Configuring Your Timeport P930 Two-Way Pager

Send/Receive — Full service coverage. Turns on the receiver and transmitter for two-way message transmission. Messages can be sent and received from your pager.

Receive Only — Basic Service coverage. Turns on only the receiver for one-way message transmis- sion. Messages can be received but not sent from your pager.

Off — Storing Messages. Turns off the transmitter and receiver. Messages cannot be sent or received.

Sometimes referred to as Hospital mode. The unit will never transmit while in this safe mode for environments with sensitive equipment such as CAT Scan and MRI equip- ment found in hospitals.

Off is recommended for airline travel. Radio transmissions can interfere with flight navigation and com- munications. Follow FAA regulations. Turn off the transmit- ter while on airplanes.

3. Select to return to the main screen.

ÄWhen the pager is in Off mode, messages are retained by the paging service until you change modes (Send/Receive or Receive Only).

TIP Off mode does not turn off your pager. It turns off the radio frequency (RF) transmission. You can still use the applica- tions on your pager to update your Address Book, schedule reminders to yourself, or compose messages to be sent at a later time.
