About the Smart Accessories application
You can change how your BlackBerry smartphone functions when you connect it to a dock, charger or charging
pod by creating a dock profile to identify the dock or charger in the Smart Accessories application. For example,
you might be able to identify a dock as a bedside dock, so that when you connect your smartphone, your
smartphone's sound profile turns off and your smartphone's alarm clock turns on.
Set up a new dock
The first time you connect your BlackBerry smartphone to a dock, charger or charging pod, you're prompted to set
the behaviour of your smartphone for each time it connects. If you choose not to set the behaviour of your
smartphone, you'll be prompted again the next time you connect your smartphone to the dock, charger or charging
pod. If you remove your smartphone from the dock, charger or charging pod while the configuration screen is
displayed on your smartphone, the configuration screen will remain open.
1. In the Smart dock dialog box, click Configure.
2. In the Dock Name field, type a name for your dock profile.
