Configuring Pocket LOOX 600
You can already choose from a large number of programs when you use the Pocket PC for the first
time. In addition, proven default settings are defined for the menu structure, energy management,
memory management and security functions.
But, of course, you can add and remove programs and configure the Pocket PC as desired.
This chapter shows you how to
·
optimise the energy management of your Pocket PC
·
configure the hardware buttons
·
adjust the menus to your personal needs
·
use the security functions
·
change the time and use the alarm functions
Please see the Microsoft User’s Guide (on this "Pocket LOOX AddOn & Documentation" CD) and
the documentation of the software manufacturer for the procedure for removing and adding
programs.
We describe the configuration of the FSC SpeedMenu in the chapter "Editing FSC SpeedMenu" in this
manual and in the FSC SpeedMenu help on your Pocket PC.
Optimising energy management
General information on energy management
The battery operating time is considerably dependent on the applications used. Please consider that
a particularly large amount of energy is required to play sound files or make sound recordings.
Therefore, if you want to work for several hours without a power connection, limit the use of energy-
intensive applications.
Data exchange with a PC or notebook also consumes additional battery power. Therefore, always
connect your Pocket PC to an electrical outlet during data exchange if possible.
Displaying battery status
Ê Touch Start.
Ê Select the Settings entry in the menu.
Ê Select the System tab.
Ê Tap the symbol Power .
In the Power supply control panel you can now read off the current battery status.
If the battery charge level is very low, you will be warned with a dialog window during operation.
Then immediately connect your Pocket LOOX 600 to an electrical outlet. Data that are only located
in the RAM will be lost if the Pocket PC switches off completely due to an insufficient power supply.
