I just inserted a fresh battery, but it only lasted
2 days. Why?
When your PageWriter 2000X smart pager is set to two-way
transmission but is not receiving Full Service (i.e., you are out
of range), the pager continues to attempt to reestablish
communication with the network. This acts as a continuous
drain on the battery. Whenever you leave a two-way coverage
zone, set the radio mode to One-way or Off to preserve the
battery.
I haven’t used my pager in two months. When I
place the unit in the charger, I get a flashing red
light. Do I need a new battery?
Your battery is hyper-drained and it needs to be reconditioned.
1.
Place the battery in the docking station. The light will
blink red.
2.
Let the battery sit overnight.
3.
If the light is still flashing red in the morning, remove the
battery and put it back into the charger.
4.
Repeat procedure until the light goes green. If after three
attempts the battery doesn’t charge to green, the battery
cannot be reconditioned and must be replaced.
FLEX PC Partner
Why can’t I establish a connection between my
pager and my PC via the infrared interface?
Check the following before re-attempting to establish a
connection:
•
Make sure you have opened the FLEX PC Partner
application on your pager and selected
to get
the Connect Status screen.
•
Make sure your pager is placed properly in the docking
station and that the RS232 cable and transformer are
properly connected. For more information see “To
connect the docking station to your computer” on page 16.
•
Make sure the communications port on your PC is
correctly set. For more information, see “To configure
FLEX PC Partner” on page 53.
