2. Connect your laptop PC to your Sprint PCS Phone by
using the serial data cable. The cable adapter will
connect to a hand-held or palm-sized computing

䊳For complete details on how to install and use this
software, refer to the user guide in the Sprint PCS
Wireless Web Connection Kit you purchased.
Placing a Call
To place a call when you’re connected to the Sprint PCS
Wireless Web:
1. Make sure the cable is connected properly.
2. Open the Sprint PCS Dialer software or application on
your computer and place the call.
䊳The phone displays the number your computer is
calling and a “connecting” message is displayed.
䊳Once the call successfully connects, your phone’s
display shows you information on the status of the data
call.
Receiving Sprint PCS Wireless Calls
Most users use the Sprint PCS Wireless Web Connection to
place outgoing data/fax calls. But you can also set up your
Sprint PCS Phone to receive (host) data and fax calls.
Because each phone is different, the Sprint PCS Wireless
Web Connection Kit doesn't include instructions for how to
set up your phone to receive data and fax calls. Here's the
procedure to set up your Sprint PCS Phone to receive a
(mobile-terminated) data or fax call:
1. Select the menu option that enables incoming data/fax
calls. Note that incoming voice calls are not possible
when your Sprint PCS Phone is set to receive data/fax
calls.
