Preface
Welcome
Congratulations on purchasing this Windows® Powered Pocket PC. Due to the
size and capabilities of the device, you can keep your most important business
and personal information up-to-date and close at hand. Microsoft
increases the power of your Pocket PC by allowing you to synchronize the
information on your desktop or laptop computer with your Pocket PC. Picture
yourself in the following situations:
While walking with a colleague, your cell phone rings and your boss asks if
you two are free this afternoon for an emergency meeting. While your
colleague fumbles through his paper organizer, you press a button on your
Pocket PC and instantly see a list of today’s appointments and meetings.
You are quickly able to tell the boss your available times. For more
information on scheduling appointments and meetings, see Chapter 4.
ActiveSync
You are meeting your friends tonight for dinner and a movie. You download
the latest movie information from the Internet to your desktop computer and
then synchronize it with your Pocket PC. At dinner, you pull out your
Pocket PC and review your movie options with your friends. For more
information on downloading Web pages to your device, see Chapter 6.
A Calendar reminder alerts you that it is time to catch the bus. You grab
your Pocket PC and catch the bus just in time. Because ActiveSync keeps
the information on your Pocket PC up-to-date, you leisurely review your
task list, make notes about the new books and CDs you want to buy and read
and respond to e-mail messages. When you get back to the office,
ActiveSync transfers any task changes you made, your notes and your
e-mail message responses to your desktop computer. For more information
on ActiveSync, see Chapter 6.

1.2 Setting Up Your Pocket PC for Use
You must perform the initial startup and charge the battery before starting to use
your Pocket PC.
Performing the Initial Startup
The battery switch should be set to the ON (down) position for normal
operation.
1. Make sure that your Pocket PC is turned off.
2. Pull out the stylus and use it to slide the
battery switch to the ON (down) position.
CAUTION: Always leave the battery switch in the
ON position during normal operation.
3. The red notification indicator on your
Pocket PC will flash for approximately 30
seconds. Then your Pocket PC will
automatically turn on and display the
Welcome screen.
4. To begin the Welcome Wizard, tap the screen with the stylus and follow the
onscreen instructions to complete the Welcome Wizard. The wizard
presents a brief orientation to Microsoft® Windows® for Pocket PC, helps
you align the touch screen and prompts you to select your city and time
zone.
7
Connecting to AC Power and Charging the Battery
CAUTION:
Use only the AC adapter (PHIHONG, PSC05R-050) supplied with your Pocket PC. Use
of another type of AC adapter will result in malfunction and/or danger.
This product is intended to be supplied by a Listed Power Unit marked “LPS” and output
rated +5 V dc / 900mA minimum.
Before using your Pocket PC for the first time, you must charge and calibrate
the battery.
1. Plug the converter to the AC adapter.
2. Connect to AC power. You can connect either with or without the cradle.
NOTE: The availability of the cradle and cable depends on your choice of purchase.
With the cradle
Slide your Pocket PC into the
cradle.
Connect the appropriate end of
the AC adapter to the power
connector on the cradle cable.
Plug the other end of the AC
adapter into a wall outlet.
Charge Indicator
Converter
Without the cradle

3. The charge indicator glows amber when charging is in progress. Do not
disconnect your Pocket PC from AC power until the battery is fully
charged, as indicated by the steady amber indicator going off. This will take
a couple of hours.
4. When the charge indicator goes off, your Pocket PC will automatically
calibrate the battery. If you want to unplug the AC adapter, wait at least 5
seconds. This length of time is necessary for the battery calibration to
complete and thus ensure the best performance of the battery.
CAUTION: If you immediately unplug the AC adapter after the charge indicator goes off,
the battery calibration may not complete. This can cause your Pocket PC to give the “low
battery” warning message when you turn it on. In this case, charge and calibrate the
battery again.
Whenever possible, keep your Pocket PC connected to the AC adapter and a
power source. Doing so keeps the battery charged.
1.3 Installing Microsoft ActiveSync
A key component of your Pocket PC is the Microsoft ActiveSync program.
With Microsoft ActiveSync, you can synchronize the information on your
desktop computer with the information on your Pocket PC and update both with
the most recent information.
ActiveSync is already installed on your Pocket PC. You need to install
ActiveSync on your desktop computer. Follow the procedure below:
CAUTION:
Before installation, make sure that you have Microsoft Outlook installed on your desktop
computer. If you do not have Outlook or your version of Outlook is earlier than the
version provided on the Companion CD, install Outlook from the Companion CD.
Do not connect your Pocket PC to your desktop computer before ActiveSync is
installed.
1. Turn on your desktop computer.
2. Insert the Companion CD into the CD-ROM drive of your desktop
computer.
3. Click the arrow on the first screen to enter the main screen and click

For more information on ActiveSync, see section 6.2.
1.4 Turning Your Pocket PC On and Off
After the initial startup, your Pocket PC enters a suspend state when you turn it
off and resumes when you turn it on.
Turning Off to Suspend
You suspend your Pocket PC by briefly pressing the power button on the top of
your Pocket PC.

Settings
System
tab

icon.)
Turning On to Resume
You resume your Pocket PC by briefly pressing the power button.
You can also press one of the program buttons to resume.
1.5 Expanding Your Pocket PC
Using a SD/MMC Card
Your Pocket PC has a SD/MMC slot where you can insert an optional Secure
Digital or MultiMediaCard memory card (also called storage card). With the
removable memory, you can store or backup your data and exchange data with
other devices.
11
NOTE:
Make sure that no foreign objects enter the slot.
Keep a SD or MMC card in a well-protected box to avoid
dust and humidity when you are not using it.
To use a SD/MMC card, insert it into the slot, with the
connector pointing to the slot and its label facing the
front of the Pocket PC. Follow the instructions supplied
with the card for more information.
To remove a card, first make sure that no application is
accessing the card, then slightly push the top edge of the
card to release it and pull it out of the slot.
Accessories
By purchasing accessories designed for your Pocket PC, you can expand the
capabilities of your Pocket PC, replace lost parts or facilitate your operation.
For the availability of the accessories from your Pocket PC manufacturer, refer
to the Companion CD or contact your dealer.
CAUTION: The use of unauthorized accessories will void your Warranty.
Depending on your choice of purchase, you may already have the following
accessories:
Protective Cover
Store your Pocket PC in the cover when you are carrying it on the road.
