Introduction: Using Menus

Using Menus and Menu Commands

Menus on your handheld are easy to use and work the same way in all applications. Menu bars and manual commands differ based on the application and the area of the application in which you’re working. For example, in the Memo Pad, the Memo List screen and the Memo screen display different menus.

Menu commands for each application are described in the corresponding application’s chapter, with the exception of the Edit menu. For information on Edit menu commands, see “Using the Edit Menu” in Chapter 5.

Most menu commands have an equivalent Grafﬁti

2 command stroke, which is similar to keyboard shortcuts used to execute

commands on computers. To use Grafﬁti 2 menu commands, menus must be closed.

To display a menu bar and choose a command:

1. Do one of the following:

• Open an application (such as the Date Book); then tap the

Menu icon. Select the desired command from the

menu.

• Tap the inverted tab in the upper left corner of the screen. Tap the desired command from the menu.

• In the text input area of your device’s screen, drag a diagonal line from the lower left to upper right to display the Command toolbar. The command bar displays for approximately 4 seconds.

2. Tap the icon that represents the command you want, or enter the shortcut for the command in the text input area below the Command toolbar. For example, to choose Select All in the Edit menu, draw the Grafﬁti 2 command stroke in the text area to display the Command toolbar and then draw the letter S. Note that if you wait more than three seconds to draw the shortcut letter, you will have to redraw the Grafﬁti 2 command stroke to redisplay the Command toolbar.

Introduction: Palm™ Desktop Software

PALM™ DESKTOP SOFTWARE

Palm Desktop software includes the same main applications as your iQue Memo Pad and desktop e-mail connectivity. You can use the HotSync between your handheld and your computer.

It’s a good idea to frequently back up your data in case something happens to the data on your iQue handheld. Changes you make on your iQue handheld or Palm Desktop software appear in both places after you synchronize.

Using the Palm Desktop software, you can do the following:

• Work with your iQue handheld applications on your computer. Palm Desktop software duplicates the Date Book, Address Book, To Do List, and Memo Pad applications on your handheld, so that you can view, enter, and modify any data stored on your handheld.

• Back up the data stored on your handheld with HotSync technology and synchronize the data on your Palm Desktop software. Synchronization is a one-step procedure that ensures your data is always safe and up-to-date. See

Updating Data using HotSync Operations” in Chapter 9 for more information.

• Import and export data, so you can easily transfer data from other desktop applications into any of your main applications. See “Importing Data” in Chapter 2 for more information.

• Print your Date Book, Address Book, To Do List, and Memo Pad information on any printer.

Connecting the Cradle

The cradle that comes with your iQue handheld enables you to synchronize the information on your iQue handheld with the

Palm Desktop software using HotSync technology.

To connect your cradle on a PC-compatible computer:

1. Plug the cable from the iQue handheld cradle into an available USB port on your computer.

NOTE: Your iQue handheld requires a dedicated port. It cannot share a port with an internal modem or other device. If you are unsure about the exact location of the USB port on your computer, refer to the manual supplied with the computer.

Upgrade Information

If you do not own another Palm™ Powered device, you may go on to “Installing Palm Desktop Software” on the next page. If you already own Palm Powered device, Garmin recommends that you install the version of Palm Desktop Software that comes with your new handheld into the same folder as your current Palm Desktop software. All of your data is preserved when you install the new version in the same folder as the previous version. If you use another Personal Information Manager (PIM) such as Microsoft

Outlook, you still must install the most recent HotSync

Manager and conduit software for your PIM from the Setup CD that came

with your new handheld. You can perform HotSync operations on your new device in exactly the same way as you did on your old handheld, allowing you to quickly synchronize your existing data with your new handheld.

NOTE: If you used security features (password protection, for example) on your old Palm Powered device, you must upgrade to the most current desktop. The method of storing passwords has changed with the latest release of the desktop. Therefore, your password-protected information will not be synchronized if you do not upgrade.

To upgrade your handheld:

1. Synchronize your old handheld with your old Palm Desktop software to ensure that the latest information from your handheld is on your desktop computer.

2. (Optional) To prevent data loss, go to the folder that stores the Palm Desktop software, copy the folder and its contents, rename it (for example, Palm Backup), and store the copy outside the Palm Desktop software folder.

3. Follow the instructions in “Installing Palm Desktop Software” on the following page. Make sure you install the new software in the same folder as the old software.

4. During iQue installation, when you are asked which user name you wish to use to perform your HotSync operation, select New. Create a unique user name that you can easily differentiate from your previous handheld’s user name. Each handheld must have a unique name in order to prevent complications and unexpected results during HotSync operations.

5. Place your new handheld in the cradle and press the

HotSync button. If the Select User dialog box appears, select

your new user name.

NOTE: If you customized the modem setup on your old handheld, you must re-enter the modem initialization string. Any passwords that you set on your old handheld are not restored during this HotSync operation, and will need to be re-assigned. Records you previously marked Private remain marked Private but you need to reenter a password on your new handheld.

ENTERING DATA USING GRAFFITI 2 HANDWRITING SOFTWARE

You can use Grafﬁti 2 strokes to create letters, numbers, punctuation, and symbols. The Grafﬁti 2 writing strokes include all

letters, numbers, and symbols found on a standard keyboard.

Learning to Write Grafﬁti 2 Characters

With only a few minutes of practice, you’ll ﬁnd it easy to enter accurate text and numbers using Grafﬁti 2 writing strokes.

Grafﬁti 2 handwriting is new to this Palm Powered software found on earlier Palm Powered handhelds. For example, some characters can be formed using a variety of letter shapes, and some characters are formed using more than one stroke to form a single character.

The Grafﬁti 2 demo shows how to use the handwriting software. The ﬁrst time you turn on your handheld or perform a hard reset, the Welcome application will automatically guide you through the setup process. When you complete setup, the iQue invites you to learn how to use the handwriting software.

General Guidelines for Grafﬁti 2 Writing

Follow these guidelines to learn and use Grafﬁti 2 writing strokes successfully:

• To achieve 100% accuracy, practice drawing characters exactly as they appear in the tables later in this chapter.

• The heavy dot on each shape indicates where to start the stroke. Some characters have similar shapes, but different starting and ending points. Always start the stroke at the heavy dot. (Do not draw the heavy dot; it is there only as a guideline.)

• The Grafﬁti 2 writing strokes for letters closely resemble letters of the standard English alphabet, both upper and lower case. Most characters require only a single stroke. When you lift the stylus from the text input area, your handheld recognizes and displays the text character immediately.

For multi-stroke characters, a temporary character is displayed after the ﬁrst stroke, to show that the stroke was recognized.

For example, after the ﬁrst vertical stroke of “t”, a temporary ”l” is shown. There is a short time delay, during which the second stroke must be drawn. Otherwise the temporary stroke is recorded.

NOTE: Rather than making uppercase letters by using the Shift stroke, uppercase letters are made in the center of the text input area. This will be discussed in more detail later.

• The text input area is divided into two parts, one for writing lowercase letters and one for writing numbers. The small marks at the top and bottom of the text input area deﬁne the division line. To have your handheld recognize letters and numbers, you must begin letter strokes on the left side, and number strokes on the right side of the text input area. Uppercase letters are formed by writing across the division line.

Write lowercase letters here

Write uppercase letters across the division line

Write numbers here

To write Grafﬁti 2 letters:

1. Tap the screen where you want to write text, for example, on a line next to a time in the Date Book.

Blinking cursor

NOTE: A blinking cursor must appear on-screen above the Grafﬁti 2 writing area before you can begin writing text.

2. Use the tables on the following pages to ﬁnd the stroke shape for the letter you want to write. For example, the stroke shown below creates the letter n.

Lift stylus here

Start stroke at heavy dot

You use the same shape to create both the lowercase letter in the left hand side of the text input area, and the up-

percase letter across the division line.

3. Position the stylus in the left hand side of the text input area.

4. Start your stroke at the heavy dot, and draw the stroke shape as it appears in the tables.

5. Lift the stylus from the screen at the end of the stroke shape.

6. Your handheld recognizes your stroke immediately and displays the letter at the on-screen insertion point. As soon as you lift the stylus from the screen, you can begin the stroke for the next character you want to write.

Grafﬁti 2 Tips

When using Grafﬁti 2 writing, keep the following tips in mind:

• For greater accuracy, draw letters with large strokes; strokes that nearly ﬁll the text input area are easily interpreted.

• To delete characters, set the insertion point to the right of the character you want to delete, and draw the Backspace stroke (a line from right to left) in the text input area.

• Write at natural speed. Writing too slowly can produce errors.

• Do not write at a slant. Keep vertical strokes parallel to the sides of the text input area.

• When letters and numbers can be written using two different strokes, use the one that’s easiest for you.

• Press ﬁrmly.

The Grafﬁti 2 Alphabet

Draw Grafﬁti 2 letters according to the following alphabet.

Writing Capital Letters

Grafﬁti 2 writing automatically capitalizes the ﬁrst letter of a new record or sentence. To write additional capital letters, use the

same character stroke used for a lowercase letter, but write across the division line.

Write uppercase letters across the division line

Writing Numbers

To write numbers using Grafﬁti 2 strokes, draw in the right side of the text input area. Draw numbers using the following

strokes.

Writing Punctuation Marks and Other Special Characters

Using Grafﬁti 2 writing, you can create any punctuation symbol and special character available on any standard keyboard.

The period and comma punctuation marks can be written on either side of the text input area (the letter or number side). Other common punctuation marks can be written on one side of the text input area according to the chart below (in general, the more frequently used punctuation is on the left side).

2.5Chapter 2 Entering Data

Page 36

Entering Data: Grafﬁti® 2

Writing Accent Marks

When writing letters with accent marks, ﬁrst write the letter stroke on the left side (or in the center for uppercase letters) of the input area. Then quickly write the accent stroke on the right side of the input area. The accent strokes appear in the following illustration.

Writing Symbols and other Special Characters

Symbols and other special characters can be written using the Shift command. When you make a vertical stroke from the bottom to the top in the text input area, the Shift indicator arrow appears in the lower right corner of the screen. While this arrow is visible, you can make the punctuation shift characters shown in the following illustration. Once the arrow goes away, the punctuation mark appears.

TIP: Using an additional Shift stroke to ﬁnish writing the character (as shown in the demo) is optional, but will

make the character appear more quickly.

Draw punctuation and symbols using the punctuation shift command and the following strokes:

Note that the punctuation characters are repeated as punctuation shift characters, where they can be entered on either side of the text input area. Even though this requires an additional shift stroke, you may ﬁnd it more convenient, since you don’t have to remember on which side of the input area to make the stroke.

TIP: Samples of the character strokes are available in the Grafﬁti® 2 Help ﬁle. To view the Help ﬁle, use the

full-screen pen stroke, dragging the stylus from the text input area to the top of the screen. Note that the accented characters appear on a Punctuation Shift screen, but do not use the Shift command. To write uppercase accented characters, write the letter across the division mark, just as you would do with an ordinary letter.

Gestures are editing commands, such as cut, paste, and the ShortCut command which will be explained in the next section. To use gestures, draw the following strokes:

Using Grafﬁti 2 ShortCuts

Grafﬁti 2 ShortCuts let you quickly and easily enter commonly used words or phrases. ShortCuts are similar to the Glossary or Autotext features of some word processors. Grafﬁti 2 writing comes with several predeﬁned ShortCuts. You can also create your own, for any words, letters, or numbers.

You can create ShortCuts, with up to 45 characters, using the ShortCut preferences. For example, you could create a ShortCut for your name or for the header of a memo. All ShortCuts you create appear on the list in the ShortCut Preferences screen, are available in any of your handheld applications, and are backed up on your computer when you perform a HotSync

operation.

Your handheld includes the following predeﬁned Grafﬁti 2 ShortCuts for common entries:

• ds—Date stamp

• ts—Time stamp

• dts—Date/time stamp

4.6 Chapter 4 Using Basic Applications

Page 57

Date Book: Scheduling Events

Tips for Scheduling Repeating or Continuous Events

Keep the following in mind when scheduling repeating or continuous events:

• If you change the start date of a repeating event, your handheld calculates the number of days you moved the event. Your handheld then automatically changes the end date to maintain the duration of the repeating event.

• If you change the repeat interval (e.g., daily to weekly) of a repeating event, past occurrences (prior to the day on which you change the setting) are not changed, and your handheld creates a new repeating event.

• If you change the date of an occurrence of a repeating event (e.g., from January 14 to January 15) and apply the change to all occurrences, the new date becomes the start date of the repeating event. Your handheld adjusts the end date to maintain the duration of the event.

• If you change other repeat settings (for example, time, alarm, private) of a repeating event and apply the change to all occurrences, your handheld creates a new event. The start date of this new event is the day on which the setting is changed. Past occurrences (prior to the day of the change) are not changed.

• If you apply a change to a single occurrence of a repeating event (e.g., time), that occurrence no longer shows the Repeat icon.

Rescheduling Events

You reschedule events using the Details option in the Date Book. You can also use the Details option to convert untimed events

into timed events.

To reschedule an event:

1. Tap the event you want to reschedule.

2. Tap

Details.

Purging Records

Over time, as you use Date Book and the To Do List, you may accumulate records that are no longer useful. For example, events

that occurred months ago remain in the Date Book, and completed To Do List items remain in the list.

Outdated records take up memory on your handheld, so it’s a good idea to remove them by using Purge. If you think Date Book

or To Do List records might prove useful later, you can purge them from your handheld and save them in an archive ﬁle.

Purging is not available in Address Book or Memo Pad, so records from these applications must be deleted manually.

To purge a record:

1. Open the application from which you want to purge records.

2. Choose from the following options:

• Tap the Menu icon, open the Record menu, and then tap Purge. A conﬁrmation dialog box appears.

• For the Date Book or To Do list, select Save Archive Copy on PC

to save a copy of purged records in an archive ﬁle on your desktop. Selecting this option transfers purged records to an archive ﬁle the next time you perform a HotSync® operation. Tap OK.

Categorizing Records

You can categorize records in the Address Book, To Do List and Memo Pad applications for easy retrieval. (The Date Book does not have categories.) When you create a record, it is automatically assigned to the currently displayed category. For example, if the All category is displayed, the record is assigned to the Unﬁled category. A record can remain unﬁled or it can be assigned to a category at any time.

Each application has a default set of categories:

• The Address Book includes a Business, Personal, and QuickList category.

• The To Do List includes a Business, Personal, and All category.

• The Memo Pad includes a Business, Personal, and All category.

You can rename or delete the default categories, and you can create new categories. Each application can have up to 15 categories.

To move a record into a category:

Attention Manager

Chapter 6: Using the Attention Manager

Many applications (such as Date Book and Clock) want to get your attention with some sort of alarm. Attention Manager allows you to conveniently manage all of these notiﬁcations in one place. Appointments and messages can stack up while you are away from your device. Attention Manager lets you view them from a single list, where you can selectively dismiss or follow up on each event.

Applications will signal for your attention at two different levels: insistent and subtle. Each is discussed in detail in this Chapter.

INSISTENT ALARMS

Insistent applications open a Reminders dialog screen, and may play a sound, ﬂash an LED, or vibrate, depending on your hardware conﬁguration. Alarms continue until you snooze or dismiss them. If the sound can be interrupted, you can tap anywhere on the screen, or push any button to silence it. Attention Manager will always open immediately when new insistent alarms are posted.

Using the Reminder Dialog Screen

The Reminder dialog screen has three buttons for responding to an alarm:

• OK: Makes the reminder go away, with no further notiﬁcation.

• Snooze: Switches to the application that was running when the alarm went off, and returns to the Reminder dialog screen

after ﬁve minutes. You can go back to the Reminder dialog screen right away by tapping on the blinking indicator in the upper left corner of the screen. For more information, see “Understanding the blinking alarm indicator” below.

• Go To: Switches to the application that created the alarm, and shows the record that caused the alarm, although you may have to navigate within the application. There is no further notiﬁcation.

icon.

3. Set the volume using the Alarm Sound pick list. If your device has a vibrate or alarm LED feature, turn these features on or off using their pick lists in this menu.

Setting Alarm Sound Effects

Some applications allow you to set the song or sound effect to use, and how many times to play it, with a pause in between.

For example, to set alarm preferences for the Date Book:

1. While displaying the Date Book application, tap the

Menu icon.

3. Tap the Alarm Preset check box, if you want alarms to sound, then select the following from the pick lists:

• How soon you want the alarm to sound before the event

• The alarm song or sound effect (for example, Bird or Concerto)

• How many times the alarm repeats before giving up

• The pause between each time the alarm sounds

6.2 Chapter 6 Using the Attention Manager

Attention Manager

Using the Reminders List Screen

The Reminders dialog screen changes to a list of items that require your attention under two insistent alarm conditions:

• When a second application attempts to get your attention and the ﬁrst has not been dismissed or snoozed.

• When a ﬁrst application makes a second attempt and the ﬁrst has not been dismissed or snoozed.

Each listed reminder contains the date and time of the event. Depending on the application displaying the reminder, you may

see an icon representing the application, and up to two lines of text.

Tapping on the text or icon will “Go To” that item and delete the event from the Reminders list screen.

Tapping in the check box will clear that item, similar to a To Do list item. The Attention Manager will draw a line through the

text lines, pause for a moment, and them remove the item from the list, although the original data remains in the application.

The Reminders list screen displays three buttons that are used to respond to all of the items in the list:

• Done: If the Reminders list appeared because of more than one insistent alarm, tapping Done closes the Reminders list screen, although the events will remain in the application that created them. The Reminders list screen will not appear again, unless you tap the blinking alarm indicator in the menu bar.

• Snooze: Puts the Reminders list screen to sleep for ﬁve minutes. After this time interval, the Reminders list screen is displayed again. You can go directly to the Reminders list screen without waiting, by tapping on the blinking alarm indicator. For more detail, see “Understanding the blinking alarm indicator” below.

If the Reminders list appeared after you tapped the Snooze button, then tapped the blinking alarm indicator, then tapped the Done button, the reminder will continue to snooze. For more detail, see “Understanding the Blinking Alarm Indicator” on the following page.

• Clear All: Removes all of the items from the list, but does not close the Reminders screen. Tap this button to erase a list of events that have passed.

SUBTLE ALARMS

Some applications provide a visual, and optionally audible indication, but do not otherwise disrupt your work ﬂow. Subtle alarms do not display a Reminders screen. Instead, a blinking indicator will ﬂash in the upper left corner of the title bar (of applications that allow it) when an alarm is present.

Understanding the Blinking Alarm Indicator

A blinking alarm indicator appears in the upper left corner of the screen in the menu bar (of applications that allow it) under the following conditions:

• While viewing a Reminders dialog screen, you tap the Done or the Snooze button

• A subtle alarm is present

The indicator appears in three different states:

• Off: The indicator is not shown at all when the list is empty.

• Blinking, two states: When the list is not empty but there are no new items, then the “star” indicator will blink on and off until the list has been emptied.

• Blinking, three states: When a new subtle alarm is received, the star will alternate ﬂashing solid, exploded, then off, until you view the new event.

Blinking star

Tapping on the indicator opens the Attention Manager in list mode, even if there is only one item.

Chapter 7: Using an Expansion Card

The iQue® lets you add an SD (Secure Digital) expansion card or MMC (Multimedia Card) (not included). You can insert and remove a card any time without a reset. An expansion card allows you to backup data, increase memory size, or add games, reference materials or other additional software or ﬁles.

To insert an SD/MMC card in the iQue:

1. With the label facing the front of the unit, insert the card down into the card slot (as shown in the illustration above) until it clicks into place. The iQue automatically displays the contents of the card.

To remove an SD/MMC card from the iQue:

1. Make sure the iQue is not reading data from or writing to the card.

2. Gently push the SD card down into the slot, then release it so the card pops partially out of the slot.

3. Pull the card out of the iQue.

Displaying Contents of a Card

When an expansion card is inserted, all applications listed in the card’s launcher directory is automatically added to a new Launcher category. This category is assigned the name of the expansion card volume; for example, the name “Card” is used throughout this section.

To display the contents of your card:

1. Tap the tap the Applications category pick list in the upper right corner of the screen, then tap Card

2. The expansion card contents are displayed on the Applications menu. Sometimes the contents require a second dis play page. To display the additional applications, tap the scroll bar.
