Using the Fingerprint Reader

You can increase the security of the data stored in your iPAQ Pocket PC by using the iPAQ Fingerprint Reader. This feature allows you to require a PIN, password, and/or fingerprint be entered before you can log on to your iPAQ Pocket PC.

ÄCAUTION: In the event that an incorrect or unsuccessful PIN, password, and/or fingerprint is repeatedly or incorrectly entered, all data and programs stored in RAM are erased and the iPAQ Pocket PC is returned to the as-shipped configuration. It is recommended that you back up all data frequently when using the security features.

It is recommended that you complete the fingerprint reader training on your iPAQ Pocket PC prior to changing your security settings.
