The Use reserve battery power allows your P/PC to use up
more of the battery’s reserve power. This power is normally
reserved for retaining your data after the P/PC has reached a
“very low” battery status. Enabling the Use reserve battery
power check box option reduces the data retention period
from 14 days to approximately 7 days.
Using HP security
Using HP securityUsing HP security Using HP security
The HP security control panel has three tabs:
•Password—Allows you to set a primary password and a
reminder password. You use the reminder password if you
forget your primary password.
•Activation—Allows you to set a password delay timer.
•Log—Allows you to log security events.
To start HP security
1. Tap the Start button, tap Settings, and then tap
HP security.
2.
 If you have already enabled password protection, you
need to enter your primary password to modify settings.
The HP security primary and reminder password are case-
sensitive. If you set a password (using lower and/or upper case
characters) with HP security, you need to type the password in
the exact same way to unlock the P/PC.
The Microsoft Password feature is not case-sensitive.
Using the Password tab
To set your primary password
1. Open HP security and tap the Password tab.
2. Enter a Primary Password in the Password text box,

Password tab
If you forget your primary password, you can still unlock your
P/PC with the reminder password. However, you cannot access
the HP security Properties tab to reset your primary
password.
If you forget your primary password, the ONLY way to reset it
is to follow these steps: 1) perform a full backup either to the
desktop PC or to a CF card using HP backup, 2) perform a full
reset on your P/PC, and then 3) restore the backup file to your
P/PC.
You can only backup to your desktop PC if you previously
saved your password when connecting with ActiveSync. If you
did not save your password, use HP backup to backup to a
CF card. For information on full backups and restores, see the
Backing up and restoring data section in chapter 9. For
information on performing a full reset, see the Full reset
section in chapter 11.
