How Your PageWriter 2000X Pager Works
The PageWriter 2000X Two-Way Wireless Communications Cen-
ter’s lightweight, wearable design allows you to open the flip and
read your messages while the pager is still in the belt holster. Audio
and vibrate alerts notify you of incoming and waiting messages.
The keyboard provides text entry capabilities that allow you to
send full text messages. All this is combined with the ability to add
applications, upgrade current applications, and, with the infrared
interface in the Motorola Deluxe model, upload and download
information to and from your computer.
The Flip
The front flip on the PageWriter 2000X Two-Way Wireless Com-
munications Center houses and protects its LCD screen and anten-
nae. Opening the flip awakens the pager, while closing the flip puts
the screen into sleep mode. When in sleep mode, your PageWriter
2000X Two-Way Wireless Communications Center continues to
work for you. It receives and stores incoming messages for access
at your convenience. You can set audible, vibrating, or silent alerts
to notify you when messages are received.
The Home Screen
The Home screen’s menu wheel provides quick access to both pre-
loaded applications and those you add yourself.
TIP
The PageWriter 2000X Two-Way Wireless Communications
Center displays a blank screen to conserve energy during
periods of inactivity. Press any key to awaken the pager.
