Creating a Synchronization Schedule

After you set up your Smartphone to access your corporate E-mail, Calendar, and Contacts, you can create an automated schedule for wirelessly synchronizing the information. You can schedule synchronization of your Smartphone on 2 separate time schedules. Use the peak times schedule to synchronize during working hours or other times you experience higher mail volumes. Use the off-peak schedule to synchronize during times when you experience lower mail volumes. When you are roaming, you can synchronize manually to reduce roaming charges, or you can synchronize using the mobile schedules.

Note: To edit schedule settings, your Smartphone must be disconnected from your desktop computer.

1On the Home screen, select Start.

2Select ActiveSync.

3Select Menu and then Options.

4Select Mobile Schedule.

5Select how often to synchronize in the Peak time sync (during the work day) list. The recommended setting is Every 30 Minutes, or less frequently.

6Select how often to synchronize in the Off-peak time sync (evening and weekends) list. The recommended setting is Manually.

7Select whether or not to synchronize on a schedule in the Roaming sync list. The recommended setting is Manually, because your sync costs will be on a different plan with International Wireless Data Services (GPRS) roaming.

8Select Sync outgoing items as they are sent to synchronize every time you send e-mail.

9Select Done.

The recommended setting for Peak time sync is Every 30 Minutes, or less frequently, for the following reasons:

When your Smartphone is synchronizing (in a data session), you cannot receive cellular service (an incoming call, for example). A less frequent synchronization schedule will reduce the chances that you may miss a call.

Every time you synchronize there is a reduction in battery life. A less frequent synchronization schedule will keep your battery life stronger, for a longer period of time.

You can always initiate a manual sync in case you need to make sure you have the latest information.

Synchronizing Automatically

Note: If you set up more than three e-mail accounts on the Smartphone to synchronize automatically, the settings will automatically revert to manual.

With ActiveSync you can schedule automatic synchronization between your Smartphone and a server every time an item arrives or is changed at the server. Your Smartphone is informed of that event and synchronizes automatically to retrieve those items, making your Smartphone always up-to-date. You must synchronize your Smartphone at least once (such as after creating a partnership) before you can see and change the settings for synchronization as items arrive.
