General preferences
The General Preferences screen enables you to set the time, date, auto
shutoff interval, sounds, and beam receive option for your handheld.

Auto-off delay
Your handheld 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 handheld.
If you find that your handheld 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 pick list.
2. Tap the setting you want to use for the automatic shutoff feature:
30 seconds, 1 minute, 2 minutes, or 3 minutes.
