Your VisorPhone module integrates the power of a state-of-the-art digital mobile phone with the simplicity of your Handspring handheld computer. Your VisorPhone includes all of the most popular features such as speed dial and call screening. Plus, it handles multiple calls, sends and receives text messages, and fully integrates with your handheld to take advantage of your existing Address Book. To use your VisorPhone, you must first establish an account with a mobile phone service provider. Your account information is located on your SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card. If a SIM card did not come with your VisorPhone, your service provider will provide one when you subscribe to their service. Your SIM card must be inserted into your VisorPhone before you can use it. Just follow the seven easy steps in this chapter to get up and running quickly. Getting Started Step 1: Set up your handheld computer 1. If you haven’t already set up your handheld, follow the steps that came with your handheld to set it up. 2. (Recommended) Synchronize your handheld with your computer.

Keep these things in mind as you use your new phone: ■ If you travel outside a coverage area, your phone remains on but you can’t make or receive calls. If this occurs, the LED blinks red slowly and the phone periodically tries to register to the network. When you return to a coverage area, the LED blinks green. ■ If you travel outside a coverage area, you can’t receive SMS text messages. However, the messages are stored by the network and you will receive them when you return to a coverage area. ■ Your account includes a voicemail feature so people can always leave you a message even when your phone is off. ■ Always use care when operating a mobile phone. If you plan to use your VisorPhone module while driving a car, we recommend using a headset for hands-free operation. See “Connecting a headset” on page 70 to learn how to connect a headset to your VisorPhone. 10 Getting Started Making Calls There are several ways to make calls with your VisorPhone.

When your phone is off or you travel outside a coverage area, your missed calls are forwarded to voicemail and they do not appear in the Call History list. Similarly, when your phone is off or you travel outside a coverage area, your service provider stores your text messages until you turn on your phone or return to a coverage area. Note: You may need to contact your service provider to add the text messaging feature to your rate plan. This feature is sometimes referred to as SMS, or Short Message Service.

These text messages, also called SMS (Short Message Service) messages, are similar to email messages that you send and receive from your computer, but are limited to a few sentences in length. The person receiving your message must also have a mobile phone and a service provider that supports text messages. Some service providers also allow you to use your mobile phone to send text messages to an email address and to receive text messages from a computer. Talk to your service provider for details about their SMS and SMS Email features.

Working With SMS Text Messages 43 Creating messages SMS Message Manager enables you to create short text messages and send them to a mobile phone number or an email address. If a message exceeds 160 characters, SMS Message Manager divides the text into multiple messages. As you create a message, the status bar indicates how many messages will be sent and the number of characters in each message. To save time while creating messages, you can insert predefined text from a template. Some templates ask you to enter information such as a meeting time or place. Using a template is similar to filling in the blanks on a form letter instead of writing a letter from scratch. Fortunately, in SMS Message Manager you can easily combine the template text with your own text to personalize your message. You can create a message at any time, but if you send a message when you are outside a coverage area, your VisorPhone places the message in the Pending category and sends it automatically when you return to a coverage area. While a message is in the Pending category, you cannot edit it, but you can delete it before it is sent. 44 Working With SMS Text Messages Creating an SMS text message 1.

Safety And General Information IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON SAFE AND EFFFICIENT 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 800 MHz to 1990 MHz and employs digital modulation techniques. When you use your radio, the system handling your call controls the power level at which your radio transmits. The output power level typically may vary over a range from .001 Watts to 2 Watts. 90 Warranty and Other Product Information Exposure To Radio Frequency Energy Your VisorPhone 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. 1-1992 ■ 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 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 following procedure: When placing or receiving a phone call hold the radio as you would a telephone. Speak directly into the microphone and position the antenna up over your shoulder. For body-worn operation, the antenna should be kept at least one inch from the body when transmitting. A carry holder with a belt clip is available from handspring.com for body-worn use. When using any data feature of the radio, 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 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 wireless phone. Warranty and Other Product Information 91 Pacemakers The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of six inches (6") 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 the recommendations of Wireless Technology Research. Persons with pacemakers should: ■ ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches from their pacemaker when the phone is turned ON. ■ not carry the phone in a breast pocket. ■ use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference. ■ turn the phone OFF immediately if you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place. Hearing Aids Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may want to consult your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives. Other Medical Devices If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information. Turn your phone OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy. Interference to Other Electronic Devices RF energy may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic operating and entertainment systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or representative to determine if these systems are adequately shielded from external RF energy. Also check with the manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to the vehicle. Turn your radio OFF before boarding any aircraft to prevent possible interference to aircraft systems. Regulations of the United states Federal Aviation Administration prohibit use when the aircraft is in the air and require you have permission from a crew member to use your radio while the aircraft is one the ground. 92 Warranty and Other Product Information Safety and General Use While Driving Check the laws and regulations on the use of telephones in the area where you drive. Always obey them. When using the phone while driving, please: ■ Give full attention to driving and to the road ■ Use hands-free operation, if available ■ Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions so require.
