Motorola 2000X quick start Memory Management System, Proper Care and Cleaning

Memory Management System

The PageWriter 2000X Two-Way Wireless Communications Cen- ter internal memory management system automatically performs maintenance tasks. These tasks ensure sufficient memory is avail- able to receive incoming messages and to support your processing requirements. To maximize memory efficiency, messages are de- leted in the following order:

ÄMessages deleted during the cleanup process are not moved to the Trashcan; they are permanently deleted.

ÄUnread and alarmed messages are deleted from inboxes that contain 250 messages or if the Number of Messages cleanup option is selected and the limit for the number of messages has been reached.

Trashcan — Automatically configured to empty each night at midnight (you may specify the cleanup of inboxes and the Outbox, as well); midnight cleanup deletes messages placed in the Trashcan 24 to 48 hours earlier. Messages placed in the Trashcan within the last 24 hours are deleted at midnight the next day. The Trashcan is the first container the system empties when memory space is required (deleting as many messages as necessary to make room for incoming messages).

Outbox — Deletes all sent/unsaved messages from the transmis- sion area of the Outbox starting with the oldest message first. The transmission status is retained but the text of each message is deleted.

Main Inbox —Deletes all read messages from the Main Inbox starting with the oldest message first.

Personal Inboxes — Deletes all read messages from personal inboxes starting with the oldest message first.

Information Services Inboxes — Deletes all read messages from each information service inbox starting with the oldest mes- sage first.

Reminders and Alarmed Messages — Deletes any alarmed inbox message or Reminder where the alarm has already gone off; messages are deleted in the following order:

1.Main inbox

2.Personal inboxes

3.Information Services inboxes

4.Reminders

ÄAlarmed messages that are set for periodic alarm (e.g. the alarm goes off every week) will not be deleted.

Unread Messages — If memory space is still needed, deletes unread messages from the inboxes in the order described above.

ÄMessages in Address Book entries and locked messages are not subject to automatic deletion.

When a warning message is displayed, the PageWriter 2000X Two- Way Wireless Communications Center enables you to access the View Memory Usage screen. Once you have determined the area where cleanup may be most effective, you can select:

Cleanup All — Deletes all sent and read messages in all inboxes and outboxes.

Cleanup Inboxes — Deletes all read messages in each inbox and does not affect the trashcan or the outbox.
