Using the Stylus

Your iPAQ Pocket PC comes with a stylus that you should use to tap or write on your screen.

ÄCAUTION: To prevent damage to your iPAQ Pocket PC screen, never use any device other than the stylus that comes with the Pocket PC

or an approved replacement to tap or write on the screen. If you lose or break your stylus, you can order extras at www.hp.com/go/ipaqaccessories.

You can perform three basic actions using the stylus:

Tap—Lightly touch the screen to select or open an item. Lift the stylus after you tap an item. Tapping is equivalent to clicking an item with the mouse on your computer.

Drag—Place the point of the stylus on the screen and drag an item across the screen without lifting the stylus until you have completed the selection. Dragging is equivalent to dragging with the left mouse button pressed on your computer.

Tap and hold—Hold the stylus pointer on an item for a short time until a menu displays. Tapping and holding is equivalent to right-clicking your computer mouse button. When you tap and hold, a circle of red dots appears around the stylus to indicate that the menu will soon pop up.

Setting the Date and Time

When you turn on your iPAQ Pocket PC for the first time, you are requested to select your time zone. After setting the time zone, you still need to set the time and date on your unit. All three settings are located in the Clock Settings screen and can be set at the same time.

Note: By default, the time on the iPAQ Pocket PC is synchronized with your computer each time the two devices connect using ActiveSync.

Resetting the Unit

Sometimes there is a need to reset your Pocket PC. Resetting the unit is known as performing a “soft” or “hard” reset. A soft reset (also known as a normal reset) stops all running applications, but does not erase any programs or saved data.

A hard reset (also known as a full reset) is used when you want to clear all user-installed settings, programs, and data from the Read-Only Memory (ROM). By performing a hard reset, you return the device to its original shipping state.

Performing a Soft Reset

Since a soft reset stops all running applications, be sure to save any unsaved data within a running application before performing a soft reset.

To perform a soft reset:

1.Locate the recessed Reset button on the bottom of your iPAQ Pocket PC.

2.Use the stylus to lightly press the Reset button.

The Pocket PC restarts and displays the Today screen.

Performing a Hard Reset

Perform a hard reset only when it is necessary because this process does clear all user-installed settings, programs, and data from ROM.

ÄCAUTION: If you perform a hard reset, your Pocket PC returns to its default settings and loses all data and programs not saved in iPAQ File Store.

When you travel, it is recommended that you carry the AC Adapter, Charger Adapter plug, or an optional spare battery with you.

ÄCAUTION: Use only an HP approved battery for your iPAQ Pocket PC. Inserting a battery that does not comply with HP requirements might cause the Pocket PC to malfunction.

The iPAQ Pocket PC also has a small internal backup battery that allows you to change the main battery without losing RAM data (user-installed programs and data) as long as it is replaced within 15 minutes. The internal battery can only be removed by qualified HP Technical Support.

Installing the Battery

To install the removable/rechargeable battery:

1.Insert the right side of the battery into the right side of the battery compartment.
