The editable time window is not directly reflected in the forecast of the remaining battery life of
the batteries"
BatR
" of the EK280. Therefore the forecast battery life is not changed if the time
window is changed. Past time windows and data transfers are however used in the remaining
battery capacity "
BatRK
" and remaining service life forecast calculation.
b) Display GSM field strength
−
Check whether corresponding bars indicating the reception level for the internal modem ("i") appear
on the main EK280 display.
−
Move the cursor to the "
Serv.
" tab in the EK280's display, then to
