    Glossary
    GlossaryGlossary Glossary 
        
    ac adapter  A connector that provides external power (not 
    battery power) to your HP Jornada. For information 
    about installing and using the ac adapter, see the 
    Setting up your HP Jornada section in chapter 2. 
    ActiveSync  Software from Microsoft that manages data 
    synchronization between your HP Jornada and desktop 
    PC. You can specify the type of data you want to 
    synchronize. 
    backup file  A duplicate copy of your HP Jornada files and 
    data that is stored on your desktop PC or on a PC Card. 
    This file does not include your HP Jornada settings and 
    information stored in ROM, such as factory-installed 
    software. Use your backup file to restore your 
    HP Jornada to its previous state if your device data is 
    damaged or destroyed or if you have performed a factory 
    default reset. 
    cache  A special high-speed storage mechanism that saves 
    temporary copies of Web pages and other file types as 
    you view them. Your computer can quickly display Web 
    pages you have recently visited, because Internet 
    Explorer can open them from cache instead of having to 
    load them again from the Web. Increasing the space 
    designated for your cache folder increases how quickly 
    recently visited files are displayed, but decreases the 
    amount of space available for other files on your 
    HP Jornada. You can choose to empty your cache upon 
    exiting Internet Explorer. This saves space on your 
    device. 
    cookies  A packet of messages a Web server passes to your 
    Web browser. When you enter a Web site that uses  
    						
    							178 HP Jornada 700 Series Handheld PC 
     
    cookies, you may be asked to fill out a form with 
    information such as your name and interests. This 
    information is passed to your Internet Explorer browser 
    as a cookie (in the form of a text file called cookie.txt). 
    The next time you visit that Web site, Internet Explorer 
    will pass the cookie back to the Web server, and the 
    server will use this information to present you, for 
    instance, with custom Web pages filled with information 
    of interest to you. For example, instead of being 
    presented with a generic welcome page, you might 
    receive a welcome page with your name on it. 
    dial-up connection  A connection between your 
    HP Jornada and another computer by modem. You can 
    have a dial-up connection with an ISP, a network, or 
    with a modem attached to a PC. 
    direct connection  A connection between your 
    HP Jornada and another computer by means of the 
    serial sync cable, USB cable or IR port. 
    docking cradle (optional on the HP Jornada 710) Place 
    your HP Jornada in the docking cradle for instant 
    connectivity with your PC partner. Once you have seated 
    your HP Jornada into the docking cradle you can sync 
    with your PC partner, transfer documents, send e-mail 
    and charge your main battery. 
    DNS (Domain Name System)  An Internet service that 
    translates domain names into IP addresses. For 
    example, the domain name www.jornada.com might 
    translate as 198.125.247.4.  
    factory default reset  A process that returns your HP 
    Jornada to its original state by removing all power, 
    thereby erasing all files and data you have saved. For 
    more information, see the Resetting section in chapter 
    8. (Also called “hard reset.”) 
    hard icons The icons located along the right side of your 
    touch screen are hard icons. Tap these icons to open the  
    						
    							Glossary | 179 
      
    HP settings, HP backup, HP dialup and Windows Media 
    Player applications. 
    hot keys  The keys in the top row of the Jornada keyboard, 
    just below the display screen. Hot keys provider one-
    touch access to the most frequently used programs on 
    your HP Jornada 
    Internet Service Provider (ISP) A company that 
    provides access to the Internet. 
    IP (Internet Protocol)  Specifies the format of packets, 
    also called datagrams, and the addressing scheme of the 
    Web. Much like a postal system, IP allows you to address 
    a package and drop it into the system, but your package 
    is not delivered instantly to your recipient. The packets 
    are simply delivered to a server until the recipient 
    downloads them by logging onto the ISP server. 
    IrDA (Infrared Data Association)  An international 
    standard for the hardware and software used in infrared 
    communication links. 
    Java  An object-oriented programming language used to 
    create applications that run on client or server 
    computers, and applets for use as part of a Web page. 
    LAN (Local area network)  A group of computers, 
    usually in close proximity (either in the same building or 
    in buildings in close proximity), that are linked together 
    to share files and exchange data. 
    MIME (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions)  A 
    standard that allows binary data (such as graphics or 
    documents) to be transmitted over the Internet without 
    first being translated into ASCII text. Many e-mail 
    programs use MIME to allow files to be sent or received 
    as attachments to e-mail messages. 
    NIC (Network interface card)  A card that is installed in 
    a computer so that it can be connected to a network.  
    						
    							180 HP Jornada 700 Series Handheld PC 
     
    Network interface cards can provide a dedicated, full-
    time connection to a network. 
    ODBC (Open DataBase Connectivity)  A standard 
    database access method. The goal of ODBC is to make it 
    possible to access any data from any application, 
    regardless of which database management system is 
    handling the data. 
    partnership  An established relationship between your 
    HP Jornada and your PC for the purpose of 
    synchronizing and transferring data. Your HP Jornada 
    can have partnerships with up to two desktop 
    computers. 
    PCT (Private Communication Technology)  A protocol 
    that maintains the security and integrity of Internet 
    communications by using encryption, authentication, 
    and message-authentication codes. The protocol is 
    application independent, and is used by Web browsers 
    and e-mail clients to send data via the Internet. PCT is 
    able to negotiate encryption keys as well as authenticate a 
    server before data is exchanged by the higher level application.  
    POP (Post Office Protocol)  The first protocol used to 
    retrieve e-mail from a mail server. Most e-mail 
    applications (sometimes called e-mail clients) use the 
    POP protocol, although some may use the newer IMAP 
    (Internet Message Access Protocol).  
    PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol)  The default method your 
    HP Jornada uses to communicate with the ISP network 
    server. 
    ROM (Read Only Memory)  Computer memory 
    containing data that normally can only be read, not 
    written to, containing the programming that allows your 
    computer to start up each time you turn it on. Unlike 
    random access memory (RAM)
    , the data in ROM is not 
    lost when power is turned off.  
    						
    							Glossary | 181 
      
    RAM (Random Access Memory)  Memory that holds 
    data and programs while a device is powered on, often 
    referred to as volatile memory because all information 
    is erased when power is off. 
    RAS (Remote Access Service) account   A network 
    account that enables your HP Jornada to access your 
    Windows NT network remotely. 
    remote connection   A connection between your 
    HP Jornada and a remote computer or server.  
    reset  A process that either causes your HP Jornada to 
    restart (soft reset) or causes all data stored in RAM to 
    be erased (factory default reset). For more 
    information, see the Resetting section in chapter 8. 
    restore  A process that returns your device to the state it 
    was in when last backed up. This involves copying your 
    backup data to your HP Jornada. 
    SLIP (Serial Line Internet Protocol)  An older and 
    simpler protocol than PPP. Connecting to the Internet 
    via SLIP is very similar to connecting via PPP. 
    soft reset  The process of restarting your HP Jornada and 
    reinitializing the MS Windows for H/PC 2000 operating 
    system. Performing a soft reset will erase any unsaved 
    data in open documents, but will preserve data that has 
    been saved. (Also called “warm boot.”) 
    stylus  A pen-like utensil designed for navigating on a 
    touch screen.  
    touch screen  A touch-sensitive screen that allows you to 
    open files, launch programs, and select text by touching 
    or tapping the screen with the stylus. 
    USB (Universal serial bus)  A standardized connection 
    method and cabling protocol for connecting peripherals 
    and other devices to standalone computers.
