Idle Timeout - HandEra 330 User Manual

Idle Timeout

The Idle timeout setting defines how long your HandEra computer
waits before dropping the connection with your ISP or dial-in server
when you switch out of a TCP/IP application.
To set the Idle timeout:
Tap the Idle timeout pick list and select one of the following
1.
options:
Immediate – Drops the connection to your ISP immediately
when you switch to another application.
1 minute – Waits one minute for you to open another
application before it drops the connection.
2 minutes – Waits two minutes.
3 minutes – Waits three minutes.
Power Off – Keeps your PPP or SLIP connection until you
turn off your HandEra computer (or until it times out).
This option works best with the Modem accessory.
Tap OK.

Defining Primary and Secondary DNS
The Domain Naming System (DNS) is a mechanism in the Internet
for translating the names of host computers into IP addresses. When
you enter a DNS number (or IP address), you are identifying a
specific server that handles the translation services.
Each IP address has four sections, separated by periods. In the
Details dialog box, you enter each section separately. Each section of
an IP address is made up of a number from 0 to 255; numbers are the
only allowable characters in this field.
Ask your Internet Service Provider or System Administrator for the
correct Primary or Secondary DNS IP numbers.
