Sleep Mode pick list
Network Provider pick list
Enabled The modem will attempt to enter a low-power mode if it is not required to
carry out any communications with a Network. The modem may respond
sluggishly to the first communication request when it is required again.
Disabled The modem is not allowed to enter sleep mode.
A only The modem will search for a CDPD system on the "A" side only. For users
who do not roam, this selection can sometimes speed the registration
process, as the modem does not have to look on the "B" side as well
before it can register.
B only Same as "A only" except on the "B" side.
Prefer A The modem will search for a CDPD system on the "A" side first and
attempt registration on any system it finds. However, if the modem cannot
register on the "A" side, it will then attempt to find service on the "B" side.
For users who roam, this setting would be appropriate if the home system
was on the "A" side.
Prefer B The modem will search for a CDPD system on the "B" side first and
attempt registration on any system it finds. However, if the modem cannot
register on the "B" side, it will then attempt to find service on the "A" side.
For users who roam, this setting would be appropriate if the home system
was on the "B" side.
