DATA FEATURES
When connected to a personal computer (PC), the SX5 is capable of sending and receiving digi-
tal fax and data, sending and receiving email communications, and accessing the Internet. Data
speeds may vary depending upon your cellular network.
Connect SX5 to a Computer
Use a data cable to connect the data port on the SX5 to the appropriate data port on your PC - see
Figure: 20
Configure PC for Circuit Switched Data
Requirements
• Active CDMA account with your network service
provider including a Data/Fax facility
• Windows (version 95/98 or later)
• PC with a serial or USB Port.
Modem Setup
1. Power on your PC/laptop.
2. Access the Control Panel, then select the Modems option.
3. Install a new modem device for the SX5 with the following specifications:
Modem Type: Standard 19200 bps Modem
Maximum speed of serial port: 19,200
Data bits: 8
Parity: None
Stop bits: 1
Use Flow Control: Enable this option and select Hardware [RTS/CTS]
Extra settings: AT & D1
Automatic Baud Rate Fallback Control
The SX5 supports an automatic fallback to 19,200 bps when errors are detected in the data
stream. This is useful for applications such as PC digital fax because most PC fax applications
require a 19,200 bps baud rate on the serial port.
Enabling Fallback
Enable this feature when you have an application that uses a port speed of 19,200 bps. When
the SX5 has a port speed that does not match the port speed on the PC, errors will be detected.
When these errors are detected, the SX5 will adjust the port speed to 19,200 bps, thus matching
the PC application rate of 19,200 bps. It does not matter if the SX5's port speed is higher or
lower than 19,200 bps, the SX5 will still be adjust the rate to 19,200 bps.
NOTE: The SX5 does not support autobauding and will only adjust the port speed to 19,200 bps
under the above conditions. No other rate will be automatically set.
Press: # * 132 * 1 # ( <default setting> )
When to Disable Fallback
If you mainly use the SX5 for GPRS data, then disable fallback of the port rate. This will allow
some errors in the data stream without effecting a change in port speed on the SX5.
Press: # * 132 * 0 #
Baud Rate AT Commands
The SX5 will accept AT commands to setup the port speed. If you want to change the SX5 port
speed for a session or keep the change permanent, or if you just want to see the profile settings,
use the following AT commands from a terminal application (like HyperTerminal).
NOTE: Make sure DTE Fallback is OFF before making changes to the baud rate.

CONFORMANCE STATEMENTS
The SX5 800/1900 MHz models are in conformance with all applicable FCC requirements.
FCC Part 15/Part 22/Part 24 Class B Compliance
This Phonecell®SX5 model has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to Part 15, Part 22 and Part 24 of the FCC rules. Changes or modifica-
tions not expressly approved by Telular Corporation will void your authority to operate the equip-
ment per FCC part 15 paragraph 15.21.These limits are designed to provide reasonable protec-
tion against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and
can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruc-
tions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee
that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment
OFF and ON, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the fol-
lowing measures:
• Reorient or relocate the antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and the terminal.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the terminal is
connected.
• Consult your Authorized Telular Distributor or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
SAFETY INFORMATION
The Phonecell®SX5 functions as both a radio transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, the SX5
receives and sends out radio frequency (RF) energy. The SX5 CDMA unit operates in the fre-
quency ranges of 824 MHz to 894 MHz and / or 1850 MHz to 1910 MHz. When you use the
SX5, the cellular system handling your call controls the power level at which the unit transmits.
Exposure to RF (Radio Frequency) Energy
In 1991, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), and in 1992, the American
National Standards Institute (ANSI), updated the 1982 ANSI Standard for safety levels with
respect to human exposure to RF energy. After reviewing the available body of research, more
than 120 scientists, engineers and physicians from universities, government health agencies and
industry developed this updated Standard. In March, 1993, the U.S. Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) proposed the adoption of this updated Standard.
The design of the Telular Phonecell®SX5 complies with this updated Standard. Of course, if you
want to limit RF exposure even further than the updated ANSI Standard, you may choose to con-
trol the duration of your calls and operate your phone in the most power-efficient manner.
Safe Operation Requirement
The Phonecell®SX5 must be either wall mounted or desk mounted and should not be operated
when any person is within 203 mm (8 inches) of the antenna.
Temperature Environment
Operating Temperature: From -10°C to +50°C ; Up to 95% relative humidity (non-condensing).
Storage Temperature: From -40°C to +60°C; Up to 95% relative humidity (non-condensing).
Antenna Care and Replacement
Do not use the Phonecell®SX5 with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into con-
tact with the skin, a minor burn may result. Have the antenna replaced by a qualified technician
immediately. Use only a manufacturer-approved antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications,
or attachments could damage the Phonecell®SX5.
WARNING!
The Phonecell®SX5 is intended either to be wall mounted or mounted on
a flat surface to allow proper ventilation. Do not block the space beneath
the Phonecell®SX5 as this could cause the unit to overheat and fail.

Driving
Check the laws and regulations on the use of cellular products in the areas where you drive.
Some jurisdictions prohibit use of a cellular device while driving a vehicle. Even if your jurisdiction
does not have such a law, we strongly suggest that, for safety reasons, the driver use extreme
caution when operating the cellular device while the vehicle is in motion. Always obey the law.
Exposure to Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF energy. However, RF energy from cellular
devices may affect inadequately shielded electronic equipment. RF energy may affect improperly
installed or inadequately shielded electronic operating and entertainment systems in motor vehi-
cles. Check with the manufacturer or its representative to determine if these systems are ade-
quately shielded from external RF energy. You should also check with the manufacturer of any
equipment that has been added to your vehicle.
Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices (such as pacemakers, hearing aids,
etc.) to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy. Turn the Phonecell®
SX5 OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in the areas instruct you to do so.
Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF
energy.
Aircraft
Turn OFF the Phonecell®SX5 before boarding any aircraft.
• Use it on the ground only with crew permission.
• Do not use it in the air.
To prevent possible interference with aircraft systems, U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)
regulations require you to have permission from a crew member to use your cellular phone (or
any other cellular product) while the plane is on the ground. To prevent interference with aircraft
systems, FCC regulations prohibit using your cellular device while the plane is in the air.
Children
To prevent damage to the unit, do not allow children to play with the Phonecell®SX5 .
Blasting Areas
Construction crews often use remote control RF devices to set off explosives. Therefore, to avoid
interfering with blasting operations, turn the Phonecell®SX5 OFF when in a "blasting area" or in
areas posted: "Turn off two-way radio."
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Turn the Phonecell®SX5 OFF when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere. It is
rare, but the Phonecell®SX5 or its accessories could generate sparks. Sparks in such areas
could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked. They
include fueling areas such as gas stations; below deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or stor-
age facilities; areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal
powders; and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.
Do not transport or store flammable gas, liquid or explosives in the area of the Phonecell®SX5
or accessories.
Vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane) must comply with the National
Fire Protection Standard (FPA-58). For a copy of this standard, contact the National Fire Protection
Association, One Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269, Attn: Publications Sales Division.
