USING MOBILEPRO’S POWER SOURCES The NEC MobilePro 780 can be powered using the AC adapter or the system’s main battery, making it a truly portable system. The MobilePro also contains a built-in, backup battery that recharges whenever the unit is con- nected to an AC power source. Read the following sec- tions for information about using the NEC MobilePro’s power sources. Determining Battery Status You can determine battery status by using the power icon on the lower right-hand side of the taskbar or through the power icon in the control panel. The icon on the taskbar displays as an electrical plug when the battery is fully charged (battery charging LED lights green) or as a battery while charging (battery charging LED lights amber).

To display battery status, use one of the following meth- ods. !"Double tap the battery/plug icon on the taskbar, if pre- sent. !"Go to Start, Settings, Control Panel, and double tap the power icon. Recharging the Main Battery Pack The main battery pack contains rechargeable Lithium-Ion cells. Recharge a battery pack when you see the following message displayed on your screen. Main Batteries Very Low To recharge a battery pack installed in the battery bay, connect the AC adapter. See “Connecting the AC Adapter” in Chapter 1. The battery charging LED indicates the charging status of the main battery pack when the NEC MobilePro is con- nected to an AC power source. The LED status displays as follows: !"Lights amber while charging. !"Lights green when fully charged. It takes approximately 4.5 hours to recharge a fully de- pleted battery pack regardless of the system’s power state. However, if the main battery has been depleted for a pro- longed period, you must also allow time for the backup battery to fully recharge (see the section, Recharging the Backup Battery").

Note: Through normal use, the capacity of a battery pack gradually declines. Should you notice that the battery does not stay charged as long as ex- pected, it is probably necessary to replace the bat- tery with a new one. Please refer to the section "Battery Replacement" in this chapter. Depending upon use, a battery pack should recharge from full depletion approximately 300 times during the life of the battery. Recharging the Backup Battery The backup battery charges while the main battery is charging. It usually takes approximately 4.5 hours to re- charge both the main and backup batteries together. A full 10 hours charging time is required under either of these circumstances: !"this is the first time you have used your MobilePro !"the main battery has been in a depleted state for a pro- longed period. In these cases, allow ten hours for both the main and backup batteries to charge, even if the LED indicator on the front of the MobilePro lights green before the full 10 hours are passed. To protect your data, do not use the system until the backup battery is charged. To recharge the main and backup batteries, connect the AC adapter. See the section, “Connecting the AC Adapter” in Chapter 1.

MobilePro Power Management When your MobilePro is connected to an AC power source and the main battery is removed from the system, be sure to replace the main battery before disconnecting the AC adapter to prevent possible data loss. ! CAUTION The MobilePro’s internal data backup battery pro- vides power to maintain the memory contents for a limited period of time when the main battery is re- moved and the unit is not connected to an AC power source. The backup battery does not provide suffi- cient power to operate the system. Do not remove the main battery from the unit for an extended period of time unless the unit is connected to an AC power source. The backup battery is not user replaceable. Battery Replacement Note the following when replacing batteries: !"If the main battery becomes weak, the MobilePro auto- matically turns off. Recharge or replace the main battery immediately if the power goes off. !"MobilePro has a built-in backup battery that maintains your data for several hours whenever the main battery is depleted or removed. The backup battery is re- charged whenever the unit is connected to an AC power source. !"If you fail to replace a depleted main battery for an ex- tended period of time and the back-up battery is weak, the contents of the MobilePro memory and all user data may be lost.

Removing and Inserting the Battery Pack Should you notice the life of a charged battery pack is short, replace it with a new one. Follow these instructions to replace a battery pack. 1. Save your data, turn off unit power, and close the dis- play panel. Disconnect any cables attached to the unit, such as the AC adapter cable. Note: If you receive messages indicating that both the main battery and the backup battery are very low, immediately connect the AC adapter to charge both batteries. 2. Have a new Lithium-Ion battery pack available.

USING THE IR PORT With the NEC MobilePro, you can send and receive data to and from another similarly equipped device using the infrared (IrDA) communication port. In addition, you can use the IR port to synchronize data with your host PC, in place of using the PC Connect serial cable. Before using the NEC MobilePro for IrDA communica- tion, first configure/enable the IR port on your host sys- tem, then install Microsoft ActiveSync on your host system. Note: If you configure/enable the IrDA port on your host system after installing Microsoft Active- Sync, you must re-install Microsoft ActiveSync be- fore establishing IrDA communication between systems. Follow these steps to use the IR port to communicate with another MobilePro or your host PC. 1. Remove the PC Connect (serial) cable from the Mo- bilePro before attempting IrDA communication. 2. Open the display panels on the two units that you want to use for communication. 3. Position the units so that communication ports face each other. Position the units from 2 to 20 inches apart. 4. Be sure that nothing obstructs the path between the communication ports on both units, and that the ports are aligned properly. 5. Send your data by using the “Send To” selection in the Windows CE Pocket Explorer File menu.

Highlight the file you wish to transfer and choose “Infra- red Recipient” from the Send To selections. Your file is transferred to the other unit. The receiving unit uses the File/Receive command to receive the infrared transmis- sion. Note: If the units are too far apart or if some- thing blocks the path between the two ports, data may not be sent or received correctly. UPGRADING ROM You can upgrade NEC MobilePro ROM by replacing the currently installed ROM module with an upgraded ROM module (when available). Note: Be sure to synchronize your MobilePro data with your host PC and perform a backup of your MobilePro data before upgrading your ROM module. You may need to copy some files back to your Mo- bilePro following this upgrade procedure. Note: Before handling any internal compo- nents, discharge static electricity from yourself and your clothing by touching a nearby metal surface. Follow these steps to upgrade your MobilePro ROM mod- ule. 1. Save your data to a host PC, power off the MobilePro, and close the display panel.

2. Disconnect any peripheral devices attached to the Mo- bilePro, such as the AC adapter. 3. Remove the battery pack. See the section in Chapter 2, “Removing and Inserting the Battery Pack,” for de- tails. 4. Turn over the MobilePro and locate the screw that secures the ROM bay cover. 5.

WINDOWS CE OPERATING SYSTEM Windows CE is the smallest member of the Windows op- erating system family using the Windows 95 interface. What exactly does smallest mean? It means mobility and portability provided through a reduced code base. This code base is completely 32-bit; it is multithreaded, multi- tasking and runs on different processors such as the NEC VR4121 MIPS processor. Your MobilePro does not have a hard disk drive. The op- erating system and preloaded applications are deployed on a Read-Only Memory (ROM) module; files that you work on are stored in Random Access Memory (RAM) on a RAM module. The power of Windows CE is enhanced through its design to easily link with your desktop computer to synchronize your data. For more information about setting up your MobilePro for synchronization, see the section in Chapter 1, “Connecting to Your PC.” Using Windows CE Windows CE is similar to Windows 95. However, some actions are executed differently, as indicated in the follow- ing sections. Tapping Your NEC MobilePro comes with a stylus, a pen-like de- vice that allows you to touch, tap, or double tap objects on the MobilePro touch screen. The touch, tap, and double tap act just like a point, click, and double click of a mouse. To simulate the click of the right mouse button, hold down the Alt key while you tap or drag the object with the stylus. Finally, never use a metal object in place of the stylus. Metal objects may scratch the surface of the touch screen.

Selecting Objects You can select objects in Windows CE by tapping the ob- ject(s) with the stylus. To select multiple contiguous items, hold down the Shift key while tapping the first and last items. To select multiple non-contiguous items, hold down the Ctrl key while tapping each item. To move the blinking cursor while editing text in a pro- gram, simply tap the screen at the desired (new) location. Dragging and Dropping Dragging and dropping works just like Windows 95. To drag an object, tap the object with the stylus and hold the stylus against the screen. Continue to hold as you slide the object across the screen. Lift the stylus from the screen when the object is in the desired location. To copy an object, simply hold down the Ctrl key as you drag the object, as indicated in the previous section. Windows CE Desktop Windows CE gives you the newest features offered by Mi- crosoft for your NEC MobilePro and is very similar to Windows 95. Windows CE includes a desktop with built-in pocket ap- plications, a taskbar for quick navigation, online network- ing functions, and more. Your Windows CE desktop provides the following icons.

!"My Handheld PC — Opens Windows CE Explorer to display all the data on your MobilePro, whether stored in RAM or on a storage card in the PC card or Com- pact Flash card slots. My Handheld PC is much like the My Computer icon on the Windows 95 desktop. !"My Documents — Provides shortcuts to documents most recently worked on, as well as, access to Pocket PowerPoint and Pocket Access. !"Recycle Bin — Gives you a trash container in which to put unwanted files. !"Internet Explorer — Provides web access once you are connected to the Internet via the MobilePro’s built-in modem and an internet service provider. !"Inbox — Allows you to send and receive email mes- sages on your NEC MobilePro.

In addition, your NEC MobilePro includes additional utili- ties accessible through the Start, Programs menu. !"ASL Connect Client for Windows CE — Provides automatic backup, restore, and synchronization fea- tures. !"Citrix ICA Client — Provides a setup wizard to con- figure the Citrix ICA thin client for connectivity to the MetaFrame server component.

Pocket Applications While Windows CE applications do not have all the fea- tures you may expect to see in applications on other Win- dows systems, these applications provide many powerful features adapted for the mobile environment. Your MobilePro, with its larger keyboard, highly visible display, and longer battery life, allows you to obtain full advantage of the CE-based applications. Write complete, well-formatted reports, take detailed notes, and work on spreadsheet data as you travel. Microsoft provides a complete suite of applications ready for you to use. These applications are available as a desk- top icon or accessible through Start, Programs in the Accessories, Communication, or Games folders. !"Calendar — Allows you to track your appointments and create meeting requests. !"Contacts — Lets you store important information about your friends and colleagues. !"Inbox — Allows you to send and receive email. !"Tasks — Gives you a place to create a portable "to do" list. !"Microsoft Pocket Access — Provides a database pro- gram for the mobile professional allowing you to up- date and query data while you are on the road. !"Microsoft Pocket Excel — Provides spreadsheet and data base functions for budgeting and other data tasks. !"Microsoft InkWriter® — Lets you create handwritten or typed notes and drawings. !"Microsoft Pocket PowerPoint — Provides an easy, portable solution for desktop presentations.
