Starting Your Handheld And Calibrating The Screen; Using The Multi-Language Feature; Adjusting The Brightness Of Your Screen - Garmin iQue 3600 Operating Instructions Manual

Introduction: Starting Your Handheld and Calibrating the Screen

Starting Your Handheld and Calibrating the Screen

The first time you start the iQue handheld, setup instructions appear on the screen. These instructions include a calibration screen,
or digitizer. Calibration aligns the internal circuitry of the handheld with its touch-sensitive screen so your handheld can detect
stylus taps correctly. If you notice that the handheld does not respond properly when you tap the screen with the stylus, you may
need to calibrate the screen again.
To calibrate your screen:
1. Tap the Home (Applications Launcher) icon
2. In the pick list in the upper right corner of the screen, tap Digitizer.
3. Follow the on-screen instructions.

Using the Multi-Language Feature

If your handheld has the multi-language feature, you will be prompted to select a language once you have calibrated the digitizer.
WARNING: If the language you choose on your handheld does not match the language you chose when you installed
your Palm™ Desktop software, you could suffer data loss. If you are not sure, insert the Setup CD and re-install the Palm
Desktop software.
WARNING: In order to change to another language, you have to perform a hard reset, which will erase all data on your
handheld. If there is data on your handheld that you need to save, perform a HotSync
guages.
To select the language on your iQue:
1. Tap your language choice to highlight it, then tap OK. A confirmation screen reminds you that this setting must
match the language setting on your Palm Desktop software.
2. If you select Yes to change to a language other than English, the handheld will reset.

Adjusting the Brightness of Your Screen

To turn the backlight on or off:
1. Press the Power button to turn on the device.
2. Press and hold the Power button until the backlight turns on or off. Then release the button.
