Icon Meaning

A high-speed (1X) packet data call is in progress.

A fatal error has occurred and the PC3320 card is inoperable. (This may be resolved by closing Mobile Connection Manager and restarting your PC.)

Call Status Area

The Call Status Area displays messages related to the status or progress of a connection.

Where a duration timer is shown, timing begins when the call is initiated—not from the time the call is fully connected. This is a measure of the time the PC3320 has been using the radio channel (a wireless network resource).

“PowerSave - Click this display to exit” indicates that the PC3320 card could not find a CDMA system within a 15 minute interval. To conserve power, the PC3320 card reduces channel scanning to once every three minutes. To force the PC3320 card out of PowerSave mode, click in the Call Status Area. The PC3320 card performs a channel scan and, if no network is detected, returns to PowerSave mode.

Indicator area

The Indicator area displays icons that notify you when you receive messages and indicate whether certain options and features are enabled. The icons are black when “on” and gray when “off”.

Table 6-2: Indicator Area icons

Icon Meaning

The SMS message indicator shows whether you have unread messages. A blinking icon indicates that there are one or more urgent or important unread messages. To display the Mobile Messenger window (in which the messages are displayed) select Tools > Mobile Messenger… or double- click the icon.
