5 Learning the Basics

Get started with your HP iPAQ by learning basic functions such as entering text, knowing the Home screen, synchronization, and troubleshooting.

Home Screen

The Home screen displays the date and time and provides a quick status of the remaining battery capacity, upcoming appointments, your current profile, and the number of unread text messages. From the Home screen, scroll and select the cellular carrier and Wi-Fi connection status display module to open the Wireless Manager. Next, press All to turn all wireless connections on/off. At the top of the Home screen are the connectivity icons, the volume indicator, and the clock. The top of the Home screen also displays the icons of the last ten programs you used so that you can quickly recall them.

Use the Home screen to do the following:

●Access all applications and settings by pressing Start.

●Auto Turn Off the Backlight — Press Start > Settings > More… > Power Management. Specify a short amount of time to wait before turning off the backlight. Set Backlight time out on battery to 5 to 10 seconds and Display time out to 30 seconds.
