Managing the Battery  
Installing the Battery  
The Pocket PC has a small internal backup battery that allows  
you to change the main battery without losing RAM data  
(user-installed programs and data) as long as it is replaced  
immediately.  
It is recommended that you fully charge the iPAQ Pocket PC  
battery before setting up the unit, and recharge regularly. Your  
Pocket PC uses some power to maintain files in RAM and the

Special Key Features  
The integrated keyboard takes advantage of several special  
features to make using a small keyboard easier.  
“Sticky” Keys  
The integrated keyboard uses a “Sticky Key” feature for the Shift,  
Menu, and Fn keys (known as “key modifiers”). This means that  
when you enter a number or symbol requiring a combination of  
keys to be pressed, the key modifier will stay engaged until you  
press the second key. It is not necessary to press both keys at the  
same time.  
Special Keys  
There are several keys on the integrated keyboard that, when used  
in combination with other keys, make it easier to navigate the  
keyboard or have special modifier capabilities.

You can pair devices so they must exchange a computer generated  
security key prior to each connection. The security key is also  
called a “Link Key.” It is generated from a unique Bluetooth  
device address, a random number, and a user-defined password.  
After two devices are paired, they have a trusted relationship with  
each other that can be verified using a link key. No additional  
input is needed from the user. Therefore, connections and  
activities can be performed between the paired devices without  
constant authorization from the user.  
To pair devices:  
1. From the Today screen, tap Start > Bluetooth Manager.

Establishing an ActiveSync Connection  
You can set up an ActiveSync partnership with a  
Bluetooth-enabled computer by first setting up your computer,  
then setting up your iPAQ Pocket PC.  
If you own an HP Evo Notebook or Desktop computer, you can  
use the Bluetooth Multiport Module presinstalled on that  
computer with your iPAQ Pocket PC.  
If you are using other Bluetooth modules or cards on your  
computer, refer to the Bluetooth Configuration Manager or  
Settings for similar setup procedures, then skip to “Setting Up an  
ActiveSync Partnership on Your iPAQ Pocket PC.”

Using the Wireless LAN  
Getting Acquainted  
Your iPAQ Pocket PC can connect to an 802.11b Wireless LAN  
(WLAN) or connect directly to other WLAN-enabled devices.  
With WLAN, you can:  
Access the Internet  
Send and receive e-mail  
Access corporate network information  
Use virtual private networks (VPN) for secure remote access  
Use hot spots for wireless connectivity  
Note: Use of dial-up and wireless Internet, e-mail, corporate  
networks, and other wireless communications, such as  
Bluetooth-enabled devices, may require separately purchased  
additional hardware and other compatible equipment, in addition  
to a standard Wireless LAN (WLAN) infrastructure and a  
separately purchased service contract. Check with your service  
provider for availability and coverage in your area. Not all web  
content may be available. Some web content may require  
installation of additional software.

Definition  
Wireless Access Point  
The access point provides a wireless  
connection to a network (additional  
hardware).  
Infrastructure  
This connection mode uses wireless  
access points to connect to networks.  
Device-to-computer or  
ad-hoc  
This mode does not use access points.  
It is used in peer-to-peer network  
communications. All peers must be  
configured on the same channel.  
Hot spots  
Public or private areas where there is a  
wireless access point available.  
SSID or Network Name SSID is the acronym for the service set  
identifier. This identification number uses a  
maximum number of 32 characters and is  
case sensitive.  
Encryption (WEP) or  
IEEE 802.1X  
A set of security services used to protect  
802.11 networks from unauthorized
