Turning On and Off Your PageWriter 2000X Pager
The rechargeable battery in your PageWriter 2000X Two-Way

tions Center works much like your computer. Periodically turning

and can help optimize your pager’s performance. Turning off your
pager at night will also lengthen the time of your battery’s charge.

TIP
Incoming messages are stored by the paging service until
your pager is turned back on and ready to receive messages.
Turn your pager off at night when you do not want to receive
messages, and place the pager in the plugged-in charger so it
will be fully charged and ready for use in the morning. If you
prefer to leave your pager on, use the Quiet Time feature to
specify the time period that message alerts will not be
played.
