IntroductionChapter 1
If your computer shuts down because of low battery conditions, your com­puter does not operate. This is done to ensure that data is protected. Al­though the battery does protect the data against loss for several hours, you should connect your computer to a power source when you first detect a low battery condition.
Your computer contains an internal super capacitor, a temporary power storage device, that protects data for up to ten minutes. This is to give you time to replace the main battery pack before that data is lost. Be sure to put
the computer in a suspend mode before doing so.
If you have at least one device in your 700 Series Computer (radio, scan­ner, imager, or Ethernet), the battery power fail level is set so that after the system shuts down in a low battery condition, there is still sufficient charge to allow the unit to r emain configured, keep proper time, and maintain DRAM (Dynamic Random Access Memory) for at least 23 to 32 hours at room temperature if the main battery remains in the mobile computer. The configuration and time are lost if:
S The battery discharges beyond this level.
S The battery is removed when the computer is not in suspend mode.
S A cold reset is performed on the computer.
You can modify RAM maintenance in a limited way. On the 700 Com­puter, tap Start > Settings >theSystem tab>thePower icon > the Bat- tery tab. Drag the slider bar to the right to change the suspend voltage to favor suspend time over rundown time, then click ok to exit.

Tips for getting good recognition:
S Write neatly.
S Write on the lines and draw descenders below the line. Write the cross
of the “t” and apostrophes below the top line so they are not confused with the word above. Write periods and commas above the baseline.
S For better recognition, tr y increasing the zoom level to 300% by using
the Tools menu. Recognition does not work well below a 150% zoom level.
S Write the letters of a word closely and leave big gaps between words so
that the 700 Color Computer can easily tell where words begin and end.
S Hyphenated words, foreign words that use special characters such as ac-
cents, and some punctuation cannot be converted.
S If you add writing to a word to change it (such as changing a “3” to an
“8”) after you attempt to recognize the word, the writing you add is not included if you attempt to recognize the writing again.

S Keep Pocket Outlook data up-to-date by synchronizing your 700 Color
Computer with Microsoft Outlook data on your desktop.
S Synchronize Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel files between your
700 Color Computer and desktop. Your files are automatically con­verted to the correct format
Note: By default, ActiveSync does not automatically synchronize all types of information. Use ActiveSync options to turn synchronization on and off for specific information types.
With ActiveSync, you can also:
S Back up and restore your 700 Color Computer data.
S Copy (rather than synchronize) files between your 700 Color Computer
and desktop.
S Control when synchronization occurs by selecting a synchronization
mode. For example, you can synchronize continually while connected to your desktop or only when you choose the synchronize command.
S Select which information types are synchronized and control how much
data is synchronized. For example, you can choose how many weeks of past appointments you want synchronized.
Before you begin synchronization, install ActiveSync on your desktop from the Windows Mobile Companion CD. For more information on installing ActiveSync, see your Quick Start card. ActiveSync is already installed on your 700 Color Computer.
After installation is complete, the ActiveSync Setup Wizard helps you con­nectyour700ColorComputertoyourdesktop,setupapartnershipso you can synchronize information between your 700 Color Computer and your desktop, and customize your synchronization settings.

Synchronizing Notes
Notes can be synchronized between your desktop and device either through notes synchronization or file synchronization. Notes synchroniza­tion synchronizes the notes on your 700 Color Computer with Outlook Notes on your desktop. File synchronization synchronizes all notes on your700ColorComputerwiththeMyDocumentsfolderforthe700 ColorComputeronyourdesktop.
To synchronize your notes through notes synchronization, first select the Notes information type for synchronization in ActiveSync. The next time you synchronize, all notes in My Documents and its subfolder on your device appear in Outlook Notes on your desktop. Notes that contain only text appear as regular notes in Outlook on your desktop, while notes con­taining written text or drawings appear in the device format. In addition, all notes in the Notes group in Outlook on the desktop appear in Notes on the device.
To synchronize your notes as files, in ActiveSync, select the Files informa­tion type for synchronization and clear the Notes information type. When you select Files, the My Documents folder for the 700 Color Computer is created on your desktop. All .PWI files placed in the My Documents fold­er on your device and all .DOC files placed in the My Documents folder forthe700ColorComputeronyourdesktoparesynchronized.Password­protected files cannot be synchronized.
ActiveSync converts documents during synchronization. For more infor­mation on synchronization or file conversion, see ActiveSync Help on the desktop.
Note: When you delete or change an item on either your desktop or 700 Color Computer, the item is changed or deleted in the other location the next time you synchronize.
Note: If you synchronize your notes using file synchronization and then later decide to use notes synchronization, all of your notes are synchro­nized with Outlook on your desktop and no longer store in the My Docu­ments folder for the 700 Color Computer.

Inbox: Sending and Receiving E-mail Messages
To switch to Inbox on your 700 Color Computer, tap Start > Inbox. You can receive Internet e-mail messages and SMS messages in Inbox. In-
ternet e-mail messages are sent by using an address you receive fr om your Internet service provider (ISP) or your employer. SMS messages are sent and received through your wireless phone service provider by using a phone number as the message address.
You can send and r eceiv e e-mail by synchronizing with your desktop, or by connecting to a Post Office Protocol 3 (POP3) or Internet Message Ac­cess Protocol 4 (IMAP4) mail server. You need to set up an e-mail account for each method that you use except for Microsoft ActiveSync, which is set upbydefault.TheActiveSyncfolderonyour700ColorComputerstores messages that you send and receive through synchronization with a desk­top. Account names appear as folders in the f older list (located on the left, under the navigation bar) in the Inbox message list.
With synchronization, messages are synchronized between the device In­box and the PC Inbox by using ActiveSync and Microsoft Exchange or Microsoft Outlook. For more information, see “Synchronizing E-mail Mes- sages”below.
Windows Mobile 2003Chapter 2
When connecting to a POP3 or IMAP4 server, you use a modem to con­nect to your Internet service provider (ISP), or a modem or Ethernet card to connect to the local area network to which your e-mail server is connec­ted. You can also use your phone to connect by using a cellular line con­nection. For more information, see “Connecting to a Mail Server”onpage
75.
Synchronizing E-mail Messages
After selecting Inbox for synchronization in ActiveSync, e-mail messages are synchronized as part of the general synchronization process. During synchronization:
S Messages are copied from the Inbox folder on your desktop or the
Microsoft Exchange server to the Inbox folder on your 700 Color Com­puter. (Note that you can only synchronize inf ormation directly with an Exchange Server if your company is running Microsoft Mobile Infor­mation Server 2002 or later.) By default, you re ceive messages from the last three days only, the first 100 lines of each new message, and file at­tachmentsoflessthan100KBinsize.
S Messages in the Outbox folder on your device are transferred to Ex-
change or Outlook and then sent from those programs.
S The messages on the two computers are linked. When you delete a mes-
sage on your 700 Color Computer, it is deleted from your desktop the next time you synchronize.
S Messages in subfolders in other e-mail f olders in Outlook are synchro-
nized only if they were selected for synchronization in ActiveSync.
For information on initiating Inbox synchronization or changing synchro­nization settings, see ActiveSync Help on your desktop or select Start > Help > Connections to see Connections Help.

Windows Mobile 2003Chapter 2
Managing E-mail Messages and Folders
Each e-mail account and SMS account has its own folder hier archy with fivedefaultfolders:Inbox,Outbox,DeletedItems,Drafts,andSentItems. The messages you receive and send through the mail account are stored in these folders. You can also create additional folders within each hierarchy. The Deleted Items folder contains messages that were deleted on the de­vice. The behavior of the Deleted Items and Sent Items folders depends on the Inbox options you have chosen.
The behavior of the folders you create depends on whether you are using ActiveSync,SMS,POP3,orIMAP4.
S If you use ActiveSync,
e-mail messages in the Inbox folder in Outlook automatically synchro­nize with your device. You can select to synchronize additional folders by designating them for ActiveSync. The folders you create and the messages you move are then mirrored on the server. For example, if you movetwomessagesfromtheInboxfoldertoafoldernamedFamily, and you have designated Family for synchronization, the server creates a copy of the Family folder and copies the messages into that folder. You can then read the messages while away from your desktop.
S If you use SMS,
messages are stored in the Inbox folder.
S If you use POP3
and you move e-mail messages to a folder you created, the link is broken between the messages on the device and their copies on the mail server. The next time you connect, the mail server sees that the messages are missing from the device Inbox and deletes them from the server. This prevents you from having duplicate copies of a message, but it also means that you no longer have access to messages that you move to fold­ers created from anywhere except the 700 Color Computer.
S If you use IMAP4,
the folders you create and the e-mail messages you move are mirrored on the server. Therefore, messages are available to you anytime you con­nect to your mail server, whether it is from your 700 Color Computer or desktop. This synchronization of folders occurs whenever you con­nect to your mail server, create new folders, or rename or delete folders when connected.
For all accounts except ActiveSync, you can access folder options by tap­ping Tools > Manage Folders.
74 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual
Windows Mobile 2003Chapter 2
Connectingto a Mail Server
In addition to synchronizing e-mail messages with your desktop, you can send and receive e-mail messages by connecting to an e-mail server using a modem or network card connected to your 700 Color Computer. You need to set up a remote connection to a network or an ISP, and a connec­tion to your e-mail server. For more information, see “Getting Connected” on page 98.
When you connect to the e-mail server, new messages are downloaded to the 700 Color Computer Inbox folder, messages in the 700 Color Com­puter Outbox folder are sent, and messages that were deleted on the e-mail server are removed from the 700 Color Computer Inbox folder.
Messages that you receive directly from an e-mail server are linked to your e-mail server rather than your desktop. When you delete a message on your 700 Color Computer, it is also deleted from the e-mail server the next time you connect based on the settings selected in ActiveSync.
You can work online or offline. When working online, you read and re­spond to messages while connected to the e-mail server. Messages are sent as soon as you tap Send, which saves space on your 700 Color Computer.
When working offline, once you have downloaded new message headers or partial messages, you can disconnect from the e-mail server and then de­cide which messages to download completely. The next time you connect, Inbox downloads the complete messages you have marked for retrieval and sends the messages you have composed.
