Charging with the HP Desktop Cradle

and USB Cable

An alternative method of charging the Pocket PC is to charge the
unit by using a USB cable. However, because this charging
method drains the host battery (i.e., laptop), you must enable
USB charging on the Pocket PC before you can charge the unit.

To charge your Pocket PC using the HP Desktop Cradle and USB
Cable:

1. Turn on USB charging by tapping Start > Settings > System

tab > Power icon on the Pocket PC.

2. Select the USB Charging tab, and then check Use USB

Charging.

3. Tap OK once USB Charging has been enabled.

4. Connect one end of the USB cable to the bottom of the

Pocket PC.

5. Connect the USB cable to an available USB port on your

USB powered device, such as a laptop computer.

Note:

The Pocket PC charges slower when using an USB cable

than with an AC Adapter.
