Setting Preferences for Your Handheld

System, alarm, and game sounds

Your handheld uses a variety of sounds. The System, Alarm, and Game Sound settings enable
you to turn the sounds on or off, to adjust the volume level, and to turn the Alarm LED option on
and off.

To set the system, alarm, and game sounds:

1. Tap the System Sound pick list and select the sound level.

Note:

When you turn off the System Sounds, you also turn off the “chime” tones associated
with the HotSync operation.

2. Tap the Alarm Sound pick list and select the sound level.

3. Tap the Alarm LED pick list and select On if you want the LED to blink for two minutes when

an alarm goes off, or select Off if you don’t want the LED to blink.

4. Tap the Game Sound pick list and select the sound level.

Note:

The Game Sound setting works only with games that are programmed to respond to
this setting. Older games typically do not respond to this setting.

Network Preferences and TCP/IP software

Network Preferences let you set a password, telephone number, DNS number, IP address, as well
as create a login script for remote connections. For example, if you have a data-enabled mobile
phone and want to use the modem inside the phone to connect to the Internet. TCP/IP provides
the ability to connect to your ISP or dial-in server with applications that allow you to view the
transmitted data.

To use TCP/IP software, you must first configure the Connection Preferences and then the
Network Preferences settings. After you configure both of these Preferences, you can establish
a PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol), SLIP (Serial Line Internet Protocol), or CSLIP (Compressed
Serial Line Internet Protocol) connection with your ISP or dial-in server. You can do this either by
using menu commands from the Network Preferences screen or by using a third-party
application.

Selecting a service

Use the Service setting to select the service template for your ISP or a dial-in server. Service
templates are a set of ISP and dial-in server configuration settings that you can create, save, and
reuse.
