• Back up and synchronize the data stored on your watch with
HotSync technology.
• Import and export data, so you can easily transfer data from
other desktop applications into any of your main applications
(see page 107).
• Install add-on applications onto your watch (see page 35).
• Print your Date Book, Address Book, To Do List, and Memo
Pad information.
NOTE: For information about synchronizing with Microsoft
Outlook and software upgrades, visit www.chapura.com.
IMPORTANT: Follow the steps below if you are already using a
®
Palm OS device with your computer and need to transfer your
existing data to your watch. If the Wrist PDA is the first Palm OS
device you are using with your computer, follow the steps in the
Getting Started booklet included with the watch. For more

Before importing your data, perform a HotSync operation using your
old Palm OS device to make sure that all of your data is backed up.
Open the Palm folder on your hard drive (usually
C:\ProgramFiles\Palm).
Create a new folder called "old device" in this directory.
Find the folder that contains the information for your old Palm OS
device. Its name should be similar to the device's HotSync user
name.
