Getting to Know Your iPAQ Pocket PC  
Using the Stylus  
Your iPAQ Pocket PC comes with a stylus that you should use to  
tap or write on your screen.  
CAUTION: To prevent damage to your iPAQ Pocket PC screen,  
never use any device other than the stylus that comes with the  
Pocket PC or an approved replacement to tap or write on the  
screen. If you lose or break your stylus, you can order extras at  
www.hp.com/products/pocketpc/options.  
Ä
You can perform three basic actions using the stylus:  
Tap—Lightly touch the screen to select or open an item. Lift the  
stylus after you tap an item. Tapping is equivalent to clicking an  
item with the mouse on your personal computer.  
Drag—Place the point of the stylus on the screen and drag an  
item across the screen without lifting the stylus until you have  
completed the selection. Dragging is equivalent to pressing the  
Shift key while dragging your personal computer mouse with the  
mouse button pressed.  
Tap and hold—Hold the stylus pointer on an item for a short  
time until a menu displays. Tapping and holding is equivalent to  
right-clicking your personal computer mouse button. When you  
tap and hold, a circle of red dots appears around the stylus to  
indicate that the menu will soon pop up.

Managing the Battery  
Installing the Battery  
If you remove the main battery from your iPAQ Pocket PC,  
your device does not operate even if you try to use AC power.  
However, 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 within  
10 minutes. If the battery is removed from the unit for longer  
than 10 minutes, you will lose unsaved RAM data and need to  
reset the unit.  
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  
clock. While working at your desk, keep the Pocket PC connected  
to the USB Synchronization Cradle/Charger. When traveling, it is  
recommended that you carry the AC Adapter, Charger Adapter  
plug, or an optional spare battery with you.  
Your iPAQ Pocket PC is shipped with the battery partially  
charged.

them if the battery completely discharges or if the battery is removed  
from the unit for extended periods of time.  
Ä
You do not need to reinstall applications and data installed in the  
iPAQ File Store folder because they are saved in ROM.

Locating and Selecting a Device  
Several tasks require you to locate a device and connect to it.  
When you are required to locate a device, the Bluetooth browser  
assists by searching for your desired function that supports other  
Bluetooth devices.  
Pairing Devices  
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.  
Once 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.
