Using Data Features*

Add the Motorola Data Connectivity Kit to your wireless package and transform your digital V. Series phone into a convenient and portable fax modem. Use the data cable to connect your CDMA phone to a compatible computer, and you can send faxes, access the Internet, send and check e-mail transmit and receive data wherever there is a wireless signal.
In this chapter we will explain how to: Place, end, and receive data calls. Read the data display. Set up Pre-arrangement.
Checking for Data Capability
To use the cable that came with your Data Connectivity Kit, rst make sure that your CDMA phone is data capable. To do so, just use your phone to perform the following simple test:
1. Select Feature 2. Scroll
Press then , ,. You will see: Phone Info. Press A to select. Press q or Z to scroll through the submenu. If you see: TrueSync Capable and Modem/ Fax Capable, your CDMA phone is data capable. If you do not see the above as you scroll, contact your Service Provider for more information.
Getting Started with the Data Connectivity Kit

Attaching the Data Cable

Before you install the fax/modem software on your computer, it is a good idea to attach the cable to the computer and phone.

1. Plug into Phone

Plug the smaller end of the data cable, with the release tab facing up, into the accessory connector on your phone.
2. Plug into The other end of the data cable is a 9-pin plug Computer Find the matching serial port on the back of your computer and insert the 9-pin plug, then tighten the screws by hand.
To indicate the cable is attached on both ends, your phone will beep once. Keep in mind: To save power, some laptops deactivate unused serial ports. If this happens, open an application that uses the serial port, like a fax or dial-up application, and your computer will automatically activate the port.

Installing the Software

To begin making wireless data calls, you will need to install the software from the CD-ROM that came with the Data Connectivity Kit. The software is designed to take you through the installation process step by step.

Placing a Data Call

Keep in mind: You will not be able to place a data or fax call through your phones keypad, using last ten dialed, or with Caller ID. All data and fax calls must be placed through your computer.

1. Connect 2. Place Call

Make sure the cable is connected properly. Open the application on your computer, like a fax or dial-up application, and place the call through the application on your computer. The phone will display the number your computer is calling (or the name if in the internal Phone Book). You will see: Connecting. If the call is not connected, your phone will return to the idle display.

During the Call

Reading the Display
Once the call is successfully connected, your phones display will show transmission information.

Connection speed

Type of call Rate for sending Rate for receiving
Fax 14.4 0:12:11 847-555-1212 Tx Rx
Time connected Connection number

Ending a Data Call

Always end a data call by closing the connection through the application on your computer. See the Users Guide that came with the software for more information. Keep in mind: If you set pre-arrangement before the call, your phone will remain in the pre-arranged state when the data call is ended. You will see either Fax Ready or Data Ready. See page 120 for more information. Important: The normal ways to end calls, like pressing or the Smart Button, will end a data call but may disrupt your computer. Likewise, disconnecting the cable or turning OFF your phone will also end a data call, but may affect the application on your computer. We recommend always closing the data connection through the software application.
Setting up Pre-arrangement
Some networks require you to change a setting on your phone before you can receive an incoming fax or data call. This is called pre-arrangement. There is no need to worry about placing data or fax calls the pre-arrangement setting only applies to receiving calls. Keep in mind: In pre-arrangement mode, you will not be able to receive incoming voice calls.

Accessory Options

An exciting line of accessories can enhance and personalize your digital wireless experience.

Lithium Ion Batteries

Motorolas Lithium Ion (LiIon) batteries are high energy-density batteries that offer increased capacity and are lighter in weight than similar sized Nickel Cadmium and Nickel Metal Hydride batteries.
Nickel Metal Hydride Batteries
Nickel Metal Hydride batteries (NiMH) are high-capacity batteries that offer up to 30% more talk-time than comparable Nickel Cadmium batteries. To help achieve maximum life and capacity for your NiMH battery, do not leave the battery in the charger for more than 24 hours, and use only Motorola-approved chargers.

Vehicle Power Adapter

Lets you plug into a reliable power source on the road. Uses your cars battery to power your phone and rapid charge the phones battery at the same time. The vehicle power adapter will not overcharge your battery and contains circuitry to protect against overvoltage and power surges in the vehicle. In some cars, the engine must be running in order for the vehicles accessory power to operate.*
* The use of wireless devices and their accessories (devices) may be prohibited or restricted in certain areas. Always obey the laws and regulations on the use of these devices.

Troubleshooting

Q. I pressed the power button, but nothing happened. Whats wrong with my phone? A. Check that you have installed a battery and that the battery is charged. See page 12 for information about installing your battery. Q. The display says Locked. How do I unlock my phone? A. Try entering the last three digits of your wireless number. If that does not work, try using the factory preset lock code: 123. If this fails, call your Service Provider (the company that sends you your monthly wireless bill) for assistance. For more information on your phones security features, see the Lock/Security chapter, page 84. Q. My battery did not last as long as I expected. What can I do to extend battery life? A. To get the most from your battery, make sure it is fully charged. To charge the battery to 100% of its capacity, leave it in the charger for an extra hour after the chargers light turns green. Exposing your battery to extreme temperaturesbelow -10C (14F) or above 45C (113F)can shorten battery life. Batteries are especially sensitive to high temperature extremes. It is a good idea to always take your phone with you when you leave your car. Q. I tried to place a call and received a fast busy signal. A. This sound means that your call was not processed. For example, the network may be temporarily busy. To redial the number, press the Smart Button or press before ending your call attempt, or press and try the call again later. See page 99 for more information on redialing.
Q. I tried to place a call but received an alternating high/low tone. What does this mean? A. This sound means your call did not connect to the network. Most likely, you dialed the number too soon after turning the phone ON. Wait until you see your phones idle display (in the main display either Ready, the name of your Service Provider, or your programmable banner) before placing a call. An alternating tone may also indicate that your phones signal is blocked. Make sure the antenna is fully extended and move clear of any obstructions, like bridges, parking garages, tall buildings, etc. Q. Whenever I turn the phone ON, the display says: Invalid Battery. What does this mean and why am I not able to charge the battery? A. Your wireless phone uses the Motorola Expert Performance (EP) Charging System. The EP system enables the built-in charger to communicate with attached batteries and tailor its charging cycle to optimize performance. If you see Invalid Battery when you power up the phone, the built-in charger is not able to communicate with the battery and cannot charge it. You could see this message for several reasons. The most likely one is that the battery is not a Motorola original and it does not have the appropriate EP technology. We recommend that you use only Motorola original batteries and accessories and that you store your batteries in their protective covers when not in use. Q. My phone started beeping, and the display says: 1 Call Unanswered. What happened? A. Someone tried to call you while you were in an area where the signal was weak. Press to clear your display, extend your phones antenna, and avoid obstructions like tunnels, parking garages and tall buildings whenever possible.
