Make sure you connect to AC power to charge as soon as you
see a backup battery low warning. Continue to charge until
the backup battery level is “good” (check the Status tab of the
Power panel; see the Using the Status tab section in chapter
3).
Do NOT replace your main battery when the backup battery is
low.
Connecting the travel cable and AC adapter
You can operate the HP Jornada on AC power using the AC
adapter. The AC adapter accepts voltages from 100 V to 240 V, so
you can use it anywhere in the world. However, you may need a
plug adapter to accommodate different electrical outlets.

Because the data and files you save on the HP Jornada are
stored in RAM, it is extremely important that you maintain a
continuous power supply to the HP Jornada at all times. If the
HP Jornada runs out of power, all information you have entered
is lost. Although the Windows CE operating system and
programs are stored in ROM and cannot be erased, any custom
settings and programs you have added are lost.

When taking out the main battery, keep in mind that when
the P/PC is without power, data retention is guaranteed for
only 1 minute, and only if the backup battery level is “good”
(check the Status tab of the Power pane l ; s ee the Using theStatus tab section in chapter 3). You do not need to take out
the main battery except to replace it with a spare battery
(F1287A).
The HP Jornada uses a rechargeable lithium-ion battery, which
supplies power whenever the P/PC is not connected to AC power.
Under normal operating conditions, the battery should last for up
to 6 hours of continuous use without recharging. Battery life
varies, however, depending on how you use the P/PC.

Messages in the Outbox folder on your P/PC are also transferred
to Exchange or Outlook, and then sent from those programs.
The messages on the two computers are linked, so when you
delete a message on your P/PC, it is also deleted from your
desktop computer the next time you synchronize.
Synchronizing channel information
During synchronization, channel information (Web content) is
copied to your P/PC. It can be viewed either from Channels or on
your Active Desktop as a mobile desktop component, depending
on the channel format you have subscribed to. See the UsingChannels and Displaying mobile desktop components
sections in chapter 7 for more information.
Resolving synchronization conflicts
If the same item (for example, an appointment or a task) has
been modified on both the desktop PC and on the HP Jornada,
ActiveSync indicates that a synchronization conflict has occurred.
To resolve a synchronization conflict
1.When an alert informs you that there are unresolved
items, on the Tools menu of the ActiveSync window,

Using Channels
Using ChannelsUsing Channels
A channel (or mobile channel) is a Web site or other Webformatted content that is available for offline viewing on your
P/PC. Channels allows Internet, intranet, or other Webformatted content to be automatically downloaded to your P/PC
from your desktop computer via s y nchronization. For mor e
information on synchronizing channels, see ActiveSync Help on
the desktop computer and see the Synchronizing data section
in chapter 6.
Content can be updated on a regular basis, such as updates from
a news channel, or on a one-time basis, such as movie listings
from an entertainment channel.
Channels and automatic updates to them are managed on the
desktop computer by Internet Explorer 4.0 or higher. Use
Internet Explorer on your desktop computer to view channels
offline.
Requirement for mobile channels support
• Microsoft Internet Explo rer 4.0 or higher
Internet Explorer 5.0 is included on the Desktop Software for
Microsoft Windows CE compact disk. Internet Explorer 5.0
Page 62
56 Hewlett-Packard Jornada 430/430se Palm-size PC
requires 56 to 98 MB of hard disk space and a 486/66 or higher
processor. Service Pack 3 or higher is required for Windows NT
systems (also included on the CD).
Getting started with channels

Adjusting memory
If your P/PC runs out of memory while recording, you hear
several beeps and see an out-of-memory message on your screen.
You can adjust the allocation of memory on your P/PC by tapping
Start, Settings, System, and then the Memory tab.
If you run out of memory frequently, use a CompactFlash
Memory Card for storing files that you rarely need. For more
information on CompactFlash Memory Cards, see the Insertingand Removing CompactFlash Cards section in chapter 10.
To save a recording to a CompactFlash card
1.Tap the Tools menu, and then tap Options.
2.On the General tab, tap the Save to storage card
check box, and then tap OK.
Voice Recorder uses approximately 300 bytes per second for
recording, using the Mobile Voice format. For example, a 10second note uses approximately 3K.
Choosing a recording format
You can record your voice in either the PCM or Mobile Voice
format. PCM format is the default format.
PCM files are larger than Mobile Voice files, but they sound
better. Mobile Voice files are compre ssed and approximately 25
times smaller than the original size. This enables you to store
more recordings, although the sound quality is less than optimal.
To switch between the PCM and Mobile Voice formats, tap Tools
and then tap Recording Format.
Your recordings are saved as .wav files, which you can transfer to
your desktop computer for playback, editing, and archiving. You
need desktop software that can play .wav files, and you need the
same codec used to make the recording. You can get the Mobile
Voice codec by installing ActiveSync (see the Installing
Page 91
Chapter 9 | Managing information and calculations| 85
ActiveSync section in chapter 6) or go to the following Web site:
www.microsoft.com/windowsce/info/.
If you want to e-mail your recording from your P/PC, use the
PCM file format.
Organizing recordings
Your recordings are saved automatically and given the names
Recording1, Recording2, and so on, by default. These
recordings are listed in the Voice Recorder window.
To quickly rename a recording
1.Tap the recording to select it.
2.Tap it again, and then enter the new name.
You can organize your recordings by renaming them and placing
them in folders. For example, you can create a folder called My
Novel and place all relevant recordings in that f older.
If you display recordings for a particular folder in the Voice
Recorder window, any new recordings you make while that folder
is selected are placed in that folder. They are given the folder
name and an incremental number (My Novel1, My Novel2, and
so on).
Backing up and restoring data
Backing up and restoring data
Backing up and restoring dataBacking up and restoring data
To prevent loss of data, you should back up the HP Jornada data
frequently. You can back up the HP Jornada two convenient
ways:
• Use ActiveSync to back up all data to your desktop PC.
Page 92
86 Hewlett-Packard Jornada 430/430se Palm-size PC
• Use the HP backup application to back up all data or only
Calendar, Task, and Contact (PIM) databases to internal
memory or a CompactFlash Card.
Using ActiveSync Backup at your PC
The ActiveSync Backup feature creates a complete duplicate of
all data stored on the HP Jornada. If you routinely connect to
your desktop PC, this is the best method of data backup. The
backup file is saved on the hard disk of your desktop PC.
When you restore data from a backup file created by ActiveSync,
all data on the HP Jornada is replaced by the data in the backup
file, including files you have created, programs you have
installed, and any system settings and options you have set.
To access the ActiveSync Backup feature, click Backup/Restore
on the Tools menu in the ActiveSync window.
Using HP backup
HP backup provides a convenient way to back up data while you
are traveling or while you are away from your desktop PC. You
can back up the information to a CompactFlash Card for secure
storage. You can also back up data to a folder on the HP Jornada.
However, this does not preserve the information if you lose power
or need to perform a full reset.
The backup file (.dbe or .dbb) is always placed in the My
Documents directory. When saving to a CompactFlash Card, a
My Documents directory is automatically created.
To back up data
1.On the Start menu, tap Settings, and tap HP backup.
2.Tap Backup, and then choose one of the backup options:
•Select Backup all data to back up all information
stored in RAM, including files you have created,
programs you have installed, and any system
settings and options you have set.
•Select Backup PIM databases to back up only
your Contacts, Tasks, and Calendar databases.
Page 93
Chapter 9 | Managing information and calculations| 87
3.Follow the instructions on your screen to complete the
backup process.
To restore from a backup file
1.On the Start menu, tap Settings, and tap HP backup.
2.Tap Restore.
3.Tap either Restore all data or Restore PIMdatabases.
4.Select the backup file you want to restore, and then tap
OK.
The HP Jornada must have the same regional settings when
you restore as you had when you completed the backup.
Otherwise, you cannot restore the files. To change regional
settings, on the Start menu, tap Settings, and then tap
Regional Settings.
