5700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual
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.
36700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual

Microsoft ActiveSync
Visit the following Microsoft Web site for the latest in updates, technical
information, and samples:
Using Microsoft ActiveSync, you can synchronize the information on your
desktop with the information on your 700 Color Computer. Synchronization compares the data on your 700 Color Computer with your desktop
and updates both computers with the most recent information. For example:
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

your desktop, and customize your synchronization settings. Your first synchronization process automatically begins when finished using the wizard.
After your first synchronization, look at Calendar, Contacts, and Tasks on
your 700 Color Computer. Notice that information you have stored in
Microsoft Outlook on your desktop was copied to your 700 Color Computer, and you did not have to type a word. Disconnect the 700 Color
Computer from your computer and you are ready to go!

Microsoft Pocket Outlook
Microsoft Pocket Outlook includes Calendar, Contacts, Tasks, Inbox, and
Notes. You can use these programs individually or together. For example,
youcanusee-mailaddressesstoredinContactstoaddresse-mailmessages
in Inbox.
Using ActiveSync, you can synchronize information in Microsoft Outlook
or Microsoft Exchange on your desktop with your 700 Color Computer.
You can also synchronize this information directly with a Microsoft Exchange server. Each time you synchronize, ActiveSync compares the
changes you made on your 700 Color Computer and desktop or server
and updates both computers with the latest information. For information
on using ActiveSync, see ActiveSync Help on the desktop.
You can switch to any program by tapping it on the Start menu.

Synchronizing Calendar
Calendar items stored on your device can be synchronized with calendar
items on your desktop or Microsoft Exchange Server. (Note that you can
only synchronize information directly with an Exchange Server if your
company is running Microsoft Mobile Information Server 2002 or later.)
Calendar synchronization is automatically selected in ActiveSync.
Calendar items entered on one computer are copied to the other during
synchronization. Handwritten notes and drawings are saved as metafiles
(pictures).
For more information on synchronization, see ActiveSync Help on the
desktop.
Why Use Categories in the Calendar?
Use categories to group related tasks, contacts, and appointments. Then,
use these groupings to quickly display only the information you want. For
example, you can easily share your device with another by assigning your
appointments to a category with a special project’s name. You can then use
this category to filter Calendar and only display appointments for that
project.
Note: In Month View, the day of an appointment assigned to the Holiday
category appears in red.

What’s an All Day Event?
An appointment can either be a normal appointment or an all day event,
which lasts the full day or spans many days. Examples include a trade
show, a vacation, or a seminar. You can also use all day events to schedule

Status box to Free (you may need to scroll to see it) so that it does not
show time as busy in your calendar. All day events do not occupy blocks of
time in Calendar; they appear in banners at the top of the calendar.

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 2003—Chapter 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.

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.

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.
