The keyboard will disappear, allowing you to scroll through the message with the "Up/Down" and "Left/Right" Scroll buttons. Press the "Enter" button to insert the cursor into the selected position and return the virtual keyboard. • Once you are finished entering a message or other type of information press the "Exit/Backlight" button which takes you to the Edit Screen.

This port allows you to communicate with other infrared enabled handheld devices and laptop computers as well as to increase the functionality of your pager through simple software upgrades. Communication with your AccessLink II requires an application which runs on either a WinCE device, a personal digital assistant (PDA) or a personal computer. Visit Glenayre's website at www.glenayre.com for details about available applications. To communicate using the infrared port: 1 Enable the port as described in the “Miscellaneous Settings, Infrared” section on page 27. Set up an IR AccessCode as described in the “Miscellaneous Settings, IR AccessCode” section on page 27. This code prevents unauthorized communication with your device. The application running on the secondary device will need to supply this code to your pager to start communications. Align the IR port on your AccessLink II to the IR port on the other device. The devices must be aligned within 30 degrees and be within about 12 inches of each other to communicate properly. Press any button on the AccessLink II to activate the pager. The IR port looks for an IR signal when the display is active. If the display is asleep, the pager will not search for an IR signal. Look for IR communication status on the device with which the AccessLink II is communicating. In Windows 95, status can be viewed either from the specific communications application or from the IR Port status window within the Control Panel. You are now ready to exchange information between your second device and your AccessLink II pager. See the user instructions provided with your communication application for further details. 33 IR Port Diagram PC IRPort AccessLink II IRPort 34 Viewing Status Inform a t i o n To view detailed information about your pager, select the ABOUT folder from the folder list and press the “Enter” button.
