Budget Local Pager (170-6001) Operation Faxback Doc. # 18027 TURNING THE PAGER ON Press the button and immediately release it. Dashes (-----------) appear on the display to indicate that the pager is on and ready to receive messages. TURNING THE PAGER OFF Press and hold the button to scroll through the pager settings. When the prompt "OFF?" appears in the display, release the button. Caution: All previously received messages are automatically erased when the pager is turned off. CHANGING PAGER ALERT SETTINGS Your pager has two alert settings - silent and audible. To change the alert setting, press and hold the button to scroll through the pager settings. Release the button when the desired pager setting appears on the display. In the audible mode, the pager emits a "beep" tone when it receives a page. The audible mode is indicated in the pager as a (speaker symbol). In the silent mode, the pager vibrates to notify you that it has received a page. The (speaker symbol) does not show on the display. PAGER ETIQUETTE Put your Numeric Display Pager in the silent mode when you are in meetings, church, or the theater to avoid disturbing others with the alert tone. The silent vibrate feature is also handy if you are at a concert or in any environment where it may be difficult to hear the audible tone. RECEIVING AND READING MESSAGES When the pager receives a page, it alerts for 8 seconds. Press and immediately release the button to stop the alert. Press and release the button again to display the message. Up to ten 20-character messages can be stored in the pager. To read other messages, continue pressing the button to scroll through the messages. NOTES: Messages containing more than 12 characters continue on a second screen. This is indicated by a continuation arrow (>) in the displays' lower right corner. The second screen appears automatically after 12 seconds or by pressing the button before the screen times out. If the message is left unread, the pager emits a reminder alert every 2 minutes and the number of unread messages appears on the display (i.e., 1PAGE). OTHER FUNCTIONS Messages are automatically cleared when the pager is turned off for a few seconds. "OVERFLOW" appears when the number of unread messages received is greater than the available memory. When this occurs, new pages received will "bump" the first page out of memory. After you have read all unread messages, the standby screen (--------------) reappears. When the same message is received more than once (letter/envelope symbol) appears in the upper right corner of the display to indicate that a duplicate message was received. When a page is received without numeric data, "TONE ONLY" appears on the display screen. (PH 10/25/95)
