How to Prolong Battery Life

■ Use the Toshiba Pocket PC e740 with the AC adapter.

When you use the Toshiba Pocket PC under the following conditions,
the power consumption will be higher than normal. Please use the AC
adapter when:

■ The Toshiba Pocket PC e740 is operated while connected to your

computer.

■ The Toshiba Pocket PC e740 is operated with a storage card or

with any other optional equipment.

■ Select the short power-off time in the setting menu. This will shorten

the time the unit will remain on if not used. For more information, see
“Customize Your Toshiba Pocket PC” in this chapter.

■ Turn off the front light.

■ Set the screen brightness to power save mode (Med Bright or low

Bright). Also shorten the light turn-off time. For more information, see
“Customize Your Toshiba Pocket PC” in this chapter.

■ Use the Toshiba Pocket PC with an ambient temperature between

15°C (59°F) and 25°C (77°F). This temperature range is the most
effective for the battery.

■ When you use the Toshiba Pocket PC e740 in high or low

temperature environments, the operable time is shortened due to
the decrease of the battery capacity.

■ Turn off the Wireless Communication Switch when you don’t use

Bluetooth or Wireless LAN (Bluetooth and Wireless LAN models
only).

Battery Life

The battery has a limited life. Repeated charging/discharging of the
battery gradually decreases operable time.

■ Do not leave the Toshiba Pocket PC in a place of high or low

temperature. It may shorten battery life.

If you have not used the Toshiba Pocket PC for several days, its battery
charge level reading may be inaccurate. Fully recharge the battery before
using.

User's Manual 2-9

Basic Skills

Battery Charge Level and Stored Data Protection

If the battery charge level becomes extremely low, or is completely
discharged, the memory data stored in the Toshiba Pocket PC will be
lost.

When the low battery status icon or the alarm message appears,
immediately connect the AC adapter to your Toshiba Pocket PC and
charge the battery.

The battery gradually discharges even if the device is not being used.
When the Toshiba Pocket PC is left for a long time, the battery of the
Toshiba Pocket PC may completely discharge.

As a precaution, it is recommended that you save the Toshiba
Pocket PC’s memory data to your computer or to a storage card.

The manufacturer is not responsible for data change or data loss due to
battery discharge.

■ Write the letters of a word closely and leave big gaps between words

so that the device can easily tell where words begin and end.

■ Hyphenated words, foreign words that use special characters such as

accents, and some punctuation cannot be converted.

■ If you add writing to a word to change it (such as changing a “3” to an

Microsoft ActiveSync

Using Microsoft® ActiveSync®,you can synchronize the information on
your computer with the information on your device. Synchronization
compares the data on your device with your PC and updates both
computers with the most recent information. For example:

■ Keep Pocket Outlook data up-to-date by synchronizing your device

with Microsoft Outlook data on your PC.

■ Synchronize Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel files between your

device and computer.
Your files are automatically converted to the correct format.

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:

■ Back up and restore your device data.

■ Copy (rather than synchronize) files between your device and

computer.

■ Control when synchronization occurs by selecting a synchronization

mode. For example, you can synchronize continually while connected
to your computer or only when you choose the synchronize
command.

■ 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 PC from the
Toshiba Pocket PC Companion CD. For more information on installing
ActiveSync, see your Quick Start card. ActiveSync is already installed on
your device.

After installation is complete, the ActiveSync Setup Wizard helps you
connect your Pocket PC to your PC, set up a partnership so you can
synchronize information between your Pocket PC and your PC, and
customize your synchronization settings. Your first synchronization
process will automatically begin when you finish using the wizard.

User's Manual 3-1

you’re ready to go!

Once you have set up ActiveSync and completed the first synchronization
process, you can initiate synchronization from your device. To switch to

■ Send and receive e-mail messages by connecting directly to an e-mail

server through an Internet Service Provider (ISP) or a network.

Synchronizing E-mail Messages

E-mail messages can be synchronized as part of the general
synchronization process. You will need to enable Inbox synchronization in
ActiveSync. For information on enabling Inbox synchronization, see
ActiveSync Help on the PC.

During synchronization:

■ Messages are copied from the mail folders of Exchange or Outlook on

your computer to the ActiveSync folder in Inbox on your device. By
default, you will receive messages from the past three days only, the
first 100 lines of each message, and file attachments of less than
100 KB in size.

■ E-mail messages in the Outbox folder on your device are transferred

to Exchange or Outlook, and then sent from those programs.

■ E-mail messages in subfolders must be selected in ActiveSync on

your computer in order to be transferred.

Managing E-mail Messages and Folders

By default, messages are displayed in one of five folders for each service
you have created: Inbox, Deleted Items, Drafts, Outbox, and Sent Items.
The Deleted Items folder contains messages that have been deleted on
the device. The behavior of the Deleted and Sent Items folders depends
on the options you have chosen. In the message list, tap Tools and then
Options. On the Message tab, select your options.

If you want to organize messages into additional folders, tap Tools, and
then Manage Folders to create new folders. To move a message to
another folder, in the message list, tap and hold the message and then
tap Move to on the pop-up menu.

Folder behavior with a direct connection to an e-mail
server

The behavior of the folders you create depends on whether you are using
ActiveSync, SMS, POP3, or IMAP4.

■ If you use ActiveSync, e-mail messages in the Inbox folder in Outlook

will automatically be synchronized with your device. You can select to
synchronize additional folders by designating them for ActiveSync.
The folders you create and the messages you move will then be
mirrored on the server. For example, if you move two messages from
the Inbox folder to a folder named Family, 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 computer.

■ If you use SMS, messages are stored in the Inbox folder.

■ 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 will see that the messages are missing from the device Inbox
and delete them from the server. This prevents you from having
duplicate copies of a message, but it also means that you will no
longer have access to messages that you move to folders created
from anywhere except the device.

■ 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
device or computer. This synchronization of folders occurs whenever
you connect to your mail server, create new folders, or rename/ delete
folders when connected.
