System Tab

The System tab enables you to verify and sometimes alter system parameters. To access the System tab, go to Start > Settings > System tab. Tap the appropriate icon to open that system setting.

About

The About system setting displays specific information about what is loaded on the terminal. It contains three tabs:

Version tab	Displays the information about the software, operating system, and processor of the terminal.
Device ID tab	Displays the information the terminal uses to identify itself to other devices. It can be important to
	know this information if the Dolphin terminal is going to be part of a networked system of devices.
	Device name:	Displays the system’s default name. This is the name used by ActiveSync.
	Description:	Displays the description of the device ID.
Copyrights tab	Displays important copyright information.

Backlight

The Backlight system setting enables you to customize backlight functionality for the display. For more information, see Adjusting the Backlight on page 4-3.

Certificates

This system setting is designed to manage certificates for 802.11b networks. However, on Dolphin terminals, you manage certificates through Meetinghouse; see Installing Certificates with CertAdd on page 9-29..

ClearType Tuner

This system setting enables you to adjust the level ClearType font rendering by moving a slider. The sample text displays the setting results immediately. Of course, you must first enable ClearType font rendering to change the appearance of fonts on the screen; see ClearType Tab on page 7-13..

Clock & Alarms

This setting sets the system clock. Appointments, scheduled events, and any function on a schedule runs off this setting. You need to set the time zone and time after each hard reset; see Setting the Time and Date on page -7.
