Sybase DC00297-01-0670-01 manual Link Depth, Include Images

Managing channels on the desktop computer

Some channels are very large and consume a large portion of the available memory on a mobile device. By entering a size limit, you prevent the channel from growing beyond that limit.

If a channel's pages total up more than the size you specify here, some pages will not be downloaded in a synchronization. 100KB should be a large enough size limit for getting started with your first channel.

Note

The Channel Size Limit setting works together with the Link Depth setting. If Channel Size Limit is reached first, it supersedes Link Depth. If Link Depth is reached first, it supersedes Channel Size Limit.

Link Depth

Specifies the number of levels of links to follow from the channel's main page. If you set this to 0, for example, M-Business Sync Server returns only the page for the main location of the channel. If you set this to 1, it follows the links on the main page and downloads all of those pages as well. The greater the link depth, the more pages your channel downloads, which consumes more memory. It is rarely a good idea to set the link depth to greater than 1 or 2.

Set the Link Depth to the level beyond the channel's home page that should be downloaded in a synchronization.

Note

The Channel Size Limit setting works together with the Link Depth setting. If Channel Size Limit is reached first, it supersedes Link Depth. If Link Depth is reached first, it supersedes Channel Size Limit.

Include Images

Controls whether images are omitted from a channel. Deselecting this option reduces the memory that a channel consumes. If you deselect this option, your device will not download images, even if they are on a Handheld Friendly page.
