Flash Memory Manager Control Panel Application
Use the Flash Memory Manager Control Panel application to
track and manage information unique to your handheld PC, as
well as to specify periodic backups of data.
To use Flash Memory Manager, follow these steps:
1. Tap
Start→Settings→Control Panel
and double-tap
Flash
Memory Manager.
The Flash Memory Manager Properties
dialog box appears.
2. Select one of the following tabs:
■
Database Backup
—Backs up the Contacts, Tasks, Calendar,
Appointments, and selected system data directly to your C-
Series so that this information can be easily retrieved in case
of a power failure or other disturbance to the system. Using
Database Backup, you can also:
❏
Specify the number of days between backups. (The default
value is 7 days.)
❏
Enable or disable the Auto Backup feature. Auto Backup
tells the system to perform a database backup each time it
transitions from battery power to AC power, provided that
at least 12 hours have elapsed since the last backup was
done. Using Auto Backup decreases the number of periodic
backups that must be performed while using battery power.
❏
View the date and time of the last backup, as well as the
amount of space occupied by the current backup.
■
Pocket Asset Management
—Provides information specific
to your handheld PC, such as model number, serial number,
and memory size. This information is useful when making a
technical support phone call and to give system administrators
the data needed to understand their inventory.
■
Administration
—Allows an administrator to control the
administration password and asset tag number so that
corporations can track the device as a capital asset.
NOTE:
When the administrator password is enabled, it can be
used to access the C-Series at any level of password security
except Administrator Lockout mode. For more on this, see the
next section, “Using Compaq Enhanced Security.”
