Setting Preferences for Your Handheld

Entering a password

The Password box identifies the password you use to log into your server or ISP. Your entry in
this field determines whether your handheld prompts you to enter a password each time you log
into your network:

If you do not enter a password, your handheld displays the word “Prompt” in this field and asks
you to enter a password during the login procedure.

If you enter a password, your handheld displays the word “Assigned” in this field and does not
prompt you to enter a password during the login procedure.

Note:

If you are concerned about security, select the Prompt option and do not enter a
password.

To enter a password:

1. Tap the Password field.

2. Enter the password you use to log into your server.

3. Hold Option

and press Return

to finish.

Note:

The Password field updates to display the word “Assigned.”

Selecting a connection

The Connection Preferences settings tell your handheld about the hardware you are using for
remote data connections. For example, you can use a data-enabled mobile phone with an IR port
or a special cable to connect the phone to your handheld. See the section that begins on page
131 for details on how to configure Connection Preferences.

To select a connection:

1. Tap the Connection pick list.

The list displays the configurations in your Connection Preferences panel.
