HP Jornada 680/680e Series Handheld PC Users Guide

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  A feature of Windows CE Services that man-
ages 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 full 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 Pocket Internet Ex-
plorer 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 Pocket 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
cookies, you may be asked to fill out a form with informa-
tion such as your name and interests. This information is
passed to your Pocket Internet Explorer browser as a
cookie (in the form of a text file called cookie.txt). The next
time you visit that Web site, your Pocket 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 sync cable or IR port.
docking cradle  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,
and send e-mail.
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.
expansion module  An expandable slot located on the
bottom of your HP Jornada that allows use of both PC
Card and CompactFlash Card accessories in a compact,
portable package. (For more information on the accordion
module, see the Using PC Cards and CompactFlash
Cards section in chapter 7.) 
						

							Glossary ï 177
full 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 scroll up
or down, open the HP settings application, show or hide
the task bar, and switch between open applications.
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.
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 pro-
grams 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. Network interface cards can provide a dedicated,
full-time connection to a network. 
						

							178 ï HP Jornada 680/680e User’s Guide
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, regard-
less 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 partner-
ships 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 (Inter-
net Message Access Protocol).
PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol)  The default method your
HP Jornada uses to communicate with the ISP network
server.
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 (full reset). For more information, see the
Resetting section in chapter 8. 
						

							Glossary ï 179
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 Windows CE operating system. Perform-
ing 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.
