Screen blanker period — You can set the time period after which the display
will blank out if the device remains inactive. This feature saves the battery and
increases the operation time of the communicator. The time-out period can be
from 2 to 15 minutes. The screen blanker cannot be turned off.
Contrast control — The contrast view shows a test picture and a set of
commands that can be used to adjust the picture. The + command button
increases the contrast. The – command button decreases the contrast. When
the setting seems satisfactory, press OK.
Preferences — Preferences lets you change date and time formats and the unit
of measurement:
Date format: dd.mm.yy / mm.dd.yy / yy.mm.dd. — For example, 22.03.98 /
03.22.98 / 98.03.22.
Time format: 24 hour / AM/PM — For example, 09:35 / 9:35 AM.
Unit of measure — Choose either Centimetre or Inch as the basic unit of measure.
Security
Note: The predetermined default lock code 12345 is provided in the
sales package of the communicator. For security reasons, it is
imperative that you change the lock code. Change the code either in
the Security options menu of the phone (see ”Settings (Menu 4)” on
page 159), or via the communicator interface (see ”To change the
security settings” on page 128). Keep the new code secret and in a safe
place, separate from the communicator.
To lock the communicator automatically
1 Press Settings in the main view of the Security application.
2 Select Autolock period and press Change.
3 Enter your lock code at the prompt, and define the autolock period. When
the communicator remains inactive for the defined period, it will lock itself.
To lock the communicator manually
1 Press Lock system in the main view of the Security application.
2 If the Autolock period is in use, the device will lock immediately. If the Autolock
period is off, you must enter your lock code before the device is locked.
Note: Extensive use of
the backlight may drain
the battery.
