Learning about HP JornadaLearning about HP Jornada

Hewlett-Packard has taken mobile computing to new levels of
compatibility and convenience. With HP Jornada, you will notice
many benefits not found in other, similar computers. For
example, you can:

· Move the data you already have on an older palmtop or
handheld PC to your HP Jornada. You can transfer
information from older Windows CE devices and even some
non-Windows CE devices. (See the Transferring PIM data
from older palmtop PCs section in
Appendix B.)

· Use e-mail without a modem. Conveniently send e-mail
automatically when you synchronize with your desktop PC.
(See the Synchronizing data section in chapter 3.)

· Take more data with you. A desktop Microsoft Word file may
take up to 85 percent less space on your HP Jornada. (See
the Transferring files section in chapter 3.)

· Send voice messages to friends and colleagues—even those
who do not have H/PC 2000 devices. You can save voice

Recording voice memos section in chapter 4.)

· Keep Word, Access, and Excel files stored at work and at
home synchronized. Update any file in any location, and once
you synchronize, the file will be updated in every place it is
stored. (See the Synchronizing data section in chapter 3.)

· Read online news and information while offline, or download
Web pages for viewing later. (See the Browsing the Web
section in Chapter 6.)

· Work any time, any place, with up to 9 hours of battery life.
(See the Managing battery power section in chapter 7.)

· Synchronize mail messages, contacts, appointments, and
tasks with your desktop or notebook PC in just a few steps.
(See the Synchronizing data section in chapter 3.)

· Carry your HP Jornada with you. The HP Jornada weighs
only 510 g (1.1 lb.), including batteries.

· Expand your functionality with PC Card accessories.
(See the Accessories section in chapter 7.)

HP Jornada is your mobile computing companion. Several
valuable features allow you to stay organized and in touch while
you are on the road. For instance:

· The HP Jornada viewer application displays PIM data
(contacts, calendar, and tasks) at a glance, allowing you to
navigate to or view the data you need immediately. You
can even view notes attached to appointments.

· The HP Jornada dialup application leads you through
the steps required to configure a dial-up connection and
to access your e-mail and the Web. When you are ready to
connect, just use the convenient dialup window on your
HP Jornada desktop.

· The HP Jornada quick pad provides a convenient place to
jot down notes, names, telephone numbers, and other data
for short-term storage. Information can be saved in quick
pad for fast retrieval or sent to the appropriate database
for long-term storage.

· The HP Jornada backup application can back up and
restore information to/from an optional CompactFlash

16 HP Jornada 700 Series Handheld PC

Setting up your HP Jornada

Follow the steps in this section to start using your
HP Jornada for the first time. As part of the setup process,
you will connect the ac power adapter, install the main
battery, install the backup battery, and complete the MS
Windows for H/PC 2000 Welcome Wizard. To set up your
HP Jornada, you will need to have your HP Jornada, the ac
adapter, the HP Jornada Standard Battery, the backup
battery (attached to the Quick Start Card), and the power
cable.

Follow these steps in the order they are presented. Do not
install the backup battery before connecting ac power and
installing the main battery.

Connecting the ac adapter

To avoid running out of battery power, you can operate your HP
Jornada on ac power using the supplied ac adapter. The ac
adapter accepts 100 to 240 V, enabling you to connect to ac power
anywhere in the world. When you travel, you may need adapters
to accommodate different electrical outlets, but the HP Jornada
ac adapter will safely convert ac line voltage to the dc voltage
required by your HP Jornada.

Use only the supplied ac adapter (model HP F1279B, input
specifications 100-240 V ac, 50-60 Hz, 1.5 A).

While your HP Jornada is connected to ac power, the main
battery is charged automatically. The color of the LED indicates
the status of the battery: Amber indicates that battery is
charging, and green indicates that the battery is fully charged.

Chapter 2 | Getting started | 17

The ac adapter components: dc plug, ac adapter, and

power cable.

To connect to ac power

1. Connect the cable from the ac adapter to the dc jack on
the right side of your HP Jornada.

2. Connect the power cable to the ac adapter.

3. Plug the power cable into an ac power outlet.

After you connect the ac adapter your HP Jornada will turn on
automatically. However, you should install the main battery
and install the backup battery before using your device.

Installing the main battery

The HP Jornada Lithium-Ion Battery provides power to your HP
Jornada while it is not connected to ac power. Under normal
operating conditions, the fully charged battery should provide
power for up to 9 hours of continuous use; however, battery life
will vary depending on how you use your HP Jornada.

18 HP Jornada 700 Series Handheld PC

Rechargeable Lithium-Ion batteries, unlike NiCD and NiMH
batteries, are not subject to "memory effect," allowing you to
fully recharge your batteries at any time regardless of battery
power level.

The main battery fits into the bottom of your HP Jornada, as
shown in the following diagram.

This bottom view of the HP Jornada shows how to install

the main battery.

To install the main battery

· Place the main battery in the battery slot on the bottom of

your HP Jornada and push firmly until it snaps into place.

The main battery should be partially charged when removed from
the box. However, you should charge the main battery fully
before operating your HP Jornada on battery power. Charging
the main battery takes approximately 3.5 hours. When the
battery is fully charged, charging stops automatically; the battery
will not overcharge if left connected to ac power.

When the main battery charge is low, a low battery warning is
displayed. If you see a low battery warning message
displayed, connect ac power and charge your main battery
immediately to avoid draining your backup battery, and
possible data loss.

Do not mutilate, puncture, or dispose of batteries in fire. The
batteries can burst or explode, releasing hazardous chemicals.
Replace batteries only with the types recommended in this
User’s Guide. Discard used batteries according to the
manufacturer’s instructions.

Installing the backup battery

The backup battery protects your data when the main battery
runs out of power. The backup battery does not provide enough
power to operate your HP Jornada, but it will preserve your data
while you replace the main battery or while you connect to ac
power to recharge. The 3-V CR2032 coin-cell backup battery is
attached to the HP Jornada Quick Start Card. Follow the
procedure outlined below to install the backup battery.

To prevent loss of data, replace the backup battery as soon as a
warning message appears on your screen indicating that
backup battery power is low. (For detailed instructions on
replacing the backup battery, see the Managing battery
power section in chapter 7.)

To install the backup battery

1. Remove the backup battery from the HP Jornada Quick
Start Card.

2. Turn the Jornada upside-down and open the
CompactFlash door.

3. Use the tip of the stylus to carefully open the backup
battery cover.

4. Insert the battery printed side up in the battery
compartment.

5. Using the stylus tip, close the backup battery cover to
secure the coin-cell battery, and then close the
CompactFlash door.

Using the stylus and touch screen

Use the stylus in much the same way you would use a mouse to
navigate and select objects on screen. You can also use your
fingertip to tap the touch screen, but the stylus provides the
greatest accuracy.

For convenience, the stylus is stored in the stylus slot on the
front of the HP Jornada. To remove the stylus, push on the stylus
to release the catch as you slide it out of the slot.

The top of the stylus pops up to make it easy to remove the
stylus. Pressing the top has no effect on the stylus function.

To navigate by using the stylus, follow these tips:

· Where you would normally click a mouse, simply tap the
stylus on the touch screen to select an icon or activate a
button.

Following the Welcome Wizard

After you install the main battery, your HP Jornada will turn on
automatically. At startup, the Hewlett-Packard welcome screen
appears. Then, after a few moments, the MS Windows for H/PC
2000 Welcome Wizard begins. The Welcome Wizard presents a
brief orientation that helps you to calibrate the touch screen and
configure device settings such as the World Clock and Owner
Identification.

Before you begin working, you may need to adjust the brightness
and contrast of the display to compensate for different lighting
conditions and viewing angles. You can use the keyboard to
adjust both contrast and brightness.

If your HP Jornada freezes during operation, you may need to
perform a soft reset. To reset, use the stylus to press the reset
button located on the left side of the HP Jornada keyboard.
Your HP Jornada will restart automatically. Unsaved data in
any open documents will be lost. For more information, see the
Resetting section in chapter 8.

Calibrating the touch screen

Before you can use the stylus to navigate, you must calibrate the
touch screen to align the image on the screen with the touch­sensitive coating. The first screen of the Welcome Wizard
prompts you to calibrate the touch screen by tapping a series of
targets at different locations on the screen.

From time to time, you might notice that the accuracy of your
stylus tap diminishes. When this happens, you can return to this
screen to calibrate your touch screen.

Turning your HP Jornada on and off

One of the most convenient features of MS Windows for H/PC
2000 and HP Jornada is “instant on.” With instant on, there is no
waiting for HP Jornada to start up or shut down; you can start
working immediately by pressing the On/Off key on the upper
right corner of the keyboard. When you are finished, turn off your
HP Jornada by pressing the On/Off key or by tapping Suspend
on the Start menu. Turning off your HP Jornada simply
suspends operation. When you turn it on again, you can resume
working.

You can also set options in the Power control panel to turn your
HP Jornada on and off automatically. For example, you can set
your HP Jornada to turn on when you tap the touch screen with
the stylus. To conserve battery power, you can set HP Jornada to
auto-suspend or to turn itself off after a preset period of
continuous idle time. By default, your HP Jornada will auto­suspend after 3 minutes while running on battery power. (For
more information on these options and tips for conserving battery
power, see the Managing battery power section in chapter 7.)

If the HP Jornada wakes up from a suspended state and there
is no user activity for one minute, the Jornada will return to a
suspended state. To avoid this, simply use any of the Jornada's
functions or programs within the one-minute interval.

Using the HP Jornada keyboard

To provide full functionality in a smaller size, the HP Jornada
keyboard lets you accomplish common tasks with a few
convenient key combinations:
