Downstream, Europe
Downstream (indicated by down pointing arrow) means, that this is the signal that is sent from
the phone mast to a cell phone. The signal that a cell phone sends to the phone mast is called
upstream, and is shown as an arrow pointing upwards.
EU means, that this is a frequency band used in Europe (in the USA and some other countries,
the band frequencies are slightly different).
In the described software version, pre-programmed bands are:
1 GSM 900 downstream EU
2 GSM 1800 downstream EU
3 UMTS 2100 downstream EU
4 DECT 1880 EU
5 GSM 900 upstream EU
6 GSM 1800 upstream EU
7 UMTS 2100 upstream EU
8 WLAN
You can use button 6 or 3 to select the next or previous frequency band.
You can also define your own list of bands on the micro-SD card (explained in one of the next
sections).
It takes approx. 3 seconds to scan the GSM900 downstream band (with standard settings).
