You can set a combined Phone and a Private ID with the associated

Using Your Phone as a Modem
USING YOUR PHONE AS A MODEM
You can use your i500plus as a modem for data transfer from you
laptop, handheld device, or desktop computer. This is particularly
useful when there is no wired phone line (wall jack) available.
You simply attach a data cable to your phone and your computer.
From that point, your phone is your modem. This allows you to send
or receive time-critical information such as e-mail, a field service
report, or files. In addition, you can also send or receive faxes.
This type of wireless connection uses one of two types of data
connection: circuit-switched data and packet data.
• Circuit-switched data is typically used for sending and
receiving faxes and for transferring large files.
• Packet data is used for small file transfers such as e-mail.
To use these services, you must install the iDEN Wireless Data
Services software. For more information on setting up your computer
and your i500plus for Packet and Circuit Data calls, see the Wireless
Data Services User’s Guide and contact your carrier.
TTY Users
You can use your phone and computer in TTY mode. Your

SAFETY AND GENERAL
INFORMATION
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON SAFE AND
EFFICIENT OPERATION.
READ THIS INFORMATION BEFORE USING
YOUR INTEGRATED MULTI-SERVICE
PORTABLE RADIO.
For the Safe and Efficient Operation of Your Radio,
Observe these Guidelines:
Your radio product contains a transmitter and a receiver. When it is
ON, it receives and transmits radio frequency (RF) energy. The radio
operates in the frequency range of 806 MHz to 870 MHz and employs
digital modulation techniques. When you communicate with your
radio product, the system handling your call controls the power level
at which your radio product transmits. The output power level
typically may vary over a range from 0.00024 watts to 0.6 watts.
Exposure To Radio Frequency Energy
Your Motorola Radio Product is designed to comply with the
following national and international standards and guidelines
regarding exposure of human beings to radio frequency
electromagnetic energy:
• United States Federal Communications Commission, Code of
Federal Regulations; 47 CFR part 2 sub-part J
•
American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE. C95. 11992
•
National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements
(NCRP). Report 86
•
International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection
(ICNIRP) 1998
•
National Radiological Protection Board of the United Kingdom,
GS 11, 1988
•
Verband Deutscher Elektrotechniker (VDE) DIN-0848
•
Department of Health and Welfare Canada. Safety Code 6
To assure optimal radio product performance and make sure human
exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy is within the
guidelines set forth in the above standards, always adhere to the

48
Safety and General Information
When placing or receiving a phone call, or using the group and private
call functions with a Group/Private Speaker OFF (muted speaker icon
visible in the display), hold your radio product as you would a
telephone. Speak directly into the microphone and position the
antenna up and over your shoulder.
When using your radio product as a traditional
two-way radio while making group or private
calls with the Group/Private Speaker ON (no
speaker icon visible in the display), hold the
radio product in a vertical position with the
microphone one to two inches (2.5 to 5 cm)
away from the lips.
For body-worn operation, with or without an
earpiece or any other accessory, the antenna
should be kept at least one inch (2.5 cm) from the body when
transmitting. A carry holder with a belt clip is provided with the radio
product for body-worn use.
When using any data feature of the radio product, with or without an
accessory cable, position the antenna of the radio product at least one
inch (2.5 cm) away from the body.
DO NOT hold the antenna when the radio is “IN USE”. Holding the
antenna affects call quality and may cause the radio product to operate
at a higher power level than needed.
Interference to Medical and Personal Electronic
Devices
Most electronic equipment is shielded from RF energy. However,
certain equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from
your radio product.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a
minimum separation of 6 inches (15 cm) be maintained between a
handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential
interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are
consistent with the independent research by and recommendations of
Wireless Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers should:
• ALWAYS keep the radio product more than six inches from the
pacemaker when the radio product is turned ON.
•
Not carry the radio product in a breast pocket.
•
Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for
interference.
•
Turn the radio product OFF immediately if you have any reason
to suspect that interference is taking place.
49
i500plus User’s Guide
