Add Tele-typewriter (TTY) functionality Add TTY functionality for people who are deaf or hard-of-hearing HP iPAQ products support Tele-typewriter (TTY) functionality, which allows people who are deaf or with hearing limitations to communicate using existing telephony infrastructure, including cell phones. To achieve this, separately purchased TTY devices must be connected to the telephones on both ends of a telephone call session, and the HP iPAQ must be configured for TTY use. The sending TTY device generates a distinct audio tone for every supported character, and these tones are decoded and converted back into text on the receiving TTY device. Due to the use of audio compression codecs in modern digital cell phones, these TTY audio tones might be unintentionally distorted while being transmitted through cell phones. Therefore, in order for TTY devices to continue to work in cellular networks, the cell phone must be set into a mode that optimizes the compression codec to handle TTY tones instead of the human voice. To use TTY with the HP iPAQ, an optional TTY audio adapter must be plugged into the HP iPAQ earbud jack (also called the earbud connector). This TTY audio adapter converts the pin-out of the earbud jack, which is designed for a wired earbud and stereo headphones, to the pin-out required by most TTY devices. To purchase the TTY audio adapter (part number: FA709BAC3), visit http://www.hp.com >
Handhelds & Calculators > Options and Accessories. NOTE: Because the HP iPAQ does not support internal Cellular Text Telephone Modem (CTM) conversion, the TTY device you use must contain CTM conversion, or you must use an external CTM adapter between the HP iPAQ and the TTY device. For information on connecting TTY devices or CTM adapters to the HP iPAQ, refer to the TTY device or CTM adapter manufacturers documentation. Select a frequency band automatically 29 HP is committed to developing products, services and information that are accessible to everyone, including people with disabilities or age-related limitations.

Enable TTY support NOTE: Before enabling TTY (Tele-typewriter) support on the HP iPAQ, connect a 2.5 mm connector into the earbud jack or the setting reverts back to disabled. For example, plug in the optional TTY audio adapter into the earbud jack first, as described below. Once you enable TTY support, you can remove the 2.5 mm connector and TTY remains enabled on the HP iPAQ until you disable it. 1. Connect the TTY device to the TTY audio adapter. 2.

Outlook e-mail Internet e-mail through an ISP Text messages You can also access e-mail from work using a VPN connection. E-mail in the Outlook e-mail account is sent and received through synchronization with a computer using any synchronizing software or through wireless synchronization directly with an Exchange Server. Internet e-mail is sent and received by connecting to a Post Office Protocol 3 (POP3) or Internet Message Access Protocol 4 (IMAP4) e-mail server. When connecting to a POP3 or IMAP4 server, you need to use a modem to connect to your ISP. You can use an Ethernet card to connect to the local area network your e-mail server is connected to. You can also use your HP iPAQ to connect by using a cellular line connection (for example, using MMS). Text messages are sent and received through your wireless service provider using a phone number as the message address. Folder types Each messaging account has its own set of folders with five default Messaging folders:
Inbox Outbox Deleted Items Drafts Sent Items The messages you receive and send through the account are stored in these folders. You can also create additional folders for each account. The way folders work vary by type:
If you use an Outlook e-mail account, e-mail messages in the Inbox folder in Outlook are synchronized automatically with your device. You can select additional folders for synchronization by assigning them designations. The folders you create and the messages you move are then mirrored on the e-mail server. If you use an MMS account or a text message account, messages are stored in the Inbox folder. If you use a POP3 account and move your e-mail messages to a folder you created, the link between the messages on the device and their copies on the e-mail server breaks. When you Understand messages 47 connect, the e-mail server detects that the messages are missing from the Inbox folder on the device and deletes them from the e-mail server. This prevents having duplicate copies of a message, but it also means that you no longer have access to messages. If you use an IMAP4 account, the folders you create and the e-mail messages you move are mirrored on the e-mail server. These messages are therefore available from any location or device. This synchronization of folders occurs whenever you connect to your e-mail server, create new folders, or rename/delete folders when connected. You can also set different download options for each folder. Synchronize E-mail When you synchronize Outlook e-mail on the computer with your device, e-mail messages are synchronized as follows:
Messages in the Inbox folder on your computer or Exchange Server are copied to the Inbox folder of the Outlook e-mail account on your device. Messages in the Outbox folder on your device are transferred to Exchange Server or Outlook and then sent from those programs. When you delete a message on your device, it is deleted from your computer or Exchange Server the next time you synchronize. The default sync settings synchronize messages from the past three days and the first 0.5 KB of each new message is downloaded. It does not download file attachments. NOTE: For more information on starting Outlook e-mail synchronization or changing synchronization settings, see ActiveSync Help on the computer or tap Contents. Text messages are not received via synchronization. Instead, they are sent to your device via your service provider. Set up messaging accounts Set up e-mail using exchange server 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.

A single text message cannot be longer than 160 alpha-numeric characters or cannot contain pictures or graphics. Messages longer than 160 alpha-numeric characters are sent as multiple text messages. A character count is visible when text messages (New/Reply/Forward) are composed. The count also shows how many text messages are generated when the message is sent. The Text Message Service Center phone number is provided by your mobile phone service provider. Text messaging should function correctly after activating your account.

Receive meeting requests If you receive your e-mail messages through ActiveSync, you can receive meeting requests. When connecting directly to an e-mail server, the server must be running Microsoft Exchange Server version 5.5 or later for you to receive meeting requests. 52 Chapter 13 Messaging If the server is running Microsoft Exchange Server 2000 or later, your meeting requests are automatically received in your Inbox. However, to receive meeting requests on Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5, do the following:
Ask your system administrator to activate Rich Text Format (RTF) and TNEF support for your account. With TNEF enabled, your messages that are included in other messages as attachments are not received, and you cannot know if a message has an attachment until you get the full copy. In addition, download time might be longer. Change e-mail download options if your account is not set up to receive attachments. After you are set up to receive meeting requests, do the following:
1. Open the meeting request. 2. Tap Accept, or Menu > Tentative, or Menu > Decline. If you want, you can also include a message with the response.

To send and receive e-mail for an Outlook e-mail account, begin synchronization through ActiveSync. Text messages are automatically received when your HP iPAQ is switched on. When your HP iPAQ is switched off (in flight mode), messages are held by your service provider until the next time your HP iPAQ is turned on. TIP: By default, messages you send are not saved on your device to help conserve memory. If you want to keep copies of sent messages in the messaging list, tap Menu > Options > Message, and select the Keep copies of sent items in Sent folder check box. If your account is an Outlook e-mail or IMAP4 account, you must also select the Sent Items folder for synchronization. To do this, tap Start >
Messaging > Outlook E-mail, and then tap Menu > Tools > Manage Folders and select the check box next to the Sent Items folder. Download messages from a server 1. 2. From any account, tap Menu > Go To and tap the account you want to use. Tap Menu > Send/Receive. The messages on your device and e-mail server are synchronized. New messages are downloaded to the device Inbox folder, messages in the device Outbox folder are sent, and messages that have been deleted from the server are removed from the device Inbox folder. TIP: To read the entire message, tap Menu > Download Message while in the message window. If you are in the message list, tap and hold the message, and then tap Menu > Download Message. The message will download the next time you send and receive e-mail. This will also download message attachments if you have selected those options while setting up your e-mail account. The size column in the message list displays the local size and server size of a message. These numbers might differ because the size of a message can vary between the server and the device. 54 Chapter 13 Messaging Install an online address book Many e-mail servers, including servers running Exchange Server, can verify names with an online address book called a directory service, using a protocol known as Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP). When you create an e-mail account, the directory service of your e-mail server is added to the Address, and you are given the option to enable it. After it is enabled, Messaging checks your contact list and then the directory service to verify names that you enter in the To, Cc, and Bcc fields. To enable a directory service or if you want to use additional services, follow these steps:
1. If you are adding a new account, ask your network administrator for the name of the directory service and the server. In the message list, tap Menu > Options > Address. In the In Contacts, get e-mail addresses from list, select which e-mail address book to check in contacts. Contacts will be checked first unless you select None. If your e-mail server is already listed, select the server's directory service check box to enable it and tap ok. If your e-mail service is not listed, tap Add In the Directory name and Server boxes, enter the LDAP directory and server names. Ask your network administrator if authentication is necessary for your server. If so, select the Authentication is necessary on this server check box, and enter your user name and password. To have messaging check this service, select the Check name against this server check box. 8. TIP: To delete a service, tap and hold the service, and then tap Delete. While synchronizing your Outlook e-mail account, disable any directory services you have installed by clearing the Check name against this server check box. This helps avoid getting error messages when Messaging tries to verify names against the service that you are not connected to. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Install an online address book 55
