Why does my device turn on automatically when I insert or remove a Compact Flash
card?
This is a requirement for Pocket PC devices and is quite normal.
Why can’t I connect to my PC using ActiveSync via a USB interface?
Windows® NT and Windows® 95 do not support the USB standard, and so an ActiveSync
connection using USB will not work.
Why is ActiveSync invoked when I plug my serial cable into my device?
A: Make sure that you disable the “synchronization when cradled” option in the ActiveSync Tools
menu.
Why can’t I connect to my PC via ActiveSync using IR?
Make sure there is less than 30cm between devices and that the angle is no more than 30°.
Can I transfer data via IR to Palm OS-based devices?
Peacemaker is a cross platform, infrared transfer utility for handheld devices. More information can
be found at http://www.conduits.com/ce/peacemaker
Some games I have downloaded from the internet do not work very well on my Pocket
PC. Why is this?
Compatibility with software that does not fully conform to Pocket PC standards cannot be
guaranteed. To ensure compatibility, use only fully conforming software.
6.3.2 Problems and Solutions
My Pocket PC does not turn on when disconnected from mains power.
Possible reason: the battery is too low.
Solution: connect to the mains power supply and recharge the battery.
The battery runs down too quickly.
Possible reason: you are using power-intensive functions, such as playing music or running a
CompactFlash card.
Solution: stop using these functions, or operate your Pocket PC from mains power. To keep the
battery fully charged, dock your Pocket PC in the cradle whenever it is not in use.
My Pocket PC automatically shuts down or suspends.
1) Possible reason: the battery is too low and your Pocket PC performs a safety shutdown.
Your Pocket PC will automatically go into sleep mode when 95% of its charge is used up.
Solution: recharge the battery or use mains power.
2) Possible reason: auto-suspend is activated after a period of inactivity (the default setting is 3
minutes).
Solution: restart your Pocket PC. You can change the auto-suspend setting by tapping
“Settings”/”Power” on the start menu.
