Powering Your hp Jornada  
Because the data and files you save on your hp Jornada are stored in  
RAM, maintaining a continuous power supply to the hp Jornada at all  
times is extremely important. If your hp Jornada runs out of power, all  
information stored in RAM is lost. The preinstalled programs will not be  
deleted even if your hp Jornada suffers a loss of power; however, any  
custom settings and programs you have added will be erased.  
To safeguard data against loss in the event of power failure, you can save or  
back up files to the hp safe store folder. The hp emergency backup application  
automatically saves your PIM databases to the hp safe store folder. For more  
information, see “Backing Up and Restoring Data” and “Managing Memory” in  
chapter 6.  
Your hp Jornada receives power from three sources: the main battery, the  
backup battery, and the ac power adapter. The following sections  
describe these sources. For tips on extending battery life, see “Managing  
Power” in chapter 6.  
Main Battery  
The hp Jornada lithium-polymer battery pack (the main battery) provides  
power to your hp Jornada while it is not connected to ac power. Under  
typical usage conditions (if you do not use the backlight), the fully charged  
main battery should provide power for up to 14 hours of use. Actual  
battery life will vary depending on how you use your hp Jornada. Some  
functions, such as listening to music, using the backlight, or operating  
CompactFlash cards, use considerable power and may reduce this time  
significantly.  
The hp Jornada extended battery pack, which offers twice the battery life of the  
standard battery, is available as an optional accessory.  
The main battery is charged whenever your hp Jornada is connected to an  
ac power source—either the ac adapter or the USB cradle. Connect your  
hp Jornada to ac power or place it in the cradle when it is not in use, to  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Chapter 2 | Getting Started | 15  
ensure that the battery is fully charged when you need to take it with you.  
Charging the main battery takes approximately 3.5 hours. When the  
battery is fully charged, charging stops automatically; the battery will not  
overcharge if left connected to ac power.  
When the main battery charge is low, a low battery warning is displayed. If you  
see a low battery warning message, connect to ac power and charge the main  
battery immediately to avoid draining the backup battery, and prevent possible  
data loss.  
Backup Battery  
The CR-2032 coin-cell backup battery protects your data when the main  
battery runs out of power. The backup battery does not provide enough  
power to operate your hp Jornada, but it will preserve your data for up to  
1 day after the low main battery warning is displayed. Connect to ac  
power to recharge the main battery.  
The backup battery is not recharged while your hp Jornada is connected to  
ac power. When you see a warning message indicating that the backup  
battery is low, you should replace the backup battery as soon as possible.  
To replace the backup battery, follow the instructions in step 2 under  
“Using Your hp Jornada for the First Time,” earlier in this chapter.  
To prevent loss of data, replace the backup battery as soon as a warning  
message appears on your screen indicating that backup battery power is low.  
Do not mutilate, puncture, or dispose of batteries in fire. The batteries can burst  
or explode, releasing hazardous chemicals. Discard used batteries according to  
the manufacturer’s instructions.  
AC Power  
To avoid running out of battery power, you can operate your hp Jornada  
on ac power using the supplied ac adapter. The ac adapter accepts  
100 V to 240 V, enabling you to connect to ac power anywhere in the  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
16 | hp Jornada 560 series personal digital assistant User’s Guide  
world. When you travel, you may need adapters to accommodate different  
electrical outlets, but the hp Jornada ac adapter will safely convert ac line  
voltage to the dc voltage required by your hp Jornada.  
While your hp Jornada is connected to ac power, the main battery is  
charged automatically. The color of the LED indicates the status of the  
battery: amber indicates that the battery is charging, and green indicates  
that the battery is fully charged.  
If you will not be using your hp Jornada for an extended period of time, be sure  
to charge the main battery fully (or connect to ac power) before you store your  
hp Jornada.  
Turning Your hp Jornada On and Off  
One of the most convenient features of hp Jornada is “instant on.” With  
instant on, there is no waiting for your hp Jornada to start up or shut down;  
you can start working immediately by pressing the power button or one of  
the hp hot keys.  
You can also turn on your hp Jornada simply by tapping the touch screen. On  
the Power Preferences page in hp settings, select the Tap screen to power  
on check box.  
When you are finished working, turn off your hp Jornada by pressing the  
power button. By default, your hp Jornada will turn off automatically after  
1 minute of inactivity if it is not connected to an ac power source. You can  
use the Power control panel to change these settings. On the Start menu,  
tap Settings, tap the System tab, and then tap the Power icon.  
Using the Hardware Buttons  
The hardware buttons on your hp Jornada (that is, the buttons on the  
device itself, rather than buttons or icons that appear on the display) can  
each be used to perform several functions, such as turning on your hp  
Jornada or starting a particular program.  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Chapter 2 | Getting Started | 17  
The features associated with each button are described below. In addition,  
most buttons can be reassigned or configured to start a program that you  
designate. For more information, see “Configuring Hardware Buttons” in  
chapter 6.  
Notification Button/LED  
A blinking green LED indicates an alarm or reminder.  
When your hp Jornada is connected to ac power, a solid green LED  
indicates that the main battery is fully charged.  
A blinking amber LED indicates that your hp Jornada is on; however,  
the display is off. Press and hold the notification button/LED to turn the  
display on again.  
A solid amber LED indicates that your hp Jornada is recording a voice  
note.  
While your hp Jornada is connected to ac power, an amber LED may  
also indicate that the main battery is charging.  
Press the notification button/LED to acknowledge an alarm or  
reminder and to silence the alarm.  
Press and hold the notification button/LED to turn off the display.  
Up/Down Control  
Press the up/down control to scroll through documents or to highlight  
items in a list.  
Record Button  
Press and hold the record button to turn on your hp Jornada and begin  
recording a voice note. If the speaker is not muted, a beep indicates  
that recording has started.  
Release the record button to stop recording. If the speaker is not  
muted, a double beep indicates that recording has stopped.

Caring for Your hp Jornada  
When treated properly, your hp Jornada will be a reliable personal digital  
assistant. Follow these tips to ensure long and trouble-free use of your hp  
Jornada:  
Protect the screen. Pressing too hard on the touch screen may  
damage the screen. Use the stylus to tap the hp Jornada screen to  
avoid scratches or damage to the screen. To clean the screen, use a  
small amount of commercial glass cleaner sprayed on a soft cloth.  
Avoid spraying the screen directly.  
Be sure to turn off your hp Jornada before cleaning the touch screen. If your hp  
Jornada is set to power on when you tap the screen, change this setting before  
you clean the touch screen.

Do not drop your hp Jornada. Dropping your hp Jornada can  
cause damage to delicate components such as the display. Accidental  
damage is not covered under the warranty.  
Avoid radiated interference. Radiated interference from other  
electronic equipment may affect the appearance of the display of your  
hp Jornada. Removing the source of the interference will return the  
display to normal.  
Avoid high temperatures. Your hp Jornada is designed to  
operate at temperatures between 0 to 40 ºC (32 to 104 ºF).  
Subjecting the device to temperatures outside this range may damage  
the unit or result in loss of data. Be especially careful not to leave your  
hp Jornada in direct sunlight or in a car where temperatures can rise  
to harmful levels.

confused with the word above. Write periods and commas above the  
line.  
For better recognition, use the Tools menu to increase the zoom level  
to 300%.  
Write the letters of a word close together and leave big gaps between  
words.

Chapter 3 | Overview of Windows for Pocket PC | 39  
Hyphenated words, foreign words that use special characters such as  
accents, and some punctuation cannot be converted.  
If you add writing to a word to change it (such as changing a “3” to  
an “8”) after you attempt to recognize the word, the writing you add  
will not be included if you attempt to recognize the writing again.  
Drawing on the Screen  
You can draw on the screen in the same way that you write on the screen.  
The difference between writing and drawing on the screen is how you  
select items and how they can be edited. For example, selected drawings  
can be resized, while writing cannot.  
To create a drawing  
Cross three ruled lines on your first stroke. A drawing box  
appears. Subsequent strokes in or touching the drawing box  
become part of the drawing. Drawings that do not cross three  
ruled lines will be treated as writing.

Recording a Message  
In any program where you can write or draw on the screen, you can also  
quickly capture thoughts, reminders, and phone numbers by recording a  
message. In Calendar, Tasks, and Contacts, you can include a recording  
in the Notes tab. In the Notes program, you can either create a stand-  
alone recording or include a recording in a written note. If you want to  
include the recording in a note, open the note first. In the Inbox program,

Recording Formats  
Your hp Jornada supports several formats for voice notes. The formats vary  
in both the quality of the recording and the size of the sound file. When  
selecting a recording format, you should consider the quality you need as  
well as how much storage memory the recording will use on your hp  
Jornada.  
Not all recording formats are compatible with other software or computers.  
If you will share your recordings with others or transfer a recording to your  
desktop PC, be sure to choose a recording format that is supported by the  
software used to play recordings on the other computer.  
The PCM format offers the highest quality recording, and is compatible  
with all hp Jornada models, other Windows-powered mobile devices, and

4 | Connecting to Your Desktop PC  
To get the most from your hp Jornada, you will want to connect to your  
desktop or notebook PC. This chapter describes how to establish the  
connection between your hp Jornada and your desktop PC, and how to  
synchronize and transfer files between your hp Jornada and your desktop  
(or any PC that has Microsoft ActiveSync installed). In this chapter, you will  
learn to  
Install Microsoft ActiveSync on your desktop PC.  
Use ActiveSync to synchronize data between your hp Jornada and  
desktop PC.  
Connect your hp Jornada to your desktop PC using either the USB  
cradle or the infrared port.  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
48 | hp Jornada 560 series personal digital assistant User’s Guide  
Microsoft ActiveSync  
Microsoft ActiveSync enables you to synchronize the information on your  
desktop PC with the information on your hp Jornada. In addition, you can  
back up data from your hp Jornada to your desktop PC and restore this  
data to your hp Jornada, and copy files between your hp Jornada and  
desktop PC.  
Before you begin synchronization, install ActiveSync on your desktop PC  
from the Pocket PC Companion CD. ActiveSync is already installed on  
your hp Jornada.  
After installation is complete, the ActiveSync Setup Wizard helps you  
connect your hp Jornada to your desktop PC, set up a partnership so you  
can synchronize information between your hp Jornada and your desktop  
computer, and customize your synchronization settings. Your first  
synchronization process will begin automatically when you finish using the  
wizard.  
Synchronizing Data  
Synchronization compares the data on your hp Jornada with your desktop  
PC and updates both computers with the most recent information. For  
example, you can  
Synchronize Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel files between your  
hp Jornada and desktop PC. Your files are automatically converted to  
the correct format.  
Synchronize e-mail messages in your hp Jornada Inbox with e-mail  
messages in Microsoft Outlook on your desktop PC.  
Copy favorite Web site addresses and any Web pages you have  
marked for offline viewing in Microsoft Internet Explorer to your hp  
Jornada.  
Keep your Pocket Outlook Contacts, Calendar, and Tasks databases  
up-to-date by synchronizing your hp Jornada with Microsoft Outlook  
data on your desktop PC.  
Synchronization with Microsoft Outlook 2002 requires ActiveSync 3.5 on the  
desktop PC.  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Chapter 4 | Connecting to Your Desktop PC | 49  
After you synchronize, the information you have stored on your desktop PC  
is copied to your hp Jornada so you can take it with you when you go.  
Use ActiveSync options to select which information types are synchronized  
and to control how much data is synchronized. For example, if you choose  
to synchronize Calendar data, you can specify how many weeks of past  
appointments you want synchronized. By default, ActiveSync does not  
automatically synchronize all types of information. Use ActiveSync options  
to turn synchronization on and off for specific information types.  
After you have set up ActiveSync and completed the first synchronization,  
you can control when synchronization occurs by selecting a  
synchronization mode. For example, you can synchronize continually  
while your hp Jornada is in the cradle, or only when you choose the  
Synchronize command.  
To start synchronization from your hp Jornada  
1. Connect your hp Jornada to your desktop PC. For more  
information, see “Connecting Your hp Jornada,” below.  
2. On the Start menu, tap ActiveSync.  
3. Tap  
to begin synchronization.

For detailed instructions on setting ActiveSync options and using  
ActiveSync on your desktop PC, see ActiveSync Help on the desktop PC.  
For more information on using ActiveSync on your hp Jornada, see  
ActiveSync Help on your hp Jornada.  
Synchronizing from a Remote Location  
You can also synchronize while your hp Jornada is connected to your  
desktop PC using a dial-up modem connection or over a network.1 This can  
be useful if you need to synchronize files or PIM information while  
traveling. Before you leave, you must configure both your hp Jornada and  
your desktop PC.  
1 Requires an optional modem and/or an account with an Internet service  
provider.

Chapter 4 | Connecting to Your Desktop PC | 51  
On your hp Jornada  
Create a partnership between your hp Jornada and the desktop PC using  
one of the direct connection methods (USB cradle or infrared connection)  
described in this chapter. You must also configure a connection on your hp  
Jornada, as described in chapter 5, “Connecting to the Internet or to a  
Network.“  
On your desktop PC  
Before you can synchronize remotely, the desktop PC or network server  
must be configured to allow your hp Jornada to connect. Depending on the  
version of Windows running on the desktop PC, you may need to install  
and configure Remote Access Services or Dial-Up Networking on the  
desktop PC.  
You must also ensure that ActiveSync is configured to allow a network  
connection. For more information, see ActiveSync Help on your desktop  
PC.  
Follow these steps to prepare your desktop PC before you leave:  
If you are using a modem on your desktop PC, turn the modem on  
before you leave.  
Leave your desktop PC on, and be sure you logged on under the same  
user name that you used when you created the partnership.  
Ensure your PIM program and e-mail program (Microsoft Outlook or  
Microsoft Exchange) are running.  
If you receive an error message on your hp Jornada that states that an  
information type needs attention, or if unresolved items are reported after  
synchronization, you must synchronize directly with your desktop PC using

may need to be converted before you can use them on your desktop PC.  
By default, ActiveSync automatically converts files to the appropriate type;  
however, you can choose not to convert files, or you can choose to specify  
the conversion for each type of file by changing options in ActiveSync.  
Backing Up Data with ActiveSync  
To prevent loss of data, you should back up your hp Jornada frequently  
using either Microsoft ActiveSync or the hp backup application. When you  
back up your hp Jornada using ActiveSync, the backup file contains all the  
files, databases, PIM information, and RAM-based programs on your hp  
Jornada. The backup file is stored on your desktop PC.  
hp backup enables you to back up your PIM databases to a CompactFlash  
memory card or to the hp safe store folder on your hp Jornada. For more  
information on hp backup and hp emergency backup, see “Backing Up and  
Restoring Data” in chapter 6.  
If you have established a partnership between your hp Jornada and  
desktop PC, you can set ActiveSync to back up data automatically each  
time you connect. You can also back up your hp Jornada manually any  
time you want. ActiveSync lets you decide whether to back up all data  
each time, or only new and updated information.  
When you use the backup file to restore data to your hp Jornada, data on  
your hp Jornada is replaced with the data stored in the backup file. If you  
have created files on your hp Jornada since the last backup and do not  
want to delete these files during the restore process, move the files from  
your hp Jornada to your desktop PC before restoring data. You can restore  
data using ActiveSync or the hp backup application.  
Restoring data from ActiveSync replaces all data stored on your hp Jornada.  
Any data added after the backup file was created will be lost.  
For more information on backing up and restoring data using Microsoft  
ActiveSync, see ActiveSync Help on your desktop PC.

Connecting your hp Jornada  
Your hp Jornada gives you several options for connecting to a remote  
computer. You can use an optional CompactFlash card modem, an  
infrared modem, or a mobile phone. Each of these methods requires  
purchase of a modem or adapter as an optional accessory. For more  
information about compatible modems and accessories, visit the hp  
Jornada Web site at www.hp.com/jornada.  
Connecting with a CompactFlash Card  
Your hp Jornada supports a variety of CompactFlash card modems and  
network interface cards (NICs). Whether you use a CompactFlash modem  
or CompactFlash NIC, the card must be a CompactFlash Type I or  
CompactFlash Type I extended card. For a list of compatible  
CompactFlash cards, go to the hp Jornada accessories page at  
www.hp.com/jornada. For instructions on how to install a CompactFlash  
card in your hp Jornada, see “Accessories” in Chapter 6.  
Many NICs also require that you install a software driver. The card manu-  
facturer must provide a software driver for the hp Jornada. Follow the card  
manufacturer’s instructions for installing the card and configuring the driver  
for use with your hp Jornada.  
After you have installed and configured the card, the make and model of  
the card will appear in the list of modems or the list of network adapters  
when you create a new connection (see “Creating an ISP or Network  
Connection,” later in this chapter).  
When you are ready to connect, connect the CompactFlash card to an  
analog telephone line or a network connection using the appropriate  
cable. Follow the card manufacturer’s instructions to attach the cable to the  
port on the card.  
Do not connect a CompactFlash modem to a digital telephone line unless it is  
specifically designed for use with a digital line.

Chapter 5 | Connecting to the Internet | 59  
Connecting with an Infrared Modem  
You can also use the infrared port on your hp Jornada to connect to the  
Internet or a remote computer via an IrDA-compatible infrared modem.  
When you create a new dial-up connection, select Generic IrDA  
modem from the modem list. Connect the modem to a phone line  
according to the manufacturer’s instructions, and align the infrared port on  
your hp Jornada with the infrared port on the modem before dialing the  
call.  
Connecting with a Mobile Phone  
If your mobile phone service supports remote data connection, you can use  
the mobile phone to connect your hp Jornada to the Internet or to a remote  
computer. Depending on the make and model of your mobile phone, you  
can connect your hp Jornada to the mobile phone using either a Compact-  
Flash card interface or the infrared port.  
CompactFlash Connectivity Kit  
You may be able to obtain a CompactFlash Type I or Type I extended  
connectivity kit from the manufacturer of your phone, or from a third-party  
manufacturer. In either case, the kit must be designed to work with the  
specific model of your phone, and the manufacturer must provide a driver  
for use with the hp Jornada.  
After you have installed and configured the card, the make and model of  
the card will appear in the list of modems or the list of network adapters  
when you create a new connection (see “Creating an ISP or Network  
Connection,” later in this chapter).  
Via Infrared  
If your mobile phone has a built-in IrDA-compatible infrared port (or if an  
optional infrared connectivity kit is available for your phone), you can use  
the infrared port on your hp Jornada to connect. When you create a new  
dial-up connection, select Generic IrDA modem from the modem list.  
Align the infrared port on your hp Jornada with the infrared port on the  
mobile phone before dialing the call. For detailed instructions on how to  
establish a wireless connection using a mobile phone, check the hp

Creating an ISP or Network Connection  
To connect to a network or the Internet, you need an account with an ISP,  
an account on your corporate network, or access permission to dial in to a  
specific computer.  
For each account, you will need a user name and password provided by  
the ISP or account administrator. If you are connecting to a commercial  
ISP, you will also need to know the dial-up telephone number, and IP and  
DNS addresses (if required).  
If you plan to use the account to send or receive e-mail messages directly  
from your hp Jornada, you must also obtain the following information from  
your ISP or account administrator:  
A user name and password for your e-mail account. (These may be  
different from the user name and password you use to connect.)  
The name of the POP3 or IMAP4 server (for incoming messages).  
The name of the SMTP server (for outgoing messages).  
Before you can use a modem to connect to an ISP or to dial in to a specific  
desktop PC, you must create a connection for that service on your hp  
Jornada. If you use an NIC to connect to a corporate network, you must  
configure your network connection. Your hp Jornada will recognize the  
connection after you attach the network cable to the NIC.

Synchronizing E-mail Messages  
You can synchronize e-mail messages as part of the general  
synchronization process whenever you connect your hp Jornada to your  
desktop PC. First, you must enable Inbox synchronization in ActiveSync.  
For information on enabling Inbox synchronization, see ActiveSync Help  
on the desktop PC.  
During synchronization, the following occurs:  
Messages are copied from the mail folders of Exchange or Outlook on  
your desktop PC to the ActiveSync folder in Inbox on your hp Jornada.  
By default, you will receive messages from the past 3 days only, the  
first 100 lines of each message, and file attachments of less than 100  
KB in size.  
E-mail messages in the Outbox folder on your hp Jornada are  
transferred to Exchange or Outlook, and then sent from those  
programs.  
E-mail messages in subfolders must be selected in ActiveSync on your  
desktop PC in order to be transferred.  
Connecting Directly to an E-mail Server  
In addition to synchronizing e-mail messages with your desktop PC, you  
can send and receive e-mail messages by using a modem or network  
connection and Inbox on your hp Jornada.  
In addition to the creating a connection to a network or an ISP, you must  
set up an e-mail “service” in Inbox.  
The ISP or network must use a POP3 or IMAP4 e-mail server and an SMTP  
gateway.  
To set up an e-mail service  
In Inbox, tap Services, and then tap New Service. Follow the  
directions in the New Service Wizard.  
You can use multiple e-mail services to receive your messages. For each e-  
mail service you intend to use, first set up and name the e-mail service. If

you use the same service to connect to different mailboxes, set up a  
separate service for each mailbox.  
To connect to an e-mail service  
In Inbox, tap Services, and then tap Connect.  
When you connect to the e-mail server, new messages are downloaded to  
the Inbox folder on your hp Jornada, messages in the Outbox folder are  
sent, and messages that have been deleted on the e-mail server are  
removed from the Inbox folder on your hp Jornada.  
Messages that you receive directly from an e-mail server are linked to your  
e-mail server rather than your desktop PC. When you delete a message on  
your hp Jornada, it is also deleted from the e-mail server the next time you  
connect based on the settings you selected in ActiveSync.  
You can work online or offline. When working online, you read and  
respond to messages while connected to the e-mail server. Messages are  
sent as soon as you tap Send, which saves space on your hp Jornada.  
When working offline, you should download new message headers or  
partial messages, and then you can disconnect from the e-mail server while  
you decide which messages to download completely. The next time you  
connect, Inbox downloads any messages you marked for retrieval and  
sends the messages in your Outbox folder.

Managing E-mail Messages and Folders  
By default, messages are displayed in one of five folders for each service  
you have created: Inbox, Deleted Items, Drafts, Outbox, and Sent Items.  
The Deleted Items folder contains messages that have been deleted on your  
hp Jornada. The behavior of the Deleted and Sent Items folders depends  
on the options you have chosen. In the message list, tap Tools, and then  
tap Options. On the Message tab, select your options.  
You can organize messages into additional folders. To create new folders,  
tap Tools, and then tap Manage Folders. To move a message to  
another folder, in the message list, tap and hold the message, and then  
tap Move to on the pop-up menu.  
Folder Behavior with a Direct Connection to an E-mail Server  
The behavior of the folders you create depends on whether you are using  
ActiveSync, POP3, or IMAP4:  
If you use ActiveSync, e-mail messages in the Inbox folder in Outlook  
will automatically be synchronized with your hp Jornada. You can  
select to synchronize additional folders by designating them for  
ActiveSync. The folders you create and the messages you move will  
then be mirrored on the server. For example, if you move two  
messages from the Inbox folder to a folder named Family, and you  
have designated Family for synchronization, the server creates a copy  
of the Family folder and copies the messages into that folder. You can  
then read the messages while away from your desktop computer.  
If you use POP3 and you move e-mail messages to a folder you  
created, the link is broken between the messages on the device and  
their copies on the mail server. The next time you connect, the mail  
server will see that the messages are missing from the device Inbox  
and delete them from the server. This prevents you from having  
duplicate copies of a message, but it also means that you will no  
longer have access to messages that you move to folders created from  
anywhere except the device.

If you use IMAP4, the folders you create and the e-mail messages you  
move are mirrored on the server. Therefore, messages are available to  
you any time you connect to your mail server, whether it is from your  
device or desktop computer. This synchronization of folders occurs  
whenever you connect to your mail server, create new folders, or  
rename/delete folders when connected.

Managing Power  
Because the data and files you save on your hp Jornada are stored in  
RAM, maintaining a continuous power supply to the hp Jornada at all  
times is extremely important. If your hp Jornada runs out of power, all  
information stored in RAM is lost. Although Microsoft Windows for Pocket  
PC and the preinstalled programs will not be erased, any information you  
have entered, programs you have added, and custom settings are erased  
if you lose power.  
Data stored in the hp safe store folder or on a CompactFlash card will be  
saved, even if your hp Jornada loses power. To protect your data, use hp  
backup to back up regularly to the hp safe store folder or to a CompactFlash  
card.  
How long you can operate your hp Jornada without recharging the battery  
depends on the features and functions you use most. Under typical usage  
conditions, the battery included with your hp Jornada will provide  
approximately 14 hours of use (without the backlight). Note that some  
functions, such as listening to music or using CompactFlash cards, use  
considerable power and may reduce this time significantly.  
When your hp Jornada displays a dialog box warning of low power, you  
should respond as soon as possible by recharging the main battery or  
replacing the backup battery. If you continue to use your hp Jornada until  
power reaches a critical low condition, a “Battery very low” message  
appears, and the hp Jornada shuts down automatically. You will be unable  
to use your hp Jornada until you connect to external power for charging.  
The backup battery does not provide enough power to operate your hp  
Jornada; it is intended only to preserve your data for a short time until you  
can recharge the main battery.  
Because the main battery is charged automatically whenever your hp  
Jornada is connected to ac power, simply connect the ac power adapter  
or place your hp Jornada in the USB cradle to recharge it when the power  
is low. While your hp Jornada is connected to ac power, the notification  
button/LED indicates the charging status:  
Amber indicates that the battery is charging (connected to ac power).  
Green indicates that the battery is fully charged.

Chapter 6 | Configuring and Optimizing Your hp Jornada | 79  
To check the remaining power  
1. On the Start menu, tap Settings.  
2. On the System tab, tap the Power icon.  
The remaining power is displayed on a status bar in the Power  
control panel.  
Under certain conditions, the Power Status icon is displayed on the Command  
bar in the Today screen. Simply tap the Power Status icon to open the Power  
control panel.  
Power Tips  
Follow these tips to ensure the longest use of your hp Jornada between  
charges:  
Turn off the backlight. Press and hold the power button to turn  
off the backlight, or use the Backlight control panel to set the backlight  
to turn off automatically after a short period of inactivity.  
Turn off the display manually. If you are playing music or  
using other functions that do not require the display, turn off the  
display by pressing and holding the notification button/LED. (Turn on  
the display by pressing and holding the notification button/LED  
again.)  
Suspend frequently. Use the Power control panel to shorten the  
length of continuous idle time before your hp Jornada auto-suspends.  
Press the power button to turn off your hp Jornada when it is not in  
use, even for a short time.  
Always use ac power when connecting your hp Jornada  
to your desktop PC. Note that your hp Jornada will not auto-  
suspend while it is connected.  
Turn off sounds. Use the hp settings application to mute the  
speaker, or use the Sounds & Notifications control panel to turn off all  
but the most necessary system sounds.

80 | hp Jornada 560 series personal digital assistant User’s Guide  
Avoid using CompactFlash card accessories while on  
battery power. Some CompactFlash cards use considerable  
power and will quickly drain your battery.  
Do not “listen” for infrared transfers. Although you can set  
your hp Jornada to constantly monitor the infrared port for files sent  
from other devices, doing so will quickly drain your batteries.  
Use the ac adapter to plug your hp Jornada into external power whenever  
possible, especially when connecting to a desktop PC or when using a  
CompactFlash card modem, NIC, or other peripheral device. Do not let the  
notification button/LED flash for a long time.  
Managing Memory  
Your hp Jornada uses three kinds of memory: the hp safe store folder,  
storage and program memory (RAM), and optional CompactFlash memory  
cards.  
The hp safe store folder  
The hp safe store folder uses nonvolatile memory; that is, it will not be  
erased if your hp Jornada loses power. The hp safe store folder contains  
several preinstalled programs, as well as available storage space that you  
can use to store your most important files or as a location for your backup  
file.  
The hp safe store folder appears under the My Device folder on your hp  
Jornada. Files stored in the hp safe store folder are not included when you  
back up your files using ActiveSync or the hp backup application.  
For more information on backing up your hp Jornada to the hp safe store  
folder, see “Backing Up and Restoring Data” in chapter 6.  
Storage and Program Memory  
The volatile RAM memory on your hp Jornada is allocated between  
storage memory and program memory. The operating system automatically  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Chapter 6 | Configuring and Optimizing Your hp Jornada | 81  
manages the allocation between storage and program memory; however,  
in some situations—such as when memory is low—it may not be able to  
adjust the memory properly. If you receive a message stating that storage  
or program memory is unavailable, try the following solutions.  
To increase storage memory, you can  
Move files or programs into the hp safe store folder. Files in the hp  
safe store folder do not use RAM-based storage memory.  
Buy an optional CompactFlash Type I or Type I extended memory  
card, and move files from internal memory to the card. (For more  
information on using CompactFlash cards, see “Accessories,” later in  
this chapter.)  
Delete unnecessary files.  
Remove Web pages stored for offline viewing in Internet Explorer  
folders.  
Remove programs you no longer use. See “Adding or Removing  
Programs,” later in this chapter.  
Clear program memory. See the section below.  
To increase program memory, you can  
Use hp task switcher or the Memory control panel to stop programs  
you are not currently using. In most cases, programs automatically  
stop to free needed memory. However, in some situations, such as  
when a dialog box is waiting for a response, the program may not be  
able to stop automatically.  
Clear storage memory as described above. This will free some storage  
memory so that it can be reallocated as program memory.  
Remove your hp Jornada from the cradle, remove the CompactFlash  
card (if installed), and reset your hp Jornada. See “Resetting Your hp  
Jornada” in chapter 9.  
To use the Memory control panel to stop programs  
1. Open the Memory control panel, and then tap the Running  
Programs tab to check the state of your active programs.  
2. To stop a running program, select the program in the list, and  
then tap Stop.

2. Tap the Close button  
–or–  
On the pop-up menu, tap Close Window, and then tap a  
program in the list or tap Close All.  
CompactFlash Memory Cards  
CompactFlash memory cards are small, removable flash storage cards that  
enable you to expand the memory of your hp Jornada. You can use  
CompactFlash memory cards for backup storage, archives, or to transfer  
large files to other devices. CompactFlash cards can be purchased from a  
variety of third-party vendors.  
Your hp Jornada supports CompactFlash Type I or Type I extended cards.  
In addition to CompactFlash memory cards, you can buy cards that offer  
additional functionality, such as modems, NICs, cameras, and other  
peripheral devices. For more information, see “Accessories” later in this  
chapter.  
Backing Up and Restoring Data  
To prevent loss of data, you should back up your hp Jornada frequently.  
Your hp Jornada comes with three programs for backing up data:  
Microsoft ActiveSync. ActiveSync enables you to back up data to  
your desktop PC. You can back up all data on your hp Jornada, or  
only your PIM databases (Calendar, Contacts, and Tasks). You can set  
ActiveSync to back up automatically each time you connect, or you  
can back up manually, whenever you choose. For more information,  
see ActiveSync Help on your desktop PC.  
hp backup. The hp backup application enables you to back up all  
data on your hp Jornada, or only your PIM databases and/or e-mail  
messages. You can save the backup file in the hp safe store folder or  
on an optional, removable CompactFlash memory card.  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Chapter 6 | Configuring and Optimizing Your hp Jornada | 83  
hp emergency backup. When you activate hp emergency  
backup, your PIM databases are automatically backed up to the hp  
safe store folder. The backup file is password-protected. After you  
restore your hp Jornada to the factory default settings, you are  
prompted to enter the password and restore the databases.  
Using hp backup  
The hp backup application gives you added flexibility in backing up your  
valuable data. With hp backup, you can back up all data or back up only  
your Calendar, Contacts, Tasks, and Inbox databases. You can save the  
backup file to the hp safe store folder or to an optional CompactFlash  
memory card, so you can safeguard your data even while you are  
traveling or away from your desktop PC.  
You can back up data to internal (RAM) memory on your hp Jornada; however,  
if you restore your hp Jornada to the factory default settings or accidentally lose  
power, the back up file will be erased. To ensure the safety of your data, it is  
recommended that you back up to the hp safe store folder, to a CompactFlash  
memory card, or to your desktop PC.

Restoring Data  
When you use the backup file to restore information, information on your  
hp Jornada is replaced with the information stored in the backup file. If  
you have created files on your hp Jornada since the last backup and do  
not want to delete these files during the restore process, move the files from  
your hp Jornada to your desktop PC—or to an optional CompactFlash  
memory card—before restoring information.  
Depending on the type of backup file, the restore operation replaces all  
information stored in your PIM databases or all data stored on your hp Jornada.  
Any data added after the backup file was created will be lost.  
To restore PIM databases with hp backup  
1. Use hp task switcher to close all running applications. (Press and

Resetting Your hp Jornada  
Occasionally, you may need to reset your hp Jornada; for example, you  
should reset after you restore data from your desktop PC or when the  
operating system stops responding. Resetting your hp Jornada is similar to  
restarting your desktop PC. It restarts the operating system and preserves  
any saved data, but you will lose any unsaved data.  
Reset after restoring data from a backup file or when your hp Jornada  
appears to be “frozen” or “locked up.”  
When you reset, you lose unsaved data in all open documents or programs. Use  
hp task switcher to close all open documents and programs before you reset.  
To reset  
1. Remove your hp Jornada from the cradle.  
2. Remove the CompactFlash card (if installed).  
3. Use the stylus to press the red reset button on the back of the hp  
Jornada, as shown in the following illustration.

Chapter 9 | Troubleshooting | 133  
Restoring Factory Defaults  
In some cases, such as when your hp Jornada does not respond after  
being reset or when you forget your password, you may need to restore  
your hp Jornada to the factory default settings. This erases all data not  
stored in the hp safe store folder or on a CompactFlash memory card. All  
information you have entered in RAM, including all files, system settings,  
and programs you have installed, may be erased.  
To ensure the safety of your information should it be necessary to restore  
the factory defaults, you should regularly back up your data to your  
desktop PC (using ActiveSync), to a CompactFlash card (using the hp  
backup application), or to the hp safe store folder (using the hp emergency  
backup application). For more information on backing up data, see  
“Backing Up and Restoring Data” in chapter 6.  
Restoring the factory default settings erases all files, programs, and data stored  
in RAM. You can restore data from a backup file saved on your desktop  
computer, on a CompactFlash card, or in the hp safe store folder. (For more  
information, see “Backing Up and Restoring Data” in chapter 6, or ActiveSync  
Help on your desktop computer.)  
To restore the factory defaults  
1. Disconnect all cables, including the ac adapter, from your hp  
Jornada.  
2. Remove the backup battery. Use the stylus to hold the backup  
battery lock in the OPEN position, and then slide out the backup  
battery tray.  
3. Remove the main battery.  
4. Wait at least 5 minutes, and then reinstall the main battery,  
reinstall the backup battery, and reconnect the ac adapter. (For  
more information, see “Using Your hp Jornada for the First Time”  
in chapter 2.)  
5. Your hp Jornada should turn on automatically and display the  
Welcome Wizard.  
6. If you have enabled hp emergency backup, you will be prompted  
to restore your PIM databases from the hp safe store folder.  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
134 | hp Jornada 560 series personal digital assistant User’s Guide  
After you restore the factory defaults, you will need to complete the  
Welcome Wizard and reestablish a partnership with your desktop PC. You  
may also want to restore data to your hp Jornada from your most recent  
backup file. For more information, see “Using Your hp Jornada for the First  
Time” in chapter 2, and “Backing Up and Restoring Data” in chapter 6.

Remote Connections  
This section offers troubleshooting help for connecting your hp Jornada to  
other computers. For problems communicating with your desktop PC, see  
ActiveSync Help.  
Able to dial out, but unable to make proper  
connection  
Make sure the network to which you are trying to connect supports Point-to-  
Point Protocol (PPP). Your Internet service provider or network administrator  
can verify this.  
Verify that the dialing location is correct. On the Start menu, tap  
Settings, and then on the Connections tab, tap Connections. On the  
Dialing Locations tab, select the location you are dialing from and  
confirm that the settings are appropriate for that location.  
Modem connection is unreliable  
Make sure the modem is firmly seated and connected to your device and  
the telephone jack.  
Disable Call waiting. On the Start menu, tap Settings, and then on the  
Connections tab, tap Connections. On the Dialing Locations tab,  
select the Disable call waiting check box. Select the disable code  
specified by your telephone company from the drop-down list.

Adjust the room lighting. Some types of light interfere with infrared  
communication. Try moving to a different location or turning off some  
lights.  
Network Connection Problems  
The following solutions may help if you encounter problems when using a  
network card for network connections. Additional troubleshooting  
information is available in Connections Help on the device and ActiveSync  
Help on the desktop PC.  
Verify that your NIC is compatible with the hp Jornada 560 series  
personal digital assistant and that you have installed the proper  
drivers for the hp Jornada.  
In the properties for your network adapter, ensure that you have  
properly configured the IP settings, and the addresses of your DNS  
servers and/or WINS servers. Check with your network administrator  
to determine the proper settings.  
Verify that you have added necessary server information. On the  
Start menu, tap Settings. On the Connections tab, tap Network.  
Tap your installed adapter (usually your Ethernet card's name) and  
enter any necessary information. Most networks use DHCP to assign IP  
addresses dynamically; you should not have to change or enter an IP  
address settings unless your network administrator instructs you to do  
so.  
If Network Connection is not listed as a connection method in the  
ActiveSync dialog box when starting synchronization, wait a few  
minutes and try again. Also, if synchronization does not start right  
away, the network is probably busy, and it may take a minute for your  
device to connect to the network.  
Verify with your network administrator that your user name and  
password are correct.  
Verify with your network administrator that the network you are trying  
to connect to is available, or try to connect to it from another  
computer.

Appendix  
Character Recognition  
Using Character Recognizer, you can write characters directly on your hp  
Jornada screen with your stylus, just as you would on a piece of paper.  
The characters you write are translated into typed text. Use Character  
Recognizer anywhere you want to enter text; for example, to write a note  
or to fill in fields in a dialog box.  
The default writing mode for Character Recognizer is lowercase (Jot-  
compatible) mode. In this mode, you write characters in lowercase. The  
chart at the end of this appendix contains examples of how to write  
characters in lowercase mode. You can also choose to write in uppercase  
(Graffiti-compatible) mode. In this mode, you write characters in  
uppercase. If you prefer to write in uppercase mode, tap Uppercase  
Mode in Options on the input method menu. Whether a letter appears  
in uppercase or lowercase when it is converted to typed text depends on  
where in the Input panel you write it, not on the mode you have selected.  
The Character Recognizer Input panel is divided into three writing areas.  
Letters written in the left area (labeled ABC) create uppercase letters, and  
letters written in the middle area (labeled abc) create lowercase letters.  
Use the right area (labeled 123) for writing numbers, symbols, special  
characters, and punctuation.

160 | hp Jornada 560 series personal digital assistant User’s Guide  
The following chart is a partial display of the characters you can write  
while in lowercase mode (the dot on each character is the starting point for  
writing). Remember that even though you write a letter in its lowercase  
form, the case of the text that is displayed depends on where you write the  
letter. For example, if you write a lowercase “a” in the ABC area, an  
uppercase “A” is displayed on the screen.
