2 GPS GPS General Information Satellite signal reception for your GPS-enabled HP iPAQ generally requires that you go outdoors to start the GPS navigation software. Place the HP iPAQ where there is a clear view of the sky or on the dashboard of a vehicle that does not have thermal glass windshields or windows. NOTE Interference might take place close to tall buildings or large trees, and under very cloudy or overcast skies, all of which can block the satellite signal from reaching the HP iPAQ.
Verifying Compatibility All HP iPAQ Global Positioning System (GPS) enabled devices come with HP iPAQ compatible GPS navigation software solutions. If you are interested in purchasing additional GPS navigation software to use on your HP iPAQ, check with the GPS software supplier (before you purchase, download, or install any GPS navigation software) to determine that the application is compatible with your specific HP iPAQ model.
Configuring My GPS Software to Connect to My HP iPAQ's GPS Receiver All GPS software applications need to know which communications port to use to access GPS data. Your HP iPAQ already has the GPS port specified for the GPS software applications that came with the device. However, if you install additional GPS applications onto your HP iPAQ, you may need to specify the GPS port in your GPS application's configuration settings.
Managing GPS Automatically Your GPS-enabled HP iPAQ uses Microsoft Windows Mobile 5.0, so the operating system automatically manages access to the HP iPAQ GPS receiver to allow multiple programs to simultaneously access GPS data. If your GPS-enabled HP iPAQ does not automatically discover the GPS receiver on your device, set your GPS application's configuration settings to COM7 and a baud rate of 57600. If you need help, refer to the documentation that came with your GPS software application.
Identifying the COM Port for My GPS Receiver The GPS receiver on your GPS-enabled HP iPAQ is set to COM7 and a baud rate of 57600. ENWW Antenna House XSL Formatter (Evaluation) http://www.antennahouse.
Identifying Your HP iPAQ's Embedded Receiver The GPS receiver in your HP iPAQ is the SiRFstarIII from SiRF and is software upgradeable. The SiRFstarIII is a high sensitivity GPS receiver with rapid time-to-first fix technology that provides superior location performance, so under normal use there is no need for an external antenna. However, an optional external antenna is available if you want to use your HP iPAQ in locations that do not provide ideal GPS reception.
Using an External Antenna with your GPS Receiver Under normal use, there is no need for an external GPS antenna. However, if you want to use your HP iPAQ in locations less favorable for GPS reception, such as inside of a car away from the windshield, you can use an optional 3V active external antenna. Plug this antenna into the gold MMCX connector on the left side of your HP iPAQ. ENWW Antenna House XSL Formatter (Evaluation) http://www.antennahouse.
Losing The GPS Signal While in My Car GPS performance on the HP iPAQ may be affected if the vehicle has thermal glass windows and windshields, which can block the HP iPAQ from receiving a GPS signal from satellites. To improve GPS signal strength, place the HP iPAQ where there is a clear view of the sky or on the dashboard of a vehicle that does not have thermal glass windshields. A direct line of sight is required between the HP iPAQ and the GPS satellites to access information from the satellites.
Losing the GPS Signal Frequently To improve the satellite signal to the GPS-enabled HP iPAQ, go outdoors to start the GPS navigation software. Place the HP iPAQ where there is a clear view of the sky or on the dashboard of a vehicle that does not have thermal glass windshields or windows. NOTE Interference may exist close to tall buildings, large trees, and under very cloudy or overcast skies, all of which can block the satellite signal from reaching the HP iPAQ.
Common Reasons For Interference When Using GPS Software 12 Interference Type How to Avoid Vehicles with thermal glass windows and windshields Place the HP iPAQ where there is a clear view of the sky or on the dashboard of a vehicle that does not have thermal glass windows.

7 Messaging Understanding Messaging To send and receive e-mail messages for an e-mail account that you have with an Internet Service Provider (ISP) or that you access using a VPN server connection (typically a work account), you need to connect to the Internet or your corporate network, depending on the account. You can send and receive Outlook e-mail and Internet e-mail through an Internet Service Provider (ISP). You can also access e-mail from work using a VPN connection.
Using Folders Each Messaging account has its own set of folders with five default Messaging folders: ● Inbox ● Outbox ● Deleted Items ● Drafts ● Sent Items The messages you receive and send through the account are stored in these folders. You can also create additional folders within each account. The way folders work vary by type: 52 ● If you use an Outlook e-mail account, e-mail messages in the Inbox folder in Outlook are synchronized automatically with your device.
Synchronizing E-mail When you synchronize Outlook e-mail on the personal computer with your device, e-mail messages are synchronized as follows: ● Messages in the Inbox folder on your personal computer or Exchange Server are copied to the Inbox folder of the Outlook e-mail account on your device. ● Messages in the Outbox folder on your device are transferred to Exchange Server or Outlook and then sent from those programs.
Setting Up Messaging Accounts Receiving Attachments An attachment sent with an e-mail message or downloaded from the server appears below the subject of the message. Tapping the attachment opens the attachment if it has been fully downloaded or marks it for download the next time you send and receive e-mail. You can also download attachments automatically with your messages if you have an Outlook e-mail or IMAP4 e-mail account. If you have an Outlook e-mail account, do the following: 1.
If the server is running Microsoft Exchange Server 2000 or later, your meeting requests are automatically received in your Inbox. However, to receive meeting requests on Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5, do the following: ● Ask your system administrator to activate Rich Text Format (RTF) and Transport Neutral Encapsulation Format (TNEF) support for your account.
Using Messaging Composing and Sending Messages 1. In the message list, tap Menu > Switch Accounts and select the account. 2. Tap New. 3. Enter the e-mail address or text message address of one or more recipients, separating them with a semicolon. To access addresses and phone numbers from Contacts, tap To. 4. Enter your message. To quickly add common messages, tap Menu > My Text and tap a desired message. 5. To check the spelling, tap Menu > Spell Check. 6. Tap Send.
Tip By default, messages you send are not saved on your device to help conserve memory. If you want to keep copies of sent messages, in the messaging list, tap Menu > Tools > Options > Message tab, and select the Keep copies of sent items in Sent folder check box. If your account is an Outlook E-mail or IMAP4 account, you must also select the Sent Items folder for synchronization. To do this, tap Menu > Tools > Manage Folders and select the check box next to the folder.
Tip To delete a service, tap and hold the service, and tap Delete. While synchronizing your Outlook E-mail account, disable any directory services you have installed by clearing the Check name against this server check box. This helps avoid getting error messages when Messaging tries to verify names against the service that you are not connected to. 58 Chapter 7 Messaging Antenna House XSL Formatter (Evaluation) http://www.antennahouse.
