of your outgoing and incoming calls in the

 

call log. (The call log is displayed when you

 

select Tools > Call Log, and is described

 

above.)

 

This field allows you to specify the number

 

of calls retained. Select none, all, last 50

 

calls, or last 100 calls from the drop-down

 

menu.

 

 

Active NAM*

The AirCard allows you to configure and

Profile

use up to two accounts (with two different

 

phone numbers). This may be useful to

 

users who want, for example, to have one

 

account for business calls and one for

 

personal calls.

 

This drop-down menu lists these items:

 

Auto-Select,NAM 1, and NAM 2. If one

 

account has been activated, NAM 1 has a

 

phone number next to it, and if two

 

accounts have been activated, NAM 1 and

 

NAM 2 have phone numbers.

 

When Auto-Selectis in effect, the AirCard

 

uses the account most appropriate to your

 

location, based on the coverage of your

 

accounts.

To configure a second account (where only one account has been activated):

1.Select the option NAM 2 from this drop-down menu and click OK.

2.The Activation Wizard should launch. You can then configure a second account.

If two accounts are configured, both phone numbers should be displayed in this drop- down menu. To switch from one account to the other:

1.Select the phone number from the drop-down menu.

*NAM stands for Number Assignment Module and is information stored in the flash memory of the AirCard. The information includes your phone number and parameters specific to your service provider.
