are disabled.
Enable Radio
immediately when card
inserted
You should normally leave this checkbox turned off. When
enabled, the Windows driver turns the radio transmitter on
when the card is inserted and leaves it enabled even when
the card is not in use. You should check this option if your
Windows logon requires you to log on using a dial-up
connection, see Appendix B - Windows Log on using a
GSM/GPRS Dial-up Connection on page 76 for more
details. When you click OK to activate this option the
GC79 Manager displays the following dialog.
On
The radio mode you specify at GC79 Manager start-up
appears selected on the Radio tab.
When the GC79 Manager is running in radio on mode it is
registered to the GSM network and connections can be
made and SMS sent and received. The radio can be
enabled in several ways;
• Select Turn Radio On when the GC79 Manager starts.
• Specify the required radio state in
Preferences
Radio Power.
Off
Radio Off indicates that the GC79 will not register
to the mobile GSM network. You may perform non-
communication related activities such as phone book
maintenance, but you must turn on the radio in order
to make a connection or to send/receive SMS.
Ask Me Triggers a dialog to be displayed every time the PC is
turned on. The dialog asks you if the radio transmitter
should be turned on or off during the active PC session.
This is also called Aeroplane mode, because it prevents
the radio transmitter automatically turning on. This is a
useful feature in areas where radio transmitters are not
allowed; aircrafts, hospitals or blasting areas.
Your GC79 is set to Ask me by default.
Turn Radio Off At shutdown the radio is turned off.
Reset card
Turns the radio off and resets the card.
