The phone function of your SP500 EDA boasts of standard cell phone features—such as
mailbox and text messages—as well as several handy call features including Speed Dial,
Caller ID, Conference Call, Call Forwarding, Call Waiting, Voice Mail and Text messages,
Fixed Dialing, Call Barring, Call History, speakerphone, note taking, voice mail, and
emergency number setting.
The Phone program is integrated with both Microsoft Contacts and Messaging. This
means you can make a call and send e-mail/text messages from any of these three
programs. This fully integrated functionality of Phone also makes sharing contact
information between programs an easier task.
This chapter shows you how to install a SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card on your
device. It also describes basic phone operations and features, as well as ways of
customizing the phone function based on your preferences.

Installing the SIM card
If you wish to use the phone function, you need to first install a valid SIM card.
A SIM card is a small printed circuit board that must be installed when signing on as a
subscriber in a GSM-based mobile phone like your SP500. It contains subscriber details,
security information and memory for a personal directory of numbers.
To install the SIM card:
If the device is switched on:
(a)
Press the Power/End key
(b)
Wait for five seconds to allow the device to completely enter sleep mode.
to turn off the device.
Remove the battery pack. See “To uninstall the battery pack” on page 8 for
instructions.
With the rear panel facing you, slide the SIM card holder to the right.
Lift the holder halfway from the recess area.
33
3 Using Phone
Phone setup
Insert the SIM card into the SIM card holder.
Note the proper position of the SIM card—the card connector (i.e., gold area) should
be facing downward with the beveled corner fitting the lower-left corner of the
recess area.
Press the SIM card holder down.
Slide the SIM card holder to the left to lock it into place.
Reinstall the battery pack. See “To install the battery pack” on page 8 for
instructions.
The default settings for your device are programmed on the assumption that you’ll
be using the phone function once you’ve properly installed a SIM card (and in some
cases, entered a PIN), you can then proceed to establishing a connection to your
mobile service provider’s network.
NOTE: If you’re not going to install a SIM card on your device, keep the Phone
program closed or turn the program off using Wireless Manager to minimize power
consumption.
34
3 Using Phone
Phone setup
Entering your PIN
After installing the SIM card you’ll be able to activate your mobile service connection. In
most cases, SIM cards are preset with a PIN (Personal Identity Number), provided by
your mobile service provider.
To enter your PIN:
Tap
On the Dialer screen, enter the preset PIN from your mobile phone service provider.
> Phone
Tap Enter.
If you consecutively enter a wrong PIN for three times, the SIM card is blocked. If
that happens, you can unblock it with the PIN Unblocking Key (PUK code) also
provided by your mobile phone service provider.

To activate the HAC profile:
SP500 is compliant with the FCC HAC (Hearing Aid Compatibility) requirements. When
some wireless devices are used near hearing devices (such as hearing aids and
cochlear implants), a buzzing, humming, or whining noise may be detected. Some
hearing devices may be more immune than others to this interference, and wireless
devices also vary in the amount of interferences they generate. SP500 has a predefined
HAC profile that optimizes the audio performance for some hearing aids.
NOTE: Some hearing aids may be more immune than others are to interference.
Consult your hearing health-care professional to determine the rating of your hearing aid
and whether the hearing aid will work with this device.

Some countries prohibit the mounting of any electronic device in any location
on the vehicle dashboard. Be sure to check your local laws acceptable
mounting areas before installing the auto mounting kit.
Some newer vehicle models may have a heat reflective shield embedded in
the windshield. This may in some cases obstruct the GPS signal reception.
In some cases, poor GPS signal are caused by:
ï
Indoors and GPS cannot receive satellite positioning signal
ï
Pylon or mobile phone base station
ï
Bad weather, thunder, lightning, cloudy sky, fog, or rain
ï
Driving at high speed
The heating and cooling cycle of a vehicle’s interior will in some cases
loosen the adhesion of the suction cup. Check the vacuum seal of the
vehicle mount kit for adequate adhesion each time you use the unit, and
reinstall if necessary.
If the vehicle mount kit has problems staying on, clean the plastic suction
cup with alcohol, then reinstall.
To set up the device on your vehicle:
Install the vehicle mount on the surface of your vehicle that is reasonably flat and
free of dirt and oil
Clean the mounting surface with a glass cleaner and a clean cotton cloth.
Install the vehicle mount on the windshield or other flat car surface.
(a)
Fix the suction cup mount to the selected area with the suction lever facing
up.
(b)
Flip the lever down to create a vacuum between the suction cup and the
mounting surface.
Make sure that the suction bond is strong enough before proceeding to the
next step.

Setting up SP500 on your vehicle
Slide the device into the cradle.
IMPORTANT: Before you start to use your device for GPS navigation, download
the LTO (Long Term Orbits) first to update the Ephemeris data (current satellite
position and timing information) onto your device. This data is needed to determine
the GPS position of your current location.
The internal GPS receiver of your device is located as shown, for best GPS
reception, make sure to mount your device in the correct position as shown in the
illustration.
Connect the charger cable to the device and connect the other end of the charger
cable to the cigarette lighter socket.
The LED indicator on the right side of the touch screen lights up orange during
charging.
Downloading the LTO satellite data
Global Locate LTO satellite data provides guidance information about your current
location and the distance and duration of travel. After the final location and time are
calculated, the coordinates in the GPS are expressed in specific coordinate system,
degrees and decimal degrees format, using the WGS 84 coordinate system.
The SP500 includes an Express GPS Connection application that makes use of the LTO
satellite data, which can be downloaded using a GPRS/EDGE wireless data service
connection or obtained from a server on the Internet through WLAN network. As an
alternative to GPRS/EDGE or WLAN download, you can retrieve the LTO satellite data
from a server on the Internet and transfer it to your SP500 when you connect it to your
PC via ActiveSync or Bluetooth. After downloading the satellite orbit data, Express GPS
Connection stores the data into the device’s GPS chipset.
75
4 Using GPS Navigation
Setting up SP500 on your vehicle
For your first location fix, it is best to be outdoors under an open sky, with no tall buildings
or other obstructions close by. It should take one to two minutes to compute the first
position fix. After obtaining the first fix, Express GPS Connect operates at the optimum
GPS performance level. If the data has expired, you should check your Express GPS
Connect settings.
You have two options to download LTO—from the Today screen, using the Express GPS
Connect icon
; or the Express GPS Connect option under the Settings >
Connections preferences.
NOTE: Be sure the current date is displayed on the SP500. If the date and time are
not current, tap the Clock icon
on the Today screen.
