Start Using GC82 Manager
The radio mode you specify at GC82 Manager start-up appears selected on the Radio tab.
Text Messaging Tab
You can use this tab to enable reception of specific message classes from the SMS Cell Broadcast
service and to set the SMS received audio alarm to on or off. Select the radio buttons to activate
the options.
Example of SMS Cell Broadcast message types:
To enter multiple SMS Cell Broadcast message types separate each entry with a comma,
for example, 000, 034, 076.
Note:
SMS Cell Broadcast message types are network operator specific. Contact your network
operator for more details.
This screen also allows you to set a validity period for the SMS messages that you are sending.
If your message can not be delivered, for example, if the recipient hasn’t inserted their GC82,
the validity period tells your service centre how long to keep trying to send the message.
On
When the GC82 Manager is running in radio on mode
it is registered to the network and connections can
be made and SMS sent and received. The radio can
be enabled in several ways;
•
Select Radio On when the GC82 Manager starts.
•
Specify the required radio state in
Preferences
Radio Power.
See GC82 Manager Preferences on page 15 for
more details.
Off
Radio Off indicates that the GC82 will not register to the
mobile network. You may perform non-communication
related activities such as phone book maintenance, but
you must turn on the radio in order to make a connection
or to send/receive SMS.
Ask Me
Triggers a dialog to be displayed every time the PC
is turned on. The dialog asks you if the radio transmitter
should be turned on or off during the active PC session.
This is also called Aeroplane mode, because it prevents
the radio transmitter automatically turning on. This is
a useful feature in areas where radio transmitters are
not allowed; aircrafts, hospitals or blasting areas.
Your GC82 is set to Ask by default.
Turn Radio Off
At shutdown the radio is turned off.
Reset card
Turns the radio off and resets the card.
