Step 1: Charging your Sony CLIE Handheld  
Charging with the cradle  
Note  
Before you use your CLIE handheld for the first time, make sure to charge it.  
Connect the supplied cradle to an AC power source in advance.  
Charging will start as soon as you place your CLIE handheld on the  
cradle. The battery icon in the screen changes to the battery charging  
icon (  
).  
It takes about 4 hours for your CLIE handheld to be fully charged for  
the first time. Subsequent charges, if it is charged frequently, will  
require less time.  
Insert your CLIE handheld at an  
angle to the cradle and lay it  
back to fit into place.  
To the wall  
outlet  
When you place your CLIE handheld on the cradle, the cradle  
indicator turns on and charging starts.  
When charging is completed  
When you remove your CLIE handheld from the cradle, the battery  
charging icon changes to the battery icon (  
).  
The cradle indicator remains on even after charging is complete.  
Note on battery  
If the battery in your CLIE handheld is fully discharged, all data stored on  
the DRAM (memory) is lost. Performing another HotSync operation once the  
battery is recharged can restore information saved from the last HotSync  
operation.

Charging directly from the power supply  
You can also charge your CLIE handheld by connecting the supplied  
AC adapter directly to your CLIE handheld. The AC adapter operates  
only on 110–240 V AC power supply.  
To the wall outlet  
Connect the AC adapter to  
the CLIE interface  
connector.  
When the AC adapter is connected to your CLIE handheld, charging  
starts automatically and the battery icon on the screen changes to the  
battery charging icon (  
).  
To remove the AC adapter from your CLIE handheld  
Squeeze both sides of the  
connector and pull it out.

handheld screen. Never use a real pen, pencil, or other sharp object to write  
on the screen.

occur. If this happens, please re-configure the digitizer manually. You can  
also re-configure the digitizer in the Digitizer Preferences screen. For details,

Step 3: Entering data into your Sony CLIE  
Handheld  
There are three ways to enter data into your CLIE handheld:  
®
– Using Graffiti writing  
– Using the onscreen keyboard  
– Using your computer keyboard  
Graffiti writing  
Your CLIE handheld includes Graffiti writing software as the primary  
system for entering text and numbers. With Graffiti writing, you write  
simple strokes with the stylus and they are instantly recognized as  
letters or numbers.  
The Graffiti strokes closely resemble the upper case letters of the  
regular alphabet, which makes Graffiti writing easy to learn.  
Graffiti writing examples:  
A, B, C, D, and E  
The Graffiti writing area is divided into two parts: one for writing the  
letters of the alphabet and one for writing numbers. The small marks at  
the top and bottom of the Graffiti writing area indicate the two areas.

If you have a lot of data to enter, or prefer to use the computer  
keyboard, you can use the Palm Desktop for CLIE software or any  
supported PIM (Personal Information Management) applications to

synchronize the information on your computer with the information  
on your CLIE handheld. All the main applications on your CLIE  
handheld are also available in the Palm Desktop for CLIE software and  
in most PIM applications, so you don't need to learn different  
applications.

Step 4: Installing the Palm Desktop for  
CLIE software onto your computer  
The Palm Desktop for CLIE software extends many of the functions  
of your CLIE handheld to your computer, featuring the same main  
applications as those on your CLIE handheld: Address Book, Date

connectivity. You can use the HotSync Manager feature of this  
software to back up and exchange data between your CLIE handheld  
and your computer.  
Notes  
• Do not connect the cradle to a USB connector of your computer before  
installing the Palm Desktop for CLIE software. The installation of the software  
might not be performed correctly.  
• If other Palm Desktop software is already installed on your computer, uninstall  
it and install the Palm Desktop for CLIE software. For details, see “Upgrading  
the existing Palm Desktop software” on page 33.  
• Do not simply copy the Palm Desktop for CLIE software files to your  
computer’s hard disk. You must use the installer and follow the procedures  
described in this section to place the files in their proper locations and to  
decompress the files.  
• If you are already using a Sony CLIE handheld PEG-S300/N710C, you can  
choose to continue using your old Palm Desktop for CLIE software without  
upgrading it. To introduce the CLIE data of your old CLIE handheld into the  
new one, see “Using data of another Sony CLIE Handheld” in the Operating  
Instructions manual.

Upgrading the existing Palm Desktop software  
Multiple versions of Palm Desktop cannot be installed on one  
computer. If an older version of Palm Desktop for CLIE software  
already exists, it is recommended that you uninstall it prior to the new  
installation. All handheld user data is preserved when upgrading the  
Palm Desktop for CLIE software.  
On Intellisync Lite  
Intellisync Lite allows you to synchronize your Calendar, Contacts, To  
Do List, and Memo Pad data in your CLIE handheld with the data of a  
®
variety of popular Windows applications including:  
– Microsoft Outlook 97/98/2000  
During a HotSync operation, Intellisync Lite compares each record of  
information in your CLIE handheld to the information stored in the  
PIM (Personal Information Management) applications, and then makes  
necessary changes to both systems to make sure that they both contain  
the same data.

HotSync, a technology particular to a Palm OS platform device, is the  
one-step operation that allows you to synchronize data between your  
CLIE handheld and your computer, and backup the CLIE data on your  
computer. For details, see “Exchanging and updating data using a  
®
HotSync operation” in the Operating Instructions manual.  
®
When performing a HotSync operation for the first time, you have to  
enter your user information both into your CLIE handheld and into the  
Palm Desktop for CLIE software. After the user name is recognized,  
you do not have to enter the same information again.  
Press the HotSync  
button on the cradle.

records, never try to synchronize more than one handheld to the same user  
name.  
Click OK on your computer screen.  
A beep sounds and the HotSync operation starts. When the HotSync  
process is complete, a message showing the HotSync operation  
completion is displayed on your CLIE handheld.

Performing a hard reset deletes all the add-on applications. However, if you  
®
perform a HotSync operation before the hard reset and make a backup copy,  
you can restore add-on applications at the next HotSync operation.

To access the Install Tool dialog box

If you selected Memory Stick in step 8  
With some applications, your CLIE handheld may not be able to  
display data if you installed the application in the “Memory Stick”  
media.  
This is because the Palm Desktop for CLIE software installs application  
data in the /PALM/LAUNCHER directory when Memory Stick is  
selected in step 8. As a result, some application data cannot be started  
through normal process.  
If the application you installed in the “Memory Stick” media fail to  
start, copy the data again, this time to your CLIE handheld. For details,  
see “Copying data in ‘Memory Stick’ media to your CLIE handheld” in  
the Operating Instructions manual.

Installing add-on applications by beaming them  
®
from another Palm OS device  
Your CLIE handheld is equipped with an IR (infrared) port that you  
®
can use to beam an application to another Palm OS PDA device that’s  
close by and also has an IR port. You can beam applications that are  
either installed in your CLIE handheld or stored in the inserted  
“Memory Stick” media. The IR port is located at the top of your CLIE  
handheld, behind the small dark shield.

When the Beam dialog box appears, point the IR port  
directly at the IR port of the receiving handheld.  
Tip  
For best results, the handhelds should be 4 to 8 inches (approximately 10 to  
20 centimeters) apart, and the path between the two handhelds must be clear  
of obstacles. Beaming distance to other Palm OS PDA devices may be  
different.  
Wait for the Beam dialog box to indicate that the  
transfer is complete before you continue using your CLIE  
handheld.
