Time, date, week start, and numbers formats The Time setting defines the format for the time of day. The time format that you select appears in all applications on your handheld. To select the time, date, week start, and numbers format: 1. Tap the Time pick list and select a format. 2. Tap the Date pick list and select a format. 3. Tap the Week starts pick list, and select whether you want the first day of the week to be Sunday or Monday. Note: This setting controls the Day, Week, and Month views in Date Book and all other aspects of your handheld that display a calendar. 4. Tap the Numbers pick list, and select formats for the decimal point and thousands separator. General preferences The General Preferences screen enables you to set the auto shutoff interval, alarm options, sounds for your handheld, and the Beam Receive feature. 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. Cradle settings You can choose to leave your handheld on when it is in the cradle during a HotSync operation, or when you are recharging the battery, so you can continue to view your data.
