Your Pocket PC is a multifunction handheld device designed for ease of
use in the office, on the road, at home or wherever you are.
The Pocket PC is powered by the Microsoft®Windows®Powered Pocket
PC 2003 operating system. Data synchronising between the Pocket PC and
a computer is provided by Microsoft ActiveSync®.
Standard features include a 300-MHz Intel®PXA255 processor, 64-MB
synchronous dynamic random access memory (SDRAM), reflective LCD
panel with 65K colour, touch screen with automatic backlighting, internal
speaker, microphone and a rechargeable Lithium Ion battery. Touch screen
backlighting levels are adjustable.
The Pocket PC includes an infrared (IR) port and Secure Digital
(SD)/MultiMediaCard (MMC) card slot. You can use the IR port to
transfer data between other handheld devices with IR capabilities or your
computer. The SD/MMC card slot can be used to expand memory, add
applications and more.
Also included with the Pocket PC is a cradle for holding the Pocket PC.
Use the cradle to synchronise with your computer.
Your Pocket PC comes with a stylus, a pen-like device that allows you to
touch, tap or double tap objects on the Pocket PC touch screen. The touch,
tap and double tap act just like a point, click and double click of a mouse.
The external features of the Pocket PC and USB cradle are shown and
described in the following sections.

Your Pocket PC contains a rechargeable Lithium Ion battery. The battery
must be charged before you use the Pocket PC the first time. You can
periodically recharge thereafter.
Battery power is monitored by your Pocket PC. Warning messages and
battery low icons are displayed when battery power becomes low. If you
receive a “battery low” warning message, you should save your data and
recharge the battery as soon as possible to avoid data loss.
You can also monitor battery power activity through the “power
remaining” indicator on your Pocket PC. Tap 6WDUW, 6HWWLQJV, the 6\VWH
tab and 3RZHU to see the indicator.
1RWHBefore using your Pocket PC for the first time, you need to charge
and calibrate the battery.
Charge the battery as follows:
 You may need to connect the appropriate converter to the AC
adapter’s plug according to your country.
 Connect your Pocket PC to an AC power source.
 If you are using the cradle for charging, install the Pocket PC in
the cradle, plug the appropriate end of the AC adapter into the
power connector on the USB cable and plug the other end into a
grounded AC outlet.
 If you are not using the cradle, plug the appropriate end of the AC
adapter directly into the power connector on the bottom of the

1RWH If you want to unplug the AC adapter after the battery has been
fully charged, 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. Should your Pocket PC indicate a low battery level just after it
has been fully charged, please repeat the battery calibration procedure.
Now calibrate and activate your Pocket PC (see “Calibrate and Activate
the Pocket PC” in the following section). Calibration must be done to
ensure proper operation of your Pocket PC.

This screen displays your important events (for example, current date and
time, your name, upcoming appointments, unread messages, tasks).
Tapping or tapping 6WDUW on the “Today” screen with the stylus takes
you to the “Navigation Bar” screen. In the Navigation Bar, you can select

A key component of your Pocket PC is the Microsoft ActiveSync program.
With Microsoft ActiveSync, you can synchronise the information on your
computer and/or a Microsoft Exchange Server with the information on
your Pocket PC and update both with the most recent information.
1RWH You can synchronise information directly with a Microsoft
Exchange Server if your company is running Microsoft Mobile Information
Server 2002 or later.
For example:
 Keep Microsoft Pocket Outlook®data up-to-date by synchronising
your Pocket PC with Microsoft Outlook data on your computer.
 Synchronise Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel files between your
Pocket PC and computer. Your files are automatically converted to the
correct format.
1RWH By default, ActiveSync does not automatically synchronise all
types of information. Use ActiveSync options to turn synchronisation on and
off for specific information types.
With ActiveSync, you can also:
 Back up and restore your Pocket PC data.
 Copy (rather than synchronise) files between your Pocket PC and
computer.
 Control when synchronisation occurs by selecting a synchronisation
mode. For example, you can synchronise continually while connected
to your computer or only when you choose the synchronise command.
 Select which information types are synchronised and control how
much data is synchronised. For example, you can choose how many
weeks of past appointments you want synchronised.

*HW6WDUWHG 
Your Pocket PC comes with ActiveSync already installed. However, to
synchronise information with your computer, you must also install
ActiveSync on your computer.
Install ActiveSync on your computer from the Companion CD as follows:
1RWH Before starting the ActiveSync installation, ensure that you have
Microsoft Outlook 2002 or later installed on your computer. If you do not
