment. Ot her BLUETOOTH devices, which you want to communicate with,
should be located at a distance of up to 10 m.

• Only instal l a partner device within the recommended distance. Observe the output power class

of the partner device when doi ng so. Details are contai ned i n the operating manual of the
partner device.

• Use the Pock et PC with the BLUETOOTH at l east 2 m away from other electrical or electronic

systems. If you must use the Pocket PC near a microwave cooker, then maint ai n a di stance of
at least 3 m from the microwave cooker, as the reception is s ubj ect to interference wi th regard
to microwaves.

• Should problems res ul t when communicating vi a B LUETOOTH because radios or radio

devices are locat ed i n the vicinity, then move the Pock et PC to a different loc ation.

Activating and deactivating BLUETOOTH

You can switch B LUE TOOTH on and off just as you wi sh. In this way y ou can also use your Pocket
PC in places where wireles s modules such as B LUETOOTH are not allowed, e.g. in hos pi tals and
aircraft (please also note the security information in the manual s "Security and Ergonom i cs" and
"Warranty"). In s uch places, sim pl y mark the BLUETOOTH signals on option. This will interrupt the
BLUETOOTH connection.
