Turning On and Off Your PagerWriter 2000X

The rechargeable battery in your PageWriter 2000X allows you to leave your pager turned on 24 hours a day and, depending upon usage, can sustain operation for approximately a week before requiring a recharge. However, your PageWriter 2000X works much like your computer. Periodically turning off your pager assists in clearing the random-access memory (RAM) and can help optimize your pager’s performance. Turning off your pager at night will also lengthen the time of your battery’s charge.

TIP Incoming messages are stored by the paging service until your pager is turned back on and ready to receive messages. Turn your pager off at night when you do not want to receive messages, and place the pager in the plugged-in charger so it will be fully charged and ready for use in the morning.
