A high-speed (1X) packet data call is in progress.

Call Status Area

The Call Status Area displays messages related to the status or progress of a connection.

Where a duration timer is shown, timing begins when the call is initiated—not from the time the call is fully connected. This is a measure of the time the AirCard USB modem has been using the radio channel (a wireless network resource).

“Click this display to exit PowerSave mode” indicates that the AirCard USB modem could not find a system within a

15 minute interval. To conserve power, the AirCard USB modem reduces channel scanning to once every three minutes. To force the AirCard USB modem out of PowerSave mode, click in the Call Status Area. The AirCard USB modem performs a channel scan and, if no network is detected, returns to PowerSave mode.
