How Your PageWriter 2000X Pager Works

The PageWriter 2000X Two-Way Wireless Communications Cen- ter’s lightweight, wearable design allows you to open the flip and read your messages while the pager is still in the belt holster. Audio and vibrate alerts notify you of incoming and waiting messages.

The keyboard provides text entry capabilities that allow you to send full text messages. All this is combined with the ability to add applications, upgrade current applications, and, with the infrared interface in the Motorola Deluxe model, upload and download information to and from your computer.

TIP The PageWriter 2000X Two-Way Wireless Communications Center displays a blank screen to conserve energy during periods of inactivity. Press any key to awaken the pager.

The Flip

The front flip on the PageWriter 2000X Two-Way Wireless Com- munications Center houses and protects its LCD screen and anten- nae. Opening the flip awakens the pager, while closing the flip puts the screen into sleep mode. When in sleep mode, your PageWriter 2000X Two-Way Wireless Communications Center continues to work for you. It receives and stores incoming messages for access at your convenience. You can set audible, vibrating, or silent alerts to notify you when messages are received.

Press the NavDiscTM up or down to highlight an application. Continue pressing the NavDisc in the same direction and the wheel spins in that direction to display the next three applications.

TIP To select an application from the menu wheel without scroll- ing through the menu, press the first letter of the applica- tion’s name. The menu wheel spins to the first application beginning with the selected letter. These are called shortcuts. Shortcuts also work on menu lists such as your Message Area container list.

If more than one application or more than one list entry starts with the same letter, the shortcut takes you to the first occurrence of the letter. Press the letter again and the shortcut takes you to the next occurrence of the letter.

The Home screen also provides at a glance the basic status of your PageWriter 2000X Two-Way Wireless Communications Center, including:
