4Caring for the Product

Caring for the

Organizer

The Organizer contains sophisticated circuitry and a glass display panel which can be damaged if not handled with care. A few precautions should be taken regarding the Organizer’s care to ensure it gives you many years of reliable and trouble-free use.

*Keep the Organizer away from extreme heat. Do not leave it on the dashboard of a car or near any source of heat. Do not leave it in any place that is extremely damp or dusty.

*Do not drop the Organizer or subject it to severe impact or extreme force. Bending the Organizer unduly can damage it.

*Do not use extreme force when pressing the keys. Do not use any sharp, pointed object to press them.

*Sharp or hard object can scratch and damage the Organizer. Make sure it is adequately protected when carried with other objects. Do not carry it loose in a bag or briefcase: find a pocket or secure compartment within your bag.

*Clean the Organizer only with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use solvents.

*Do not carry the Organizer around in your back pocket, as it may break when you sit down. The display is made of glass and is very delicate.

*Since this Organizer is not waterproof, do not use it or store it where fluids, for example water, can splash onto it. Raindrops, water spray, juice, coffee, steam, perspiration, etc. will also cause malfunction.

*Replace the batteries as soon as they become weak (see p.64). Failing to replace weak batteries may result in leakage or lost data.

Continuous use of the backlight will, over time, lead to gradual loss of brightness.

Getting to Know Your Organizer

OZ-730/OZ-750 is a compact yet sophisticated information management device that you can use anytime. Its applications and utilities allow you to enter and organize information, and it has powerful communications facilities that enable you to put that information to optimum use when you return to your home or office. You can quickly update your computerized mailing lists, for example, or even transfer your notes, letters and memos onto a PC for further processing.

Applications

Operations on the Organizer are performed using applications. The Organizer’s Calendar and Schedule, for example, are applications that record and display time related information. To start an application, select the application in the Main Menus or press the Application keys on the left of the screen (Main /

Tel / Schedule / Memo / My Programs).

Getting Started 11

When working in one application, you can switch to another application simply by pressing that application key (Main / Tel 1

/ Schedule / Memo / My Programs only). Data being processed in the first application will be kept, even if the entry is not complete.

Menu operations

Another powerful aspect of using the Organizer is its menu system, which can be used to quickly issue commands and perform operations. Press once displays the application menu, which contains the operations and commands specific to the particular application.

Pop-up menus

The Organizer’s pop-up menus offer a convenient and efficient method of selecting options from pre-defined lists, similar to many of the latest personal computer application software packages. Most applications and functions contain some popup fields. When the user moves to one of these fields, the popup symbol appears on the right of the field. Pressing causes the pop-up menu to appear, containing a list of options or values currently available for that field. You can then select the desired item from the list without having to type any text.

In addition, all date fields function as pop-up fields. Where a date can be entered, the user can press to display the

12 Getting Started

special pop-up one-month calendar. You can use and to select the desired month, then the arrow keys to select the desired date. You may find this more convenient than typing in the date directly, since the pop-up calendar also shows the days of the week.

Editing Techniques

This section explains all the general editing techniques used in Edit mode when making a new entry or editing an existing entry in all of the applications. (The Memo application has many additional features for working with text; see p.33 for more information.)

Fields

Most applications divide the display into field boxes. The number of fields in each application varies, as do the types of fields. The different types of field include text fields, a date field, time fields and pop-up fields.

You can type any character into a text field. The size of a text field is limited only by the size of the entry. Text fields adjust their size automatically to accommodate the number of lines entered.

Only a date can be entered in a date field, usually in the format MM/DD/YYYY For example, you would type 07232000 to enter July 23, 2000.

Only a time of day can be entered in the time field, in the format of HH:MM followed by or (for AM and PM). For example, to enter 9:00 AM, you would type 0900 then press .

When the pop-up symbol appears by a field while editing an entry, this indicates that a pop-up menu is available for the field. The pop-up menu contains a list of values available for the field, and is used by pressing and selecting the desired value from the pop-up list. Note that the pop-up symbol only

appears next to a field in Edit mode, when the field is selected. When you move out of a pop-up field, the pop-up symbol disappears.

The cursor

The cursor is used to work with text, indicating the position where text will be entered or deleted. It is also used to select items from menus or lists.

In text fields, where there is no restriction on the type of text (letters or numbers) that can be entered, the cursor appears as |.

In the date and time fields, the cursor appears as , indicating that numbers only should be entered in a specified format (see above).

In text fields or boxes when there is no character at the cursor position, the cursor appears as |.

Typing in text

Typing in text is simple and straightforward. The Organizer’s keyboard layout is just like the keyboard on a typewriter or computer.

Letters (lower-case and upper-case)

Any of the standard letters (A to Z) can be entered by pressing the corresponding key. All letters will normally appear in lower case. Hold down either of the keys while pressing letter key

(s) to enter upper-case letters. functions like a “Caps lock” key on a typewriter or computer. Once pressed, the symbol will appear at the upper right corner of the display.

	appear in upper case. To switch back to lower-case mode,
	simply press	again. To enter lower-case letters while in
			2
	CAPS mode, hold down while pressing a letter key.

Numbers

Pressing the corresponding numeric keys enters numbers. Numbers are entered regardless of whether CAPS mode is on or off.

change applications. To avoid these problems, you should
check the remaining memory space regularly and free up space
