8. Hold Option and press Return twice to return to the Connection Preferences screen.
Digitizer Preferences
The Digitizer Preferences screen opens the digitizer calibration screen. This is the same screen
that appears when you start your communicator for the first time. You can recalibrate your screen
after a hard reset, or if your digitizer drifts.
Formats Preferences
Use the Formats Preferences screen to set the country default and the display format of the
dates, times, and numbers on your communicator.
Country default
The country default sets date, time, week start day, and number conventions based on geographic
regions where you might use your communicator. For example, in the United Kingdom, time often
is expressed using a 24-hour clock. In the United States, time is expressed using a 12-hour clock
with an AM or PM suffix.
All your communicator applications use the Country default settings. See the next section in this
chapter for information on customizing these settings.
To set the country default:
1. Tap the country name pick list.
2. Tap the setting you want to use.
