Connecting to the Network
The quality of Data Phone communication and data collection depends on the network radio recep-
tion. Large objects and other radiating devices can affect network reception. Use the Radio Signal
Strength Indicator on the display to monitor reception quality. The NetVision Data Phone can also
cause radio-frequency interference to other devices. Use the Data Phone only in areas designated by
the network administrator.
If the phone cannot connect to the network, the phone displays
No Network
. The phone cannot
make or receive calls, receive paged messages or perform data collection when disconnected from
the network.
The NetVision Data Phone ships with basic defaults for immediate use. The network administrator
preloads each Data Phone with configuration data to enable the advanced features and access other
system-related applications. The network administrator configures NetVision Data Phones in one of
two ways:
- As a shared phone, the system administrator preloads the Data Phone with a list of user profiles.
This allows you to pick up and use any Data Phone.
- As a personal phone, the system administrator preloads the Data Phone for one user.
The Setup user profile is reserved for the network administrator. Support and Symbol user profiles are
reserved for Symbol Technologies support personnel.
