12 Setting preferences for your Acer s10 Network preferences

To set the system and alarm sounds:

NOTE: When you turn off the System Sounds, you can also turn off the ‘chimes’ tones associated with HotSync operations.

2Tap the Alarm Sound pick list and select the sound level.

3Tap the Game Sound pick list and select the sound level.

NOTE: The Game Sound setting typically works only with newer games that are programmed to respond to it. Older games don’t usually respond to this setting.

Setting the LED settings

You can set alarms in Date Book and Clock to remind yourself of important appointments or events. When you enable the LED settings, your Acer s10 LED indicator flashes to notify you of alarms. This is useful for situations where you want the Alarm Sound off, but still be notified of alarms.

To set the LED settings:

• Tap the Alarm LED pick list and select On or Off.

Turning Beam Receive on and off

You can choose to turn off the Beam Receive feature. This prohibits anyone from beaming information to your Acer s10. It also results to a slight saving in battery power.

To change the Beam Receive feature:

• Tap the Beam Receive pick list and select On or Off.

For more information on Beaming, refer to "10 Beaming information" on page 249.

For information on assigning different applications to your Acer s10 buttons, refer to "ShortCuts preferences" on page 294.

Network preferences

The TCP/IP software that is included in your Acer s10 ’s operating system lets you connect with remote Internet Service Providers (ISPs) or dial-in (remote access) servers, using applications that let you view the transmitted data.

To use TCP/IP, you must first create a configuration in Connection Preferences and then create Network preference settings. Then you connect to your ISP or dial-in server.
