12. Data communication
You can use your radio as a modem and transfer data to other
compatible devices when the radio is connected to a compatible PC
with a data cable (network service).
To send and receive e-mail and to connect to computers and access
the Internet, you also need the appropriate data communications
software installed on a compatible PC. You can use your radio with a
variety of commercially available data communications applications.
To use your radio as a modem, you must first install it as a modem to
your PC.
Q
Call functions during a packet data connection
Depending on network support and predefined radio settings, it may
be possible to make and receive phone calls, express calls, and
group calls during a packet data connection. The express calls
made to you, however, may be changed to one-way phone calls,
and you can receive them like phone calls.
During a call, packet data transfer is suspended. After the call ends,
the radio tries to resume the packet data connection.
Q
Install communication applications and
modem drivers
1. Ensure that a data communication application is correctly
installed on a compatible PC. For instructions, see the
documentation of the application.
2. Install the necessary drivers on your PC. For instructions, see the
user guide of your PC operating system.
You must define the DTE (data terminal equipment) rate when
you install the drivers. The default DTE rate of your radio is 9600
b/s. For example, if you use the Windows NT operating system,
select a standard 9600 b/s modem.
