Auto-Off Delay
Your Palm III organizer has an automatic shutoff feature that turns off
the power and backlight after a period of inactivity. This feature helps
conserve battery power in case you forget to turn off your Palm III
organizer.
If you find that your Palm III organizer shuts itself off before you
finish reviewing the information on the screen, you should increase
the time setting of the automatic shutoff feature.
To set the Auto-off delay:
1. Tap the Auto-off after setting in the General Preferences screen to
open the pick list.
2. Tap the setting you want to use for the automatic shutoff feature.
You can choose a delay of 1 minute, 2 minutes or 3 minutes.
System, Alarm and Game Sounds
Your Palm III organizer uses a variety of sounds. The System, Alarm
and Game Sound settings enable you to turn the sounds on or off, and
to adjust the volume level.
To set the system and alarm sounds:
1. Tap the System Sound pick list in the General Preferences screen
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 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.
