IrOff - "Beam receive" is a feature that allows a Palm handheld to continuously scan its IR receiver for incoming transfers.
It is useful in some situations, but it draws a fair amount of power from the battery and reduces autonomy.
You can turn this feature off from the Prefs/General panel; but on Palm OS 4.x machines, the "Beam receive" preference is often unexpectedly reset to "On", even when the user has explicitly set it to "Off".
This utility allows you to keep the "Beam receive" preference always off, and thereby increase the autonomy of your handheld.
IrOff requires PalmOS 4.0 or higher (it has no purpose on previous versions).
Once the PRC file is hotsynced to your handheld, launch the "IrOff" application, and check the "Keep beam receive off" box.
The counters at the top of the screen display the number of times that IrOff checked for Beam receive preference, and the number of times it actually changed it from "On" to "Off".
IrOff is automatically reactivated after a soft reset.
IrOff has been reported to crash the Clie PEG-T675C at reset (under investigation).
IrOff is freeware. You are allowed to distribute it as long as you don't charge for it or alter it in any way.
IrOff is offered in the hope that it will be useful, but the author can not be held responsible for any damage that would occur from its use or the impossibility to use it.
