Misc(2) Tab

This screen is used to configure various miscellaneous features.
Field
Auto-retry This field is used to specify whether the AirBEAM client will automatically retry if
there is a failure during the synchronization process.
If this feature is enabled, the AirBEAM Client will display a popup dialog indicating
that a retry will be attempted. The popup dialog is displayed for the number of
seconds specified in the Retry delay field.
The valid values for this field are:
Retry Delay This field specifies the amount of time, in seconds, that the AirBEAM client will
delay before automatically retrying after a synchronization failure.
In-use Test This checkbox specifies whether the AirBEAM client will test to determine if a file
is in-use before downloading. If the In-use Test feature is enabled the AirBEAM
client will download a temporary copy of any files that are in-use. If any temporary
in-use files are downloaded the AirBEAM client will automatically reset the client
to complete the copy of the in-use files. If the In-use Test feature is disabled the
synchronization process will fail (-813) if any download files are in-use.
Wait Welcome This checkbox specifies whether the AirBEAM client will wait for the WELCOME
screens to be completed before automatically launching the synchronization
process after a reset.
Close Apps This checkbox specifies whether the AirBEAM client automatically attempts to
close non-system application prior to resetting the mobile unit. If enabled the
AirBEAM client will send a WM_CLOSE message to all non-system applications
before resetting the mobile unit. This feature offers applications the opportunity to
prepare (i.e. close open files) for the pending reset.
-1: the AirBEAM client will automatically retry indefinitely.
0: the AirBEAM client will not automatically retry.
>0: the AirBEAM client will automatically retry up to the number of times
specified.
