time period after which the display will power down if the device remains inactive. This feature saves the battery and increases the communica- tor’s operation time. The time-out value can be between 2 to 15 minutes. The screen power- down cannot be turned off.

System sounds — System sounds are warning and error tones, arriving message tone, key click tones and alarm sounds. The available settings are:

All sounds — Ring (default)/ Beep / Silent/ Silent for. The All sounds setting affects in- coming call alerts and other alarms on both interfaces, with the exception of clock alarm. With Silent for, the communicator remains in Silent mode until the time you have entered there has passed (use 24-hour time format). Ringing volume — Level 1/2 (default)/3/4/5. Ringing tone — You can select one of the tones in the pop-up box or compose a special ringing tone for your telephone in the Extras application.

Key click — Off / Quiet (default)/ Loud. Warning tone — On (default) / Off. Application tones — Calendar alarm, Clock alarm, Received fax, Received SMS, Received e-mail.

For each of these individual settings you can set a specific ring type. You would then be able to tell by the ring whether you have re- ceived a fax or a short message, for example.

The clock alarm will sound regardless of the communicator’s status. For example, when a phone call is active and the communicator is used in handsfree operation, all sounds except the clock alarm are automatically turned off.

Locking the communicator

To prevent outgoing calls from being made, you can lock the communicator in the Security appli- cation’s main view.

To use the Lock system key in System security, the Autolock period setting (defined in System security, Settings) must be set to On.

Highlight Autolock period and press Change. Enter the correct lock code (provided in the sales package) to change the setting status.

If autolock is on, the communicator will lock automatically after the defined inactivity period. Press Lock system to lock the device manually at any time.

You can also lock the system from the phone in- terface Menu 5 8 (see Chapter 13 "Phone inter- face: Detailed menus list - Security options (Menu 5)" on page 13-11).

Unlocking the communicator

After the communicator has been locked, it can- not be used until the correct lock code is given. Incoming voice calls can, however, be answered via the phone interface.

Note: When the communicator is locked, it may be possible to make a call via the phone interface to the emergency number pro- grammed into your phone (e.g., 911 or other official emergency number).
