Page 164 Setting Preferences for Your Handheld
Date and Time preferences
The Date and Time Preferences screen enables you to set the date,
time, time zone, and Daylight Saving option on your handheld.
See “Customizing your handheld” in Chapter 1 for information about
using this screen.
Connection preferences
The Connection Preferences screen enables you to define the settings
used to connect your handheld to other devices. The screen displays a
list of available configurations that are ready to be further defined; the
list varies depending on the kind of software you’ve added to your
handheld.
For example, a modem connection appears on the list. If you have this
modem, you only need to specify the phone setup (and network
connection, if required) to complete the configuration.
Note: You can purchase a PalmModem accessory for use with your
handheld. See http://www.palm.com .
You can also create custom configurations, which include the
following:
PC via Cradle/Cable: A local HotSync connection:
the direct connection between your handheld and
your desktop computer. Your handheld is
connected by its universal connector to the
cradle/cable, and the cradle/cable is attached to
a USB port of your desktop computer. (If you are
using the optional serial cradle/cable, it attaches
to a serial (COM) port of your computer.)
Modem via Cradle/Cable: A cable connection
between your handheld’s universal connector
and a modem for dialing in to a modem that is
part of your computer or laptop.
PC via Infrared: A connection between the IR port
of your handheld and the infrared device of your
computer or laptop.
