May I introduce myself?
My name is Pocket LOOX 600. 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 c ard and W-LAN card? Or you can combine t wo memory cards for maximum memory capacity.
With BLUETOOTH, the inf rared i nterface and the slot f or your W-LAN card you can connec t to other devices in your of fice and on the go without bothersome cables. For exampl e, thanks to BLUETOOTH you can take m e i nto the Internet without cables with your BLUETOOTH-capable cell phone. Naturally, I al so have the Pocket Internet Explorer ready for you. With it you can vis i t both websites and WAP s i tes.
By the way, if you also strap the GSM/GPRS module (available as an accessory) ont o m y back, I become completely autonomous with regard to the Internet and telephone funct i ons. Send your e­mails, conduc t research on the Internet or make phone calls - regardless of where you are at the time.
For long hours far from a power connec tion and cradle, I can warml y recommend the second bat tery module (also available as an accessory). Together with it I offer you up to 24 hours of battery operating time.
But whether with or without ex pansion modules, you'll notice I'm fully willing and able to help you in a wide variety of s i tuations. Thanks t o the FSC SpeedMenu and the corresponding keys you can also operate me with one hand. Test my diversity! - This manual will help you do that!

Therefore, remember to make a regul ar data backup with synchronisation (see the chapter "Synchroni sing data with ActiveSync") or on corresponding memory cards (available as an accessory). The program LX Backup is provi ded on your Pocket LOOX 600 for completely backing up the RAM memory .

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.
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 supply control panel you can now read off the current bat tery 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 600 to an electrical out l et. Data that are only located in the RAM will be lost if the Pocket PC switches off c ompletely due to an insufficient power supply.

This Pocket PC with integrated BLUETOOTH is a Power Class 1 device, i.e. it has a maximum range of 100 meters. The range of the communication paths is shortened depending on the user environment (e.g. walls or furniture), building structure and output power class of the partner.
BLUETOOTH supports many functions (Services), e.g. wi rel ess printing of documents, access i ng the Internet and transmitting or receiving data or e-m ai l s.
In the following sections y ou will learn how to put BLUETOOTH into operation and how to operate the related software PocketPlugfree.
For further information pl ease refer to the online help of PocketPlugfree. Unfortunately, at t he t i me of going to print only the E ngl i sh designations for t he software and its components were available. Therefore, terms cont ai ned in the following sect i ons may differ from those that appear on your display.
Safety precautions when using BLUETOOTH
Switch off BLUETOOTH when you are in a hospital or near a medical electronics system, as the radio waves transmitted by the radio component m ay impair the operation of the medical devices.
Do not bring the Pocket LOOX 600 i nto an operating room with the radio c om ponent switched on, as the radio waves transm i tted by BLUETOOTH may im pai r the operation of medical electronic systems used there.
Keep Pocket LOOX 600 at l east 20 cm from a pacemaker with the radio components switched on, as otherwise the proper functioning of the pacemaker can be interfered with by t he radi o waves.
The radio waves transmitted by the radio component can cause an unpleasant humm i ng i n heari ng aids.
Switch off BLUETOOTH when you are in an aircraft or driving in a car. Do not bring the Pocket LOOX 600 near flammable gases or int o pot entially explosive atmospheres
with the radio component switched on (e.g. petrol station), as the radi o waves transmitted can cause an explosion or a fire.
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 30 m.
· Only install a partner device within the recommended distance. Observe the output power class
of the partner device when doing so. Details are contained in the operating manual of the partner device.
· Use the Pocket PC with the BLUETOOTH at least 2 m away from other electrical or electronic
systems. If you must use the Pocket PC near a microwave cooker, then maintain a distance of at least 3 m from the microwave cooker, as the reception is subject to interference with regard to microwaves.
· Should problems result when communicating via BLUETOOTH because radios or radio
devices are located in the vicinity, then move the Pocket PC to a different location.
