Point Antenna to Receive Call
◗
If a satellite network is in range but signal
reception is not strong enough for you to receive a
call, you can only receive notification of a pend-
ing call.
◗
If the Antenna Pointing is set to
ON
, you will
hear the satellite assist signal consisting of differ-
ent pitches (depending on the signal strength)
when receiving notification of a pending call. The
signal will continue until time out, a sufficiently
strong satellite signal is acquired, or until you
press CLR to turn it off.
◗
If set to
OFF
, instead of the signal described
above, the call pending notification signal of three
short tones is repeated every 5 seconds until time
out or your phone finds a signal that is sufficiently
strong enough for your phone to respond to it
Move the phone and antenna to different positions
until the
Position Ant
message disappears.
If the phone receives a full service signal before
the time-out,
Connecting
displays, the phone
rings, and you can answer the call.
Point Antenna to Make Call
If you are receiving a satellite signal, but it is not
strong enough to make a call (a half circle is dis-
played),

message displays when
you initiate a call. The call will be pending until a
sufficiently strong signal is received.
If the
Antenna Pointing
is set to
ON
, and you
press
YES
again, the Antenna Pointing feature
will be activated to help you place the call. Reposi-
tion the phone until you hear a beep and
Calling
displays.
Point Antenna At End of Search
If a satellite network is found but the signal is not
sufficiently strong enough for the phone to regis-
ter with it. The phone will display the “Position
antenna” message and the empty circle service
indicator.
The
Antenna Pointing
feature
can help you
register with a satellite network signal.
