Turning on/off radio
When you first receive your handheld, the wireless radio will be
turned off, and the handheld cannot communicate over the wireless
network. You must turn on the radio before you can send and
receive messages.
In the
Home
screen, scroll to the
TURN WIRELESS ON
icon
and click.
You will notice that the
TURN WIRELESS ON
icon is an antenna,
but when you select this icon, the function name changes to
TURN
WIRELESS OFF
and the icon changes to an airplane. The airplane
icon is a reminder to turn off your handheld’s radio when on an
airplane, in a hospital, or any place that it may interfere with other
radio transmissions and frequencies. The icon will change back and
forth depending on whether the wireless radio is on or off.
There should be two messages in your
Messages
screen when you
first receive your handheld to introduce you to your handheld and
some of its basic features.
