2.Tap the Messenger tab and check Enable Messaging to turn messaging on so that messages can be sent and received.

If you would like each message you receive to disappear from the screen and be placed in a queue after a certain amount of time, check Enable Timeout of Messages. The time it takes for a message to be queued is set in Planning Mode — go to Tools menu > Options > Live. By default, CoPilot will wait 30 seconds. See Receive/Respond to Messages, p. 87, for retrieval of queued messages.

In this screen you can also indicate how often your current position should be sent to the Live Network. Depending on the plan offered by your wireless data service provider, sending less data at infrequent intervals will be more cost-effective.

3.Tap on the Login tab to enter or change your screen name as it appears on the home/office PC or CoPilot Live Web page. Click Apply after making your entry.

You are now set up for messaging and tracking from within CoPilot in Live Mode. Your screen name can be changed

as many times as you like.

Pocket PC Setup for Live Web Tracking

If you would like access to CoPilot’s Live Network on the Web so that your friends, family, and co-workers can message and track you from anywhere in the world, you’ll need to set up your Pocket PC for web tracking. Once you do this setup, you won’t be able to return to using the CoPilot application (Live Mode) in this way, but you’ll gain the additional security features and functionality provided with the CoPilot Live Network.

The setup for the web is simple. You (the driver) must first create a login account using the CoPilot Live Web login page. Once you have submitted a User Name and Password on the web, you then enter the same user name and password — once only — within the CoPilot application to complete the setup.

1.Go to the CoPilot Live Web login page at http://live.alk.com. Click Create a new account, and enter all the required information including a User Name and Password.

2.Open CoPilot on your Pocket PC. Tap the Tools menu > Live. Follow steps 1-

3on p. 84-85 to enable messaging and tracking.

3.In the Login tab, enter a Screen Name that will identify you to the per- son on the other end for messaging and tracking.

4.Check Use Account Login, then

enter the same User Name and Password you used to create your account on the web (Step 1) and click Apply.

You are now set up for messaging and tracking on the web. Your screen name, user name, and/or password can be changed as many times as you like. However, you’ll need to change your user name or password on the Live Web page before changing them in CoPilot. This is not required for your screen name.
