Chapter 4: Configuring The netpad
Entering Owner and Password Information
4.1.2 Entering Owner and Password Information
It is a good idea to enter "owner information", so that if the netpad is lost, it can be
returned when found:
1. Select the Owner icon from the Control Panel. Fill in all the fields on
the Identification tab. Click OK to save your information.
2. Select the Password icon from the Control Panel. Enter a password in
the first textbox and confirm it by typing it again in the second textbox.
The text will be displayed as an asterisk (*) for security.
3. Click Suspend if you want to display the password request screen
when switching the machine on after a suspend.
Click WarmBoot if you want to display the password request screen
only when the machine has been warm-booted.
4. Click OK to save your changes.
Note: The system password does not protect files stored on multimedia cards or
files copied to other machines. However, when connecting via ActiveSync
to a unit that is password protected, you will be asked to enter the pass-
word on the PC.
Important:
4.1.3 Setting The Time, Date And Time Zone
1. In the Control Panel, open the Date/Time icon. The Date/Time menu is
also accessible by double-clicking on the system time in the taskbar.
2. You will see a dialogue in which you can set the time, date, and time
zone. Always select the Time Zone first and apply it before setting the
time and date. Move the highlight in the date box by tapping on the
correct date. Use the arrow buttons to change month and year. In the
Current Time box, type in the time or use the up and down arrows to
set the time.
3. Click on the OK button and the time and date are saved.

Don't forget your password! If you have forgotten the system
password then you will have to hard reset the machine (see page
