`
`
`
`• PalmPilot screen. The PalmPilot screen displays the
`information stored in your PalmPilot, and is touch-sensitive to
`respond to the stylus. The PalmPilot screen also displays
`controls and settings that you use with your applications.
`
`• Graffiti® handwriting recognition software writing area.
`The Graffiti handwriting recognition software writing area is
`the area where you write pen strokes of the Graffiti alphabet.
`Refer to the section entitled "Using the Stylus to Write Text"
`that appears in Chapter 2: Working with the PalmPiior
`Connected Organizer for information about how to write
`Graffiti character strokes.
`
`•
`
`Scroll buttons. The scroll buttons are used to review text
`and other information that extend beyond the area of the
`PalmPilot screen. The lower scroll button is used to "scroll
`down" to review information, and the upper scroll button is
`used to "scroll up" to view the earlier information "above the
`screen."
`
`In the Date Book, these buttons are used to increment the
`day, week or month views.
`
`• Power button. The power button is used to turn your
`PalmPilot on or off_ If PalmPilot is turned off, pressing the
`power button will turn the unit on, and immediately activate
`the last application that was in use (return to the last screen
`you were viewing).
`
`If your PalmPilot is turned on, pressing the power button will
`turn the unit off, helping to conserve battery life.
`
`The power button also controls the PalmPilot organizer's
`backlight feature. Hold the power button down for about two
`seconds to turn the backlight feature on or off_
`
`• Application buttons. The application buttons are used to
`activate the individual PalmPilot applications, and each button
`has a distinctive icon that corresponds to its application. Four
`application buttons appear on the front panel of your

`
`Install the two (2) AAA alkaline batteries into the battery
`compartment. These batteries are supplied with your
`PalmPilot.
`
`A diagram in the interior of the battery compartment shows
`the orientation of the + and - ends of the batteries.
`
`When correctly installed, the batteries will be secured by clips
`in the battery compartment.
`
`4. Replace the battery door. When correctly installed the battery
`door will "click" into position, and be flush with the back of the
`PalmPilot.
`
`page 8
`
`PalmPilot Handbook
`
`Ex. GOOG 1014
`
`
`
`Important: Do not force the battery door. When the batteries are
`correctly installed, the battery door will slide smoothly into
`place. If you feel resistance when replacing the battery door,
`make sure the door is correctly aligned with the slots on the
`back of your PalmPilot, and that the batteries are firmly seated
`in the battery compartment.
`
`About the Backlight Feature
`If you have a PalmPilot model that includes the backlight
`illumination feature, you can activate the backlight when you first
`turn on the power for your PalmPilot.
`
`Note: If you have upgraded your Pilot 1000 or Pilot 5000 organizer
`to the PalmPilot Professional Edition, the backlight feature will not
`be available. In this case, only the ROM software is upgraded.
`You must purchase a new PalmPilot Personal or Professional
`Edition to obtain the backlight feature.
`To activate the backlight feature:
`•
`Press the green power button, and hold it down for about two
`seconds. Release the green power button when the backlight
`illumination appears.
`
`To turn off the backlight feature:
`•
`Press and hold the green power button for about two seconds.
`The backlight feature also turns off automatically with the
`auto-off feature (after a period of inactivity).
`
`In addition, you can use a full-screen pen stroke to activate the
`backlight feature. Refer to the section entitled "Buttons
`Preferences" that appears in Chapter 2: Working with the
`PalmPilotTM Connected Organizer for more information.
`
`Safety, Care, and Maintenance
`Once you have installed the batteries in your PalmPilot, you are
`ready to start PalmPilot for the first time and begin working with
`the unit as described in Chapter 2: Working with the PalmPilot'M
`Connected Organizer.

`
`
`
`The remainder of this chapter contains general information about
`PalmPilot and the PalmPilot Cradle.
`
`Safety Tips
`Your PalmPilot is designed to be rugged and reliable, and will
`provide years of trouble-free service. However, you should
`observe the following general tips when using your PalmPilot:
`
`• Take care not to scratch the screen of your PalmPilot. When
`working with PalmPilot, use the supplied stylus, or plastic(cid:173)
`tipped pens intended for use with a touch-sensitive screen.
`Never use an actual pen or pencil, or other sharp objects on
`the surface of the PalmPilot screen.
`
`• Your PalmPilot is not water proof, and should not be exposed
`to rain or moisture. Under extreme conditions, water may
`enter the circuitry through the front panel buttons. In general,
`treat your PalmPilot as you would a pocket calculator or other
`small electronic instrument.
`
`• The touch-sensitive screen of your PalmPilot contains a glass
`element. Take care not to drop your PalmPilot, or subject it to
`any strong impact. Do not carry the PalmPilot in your back
`pocket: if you sit on it, the glass may break.
`
`•
`
`Protect PalmPilot from temperature extremes. Do not leave
`PalmPilot on the dashboard of a car on a hot day, and keep it
`away from heaters and other heat sources.
`
`• Do not store or use PalmPilot in any location that is extremely
`dusty, damp or wet.
`
`•
`
`If it becomes necessary to clean your PalmPilot, use a soft,
`damp cloth. If the surface of the PalmPilot screen becomes
`soiled, it may be cleaned with a soft cloth moistened with a
`diluted window-cleaning solution.
`
`Battery Life and Considerations
`Please note the following considerations when replacing the
`batteries in your PalmPilot:
`
`page 10
`
`PalmPilot Handbook
`
`Ex. GOOG 1014
`
`
`
`• Under normal conditions, PalmPilot organizer's batteries will
`provide several months of normal use. Battery life can be
`conserved by minimizing the use of the backlight feature, and
`changing the Auto-Off setting that automatically turns the
`PalmPilot off after a period of inactivity (refer to Chapter 2:
`Working with the PalmPilot'M Connected Organizer).
`
`•
`
`If the batteries become low in the course of normal use, an
`alert will appear on the PalmPilot screen, describing the low
`battery condition. If this alert appears, you should perform a
`HotSyncTM synchronization to back up your data with a desktop
`computer before you replace the batteries. This will help
`prevent accidental data loss.
`
`Note: A complete explanation of how to use the HotSync
`feature appears in Chapter 10: HotSyncTM Technology.
`
`• When replacing the batteries, begin by turning the PalmPilot
`off (so there is no screen display). Never remove the batteries
`while the PalmPilot is turned on.
`
`• When replacing the batteries, always use good quality
`batteries of the same type. Use only alkaline batteries with
`your PalmPilot.
`
`• When the batteries are removed, the built-in backup power of
`your PalmPilot will maintain memory data for a period of up
`to one minute. Whenever you remove the batteries, they
`should be replaced immediately. If you encounter any
`difficulties in the course of battery replacement, reinstall the
`original batteries and wait a few minutes for the backup power
`to recharge.
`
`•
`
`•
`
`If the batteries are drained to the point where your PalmPilot
`will not operate, it will safely store your data for about a
`month. In this case, there is enough residual energy in the
`batteries to store the data, but not enough to turn on the
`PalmPilot. If your PalmPilot will not turn on when you press
`the green power button, you should replace the batteries
`immediately.
`
`If you leave the drained batteries in your PalmPilot for an
`extended period of time, all of the stored data will be lost. If
`this happens, replace the batteries and use the reset button to
`
`Chapter 1: The PalmPilotTM Connected Organizer and its Controls

`
`
`
`reset your PalmPilot. Refer to the section entitled "Resetting
`the PalmPilot"' Connected Organizer" in Chapter 12: Reference
`for information about how to use the reset button. Mter you
`reset the PalmPilot, perform a HotSync operation to restore
`the data from your PC.

`
`Ex. GOOG 1014
`
`
`
`'Tap C@nt:er of target:
`
`If necessary, adjust the contrast control located on the side of
`the PalmPilot, so this alignment screen is clear and readable.
`
`3. Remove the stylus from its storage silo on the side of the
`PalmPilot. With the tip of the stylus, tap the exact center of
`each target that appears on the screen.
`
`Tapping these three targets helps to align the internal circuitry
`of your PalmPilot with its touch-sensitive screen.
`
`4. When you have tapped each of the three digitizer alignment
`targets, the General Preferences screen appears, as shown in
`the following diagram:
`
`Set Tim@: ~.= . .q_~,.Ej

`Alarm Sound: ~
`Game Sound: D
`
`Warning: After you have completed the previous procedure, you
`must install the PalmPilot Desktop software on your desktop
`computer, and then perform a HotSync synchronization. This will
`ensure that the latest updates are transferred to your PalmPilot.
`Refer to Chapter 9: Installing PalmPilot™ Desktop Software and
`Chapter 10: Hot Sync TM Technology for these procedures.
