Get to know your handheld — Using password protection
40
Using password protection
By setting a password for your handheld, you ensure greater
security against others using the handheld.
You can specify the length of time that the handheld is idle before
the password security screen appears. Once the handheld is left idle
for that amount of time, you will need to type your password to use
the handheld.
You can also manually activate the password security screen by
selecting the Lock function from the Home screen. You should lock
your handheld if you leave it unattended.
If you do not want the password security screen to appear, you
must disable your password in the Security screen.
Password security screen
Note
If you have entered information in the Owner screen of the
Options function, it will appear on the password security
screen. We recommend that you include your own (or your
company’s) contact information in case the handheld is lost.
If an incorrect password is entered 10 times, all information
could be erased from the handheld for security reasons.
The handheld’s radio is turned off and the radio icon is
removed from the Home screen. You will need to reload the
applications before you can use your handheld again. You
should regularly backup any information from your
handheld that might not have originated on your PC. See
Chapter 3 or the Backup and Restore online help for more
information.
