Configuring Pocket LOOX 610

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
For information on removing and adding programs, please refer to the documentation from the
software manufacturer and the ActiveSync help file, that you can call at any time after installing
ActiveSync on your notebook/PC.
We describe the configuration of the FSC SpeedMenu in the "Editing FSC SpeedMenu" chapter 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.
We also recommend that you reduce the display brightness to effectively save energy and therefore
appreciably increase the time you can work with the battery.

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 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 610 to an electrical outlet.
If you do not immediately connect your Pocket PC to the mains power, the Pocket PC will
automatically switch itself off. The data in the RAM memory remains intact for several hours.
