Writing, Sending and Saving a Text Message

Within the Write messages menu you can write and edit text messages of up to 160 char- acters. For instructions on how to enter charac- ters, see chapter ‘Storing a phone number with a name’.

When you have finished writing your message, press Options to display the following func- tions: Send, Send by set (sends the mes- sage to a preselected set - see below), Save, (stores the message in the Outbox), Clear screen (removes all the characters that you have keyed in from the display).

You can save your own messages in the ‘Outbox’ submenu (Menu 1-2) for use at a later time.

NOTE 1: When sending messages via the SMS Network Service, your phone may display the words Message Sent.

This is an indication that the message has been sent by your phone to the mes- sage centre number programmed into your phone.

This is not an indication that the mes- sage has been received at the intended destination.

NOTE 2: In some countries it may be pos- sible to send messages between differ- ent GSM cellular networks, either within the same country or internationally.

Check with your home network operator or service provider to confirm if your SMS Service is capable of this operation.

Viewing your own messages

Once you are in the Messages menu, scroll to Outbox and press Select. Scroll to the de- sired message.

Pressing Read shows the message. Pressing Op- tions while you are reading a message allows access to the same functions as ‘Inbox’ (Menu 1- 1), except for Reply.

Message Settings (Menu 1-4)

Set 1 (Menus 1-4-1)1

A setting group or ‘set’ is a collection of the set- tings required for sending text messages.

You can, for example, send a text message as a fax (provided that this function is supported by your operator or service provider) by simply se- lecting the set in which you have defined the proper settings for fax transmissions.

Each set has its own submenu:

Message centre number

Use this menu to store the phone number of the message centre needed for sending text messages.

Key in or edit the phone number and confirm with OK.

Message sent as

Normally, this menu choice should be set to Text. Your messaging service may however offer you the facility of converting your text messages into alternative formats (e-mail, fax or paging) which are suitable for the equipment that will be receiving the mes- sage. Contact your service provider for avail- ability of this function.

Message validity

This network service allows you to set the length of time that your text messages will be stored at the message centre while attempts are made to deliver them to you.

Rename this set

Allows you to rename the set.

1.The total number of sets depends on how many sets your SIM card offers.
